I just sampled a lil side nug and dried it in the microwave on defrost for 1min and they were sticky as fuck but the smell was grassish in parts..and the smoke what less than decent and but i got a lil head high. But i just had to sample a lil. Now im waiting it out,old turkey till then. lol im seriously gonna try tho.
So...Hang dry for whatever days untill crisp on the outside then jar it for a week"open everyday to check/rotate" so 2 weeks tops.
But the other 3 ill do the same but paperbag it after the hang.

Leaves are drooping cause it's overweatered. Won't really hurt the plant at this stage of the game cause you're close, but will just be extra water weight that will have to be dried out when you cure. Just my 2 cents. Peace.

Your to close to harvest to make drastic changes. Let her ripen you might not get the yield you really wanted but be patient and it might make up in potency.

Shitty...i already started adding nutes again...
and no one never told me i was overwatering, b/c of the leaves drooping and curling, FUCK!!! someone told me that was normal coming to the end. I water everyother day, gotta dry it out for what ummm 4 days???? but i DO NOT want to dry them out cause thats very bad correct?

So question?
Does it really matter if u are using 2700k and 6500k together threw the whole grow?
im using cfl's currently

it doesnt matter if you use them through out the whole grow. doesnt change anything except that your giving the plant more than 1 spectrum of light. 1 it used for flowering the other for veg growth.

Looks good dude! I agree..your plants do look over watered but youlll be ok!!!! Good one!!!!

You can quick dry using a food dehydrator for 24 hrs. You can also FREEZE DRY. Get a jar and put some dry ice in the bottom and then a equal amount of weed on top. Seal the jar and put it in the freezer until the dry ice is gone. The buds will be dry when the dry ice is gone.This method retains potency and freshness. The smoke has a mint-like taste because the chlorophyll does not break down.

lookgs good bro there fine

Ok wait a sec... ok if there drooping and curling there overwatered.
if there droopy there underwatered? How the fuck am i going to recover from this? I already dried them out for 3 days and there looking "better" so now im watering every 2 days, keep in mind the plants im talking about this whole time are my other plants"3" not the one on this forum..But there having the same problem thats why im asking. Ok back to what i was saying. So if there still curled under what do i do. Someone said or u did about a mosture meter, i got one. what should the mosture be at when need water and what it should say after i water?
Ill post updated pics"bloomers" and the new grow pics...
