+rep- - best method for quick taste test drying. week 9 how much longer?

Hey riu i would like to know the way you guys taste test your buds. well your method that is. Im not looking for a super fast way to taste test(like microwaving) but is there a god way to have the bud smokeable n a good day or two. Also my girl is at 9 weeks flowering today i figure i have about 2-2 1/2 more weeks of flowering but would like some experts to judge them and lemme know. thansk for the help and I have some rep for anyone who has anything helpful to say.

The last pic is a pic of the two main colas a couple weeks ago dont have a recent but there are much further along. the rest are just some budshots lemme know what you guys think the pics are from yesterday

personally i would start flushing. what strain is that??? 9 weeks + is too long to wait ..lol. i don't have a quick drying method. leave it out and let it dry.

its bagseed its a astiva flowering time 10-12 weeks i believe trichs are still clear some milky i may have seena couple amber looking onez

at least two more weeks, maybe three

thats whaat i was thinking. i gave her her last feeding today and plan on flushing for the remainder of her life. was this a good idea? Im using biocannas organics lineup for flowering but i did use fox farm for veg.

Id give it at least another week of nutes, leaning more towards two and a week of flush. all depends how quickly they fill out and the trichs develop

so you think my last feeding should be this coming friday sorry for the questions first grow and harvest. i hooked it up with rep thanks for all your help.

Id prob give her two more, one this week and one next week. see how she looks then. if she's real close then flush. You've waited this long. Sativa is some dank ass smoke but you gotta pay the price of patience. Don't wanna waste all that time by cutting early.

o i would never dream of it. i have patience(for these type of things at least) plus my girl woul kill me. She sys if your gonna do it then to it right. ive been checking trichs but kinda hard with the microscope(havent got the hang of it) im thinking theres some cloudy most still clear and i swear i saw a amber one or two. You think i was just seeing things or is this possible at 9 weeks for a sativa?

Click to expand...

A little trick i learned is to take cut a little piece of bud leaf off from around the area you want to check. Put it on a white paper plate and lay it down on a table... Much easier to focus.

i have two main colas about 16" long and another cola that's getting fat. cant see em in the last pic but some of the close ups ae from them. should i expect to cute and dry these buds first since there closest to the lights. or should the whole plant finish out at the same time?

Cut the Colas first if you don't need the space. Move the lights closer and Let the rest of the bud finish up.

i was thinking this but i planned on doing it next week. kinda afraid of trimming and messing something up. probably being a bit to cautious. i may actually try this tomorrow i really wanna know whats up with the trichs. would give ou more rep but cant seeing as your the only one sticking with me

yea i figured id cut the bigger ones first and then give the lower buds some close uo lighting for the last week or however long it takes them to finish up.

thanks for re ensuring me on my theories

no problem man

do you think you can guess a yield. Pretty sure this is my last question

no idea man... Good luck with it.

appreciate it

well the answer to your question I would have to say is sun dry 2 days vs 6-7 "taste test mind you"
