should i cure these?

[sourdieselyumyum]

are these worth curing would I notice much of a difference or could I smoke after drying

 

[GreenSummit]

curing would probably help, but honostly if that all you yielded there is really no point, just smoke it and read up, get educated, and do better next time

 

[DeeTee]

I'd let it cure for 1 week so at least it will taste good for smoking, wouldn't hurt, best of luck, is this your first grow?

that was just the little popcorn buds that weren't getting very much light on bottom of plant around week 5 of flower

They won't have much or any THC in them.

To verify whether they have THC, take a look at the trichomes with a microscope. If they are clear, they contain no THC, and won't get you high.

 

[DeeTee]

Still it wouldn't hurt to cure a little, they'll taste better and who knows, you might get a little buzz from them, why waste them.

 

[WayBaked]

They were cut at 5 weeks into flower, the flowers are immature. You can smoke all the precursor cannabinoids you want, you won't get high. If the trichomes are clear there's no THC or CBD.

shit, i mean by all means wait, but ive gotten high as shit off clear trics"immature bud"

Why did you harvest the popcorn buds? Im sensing...wait, wait...Its coming to me...I can see it....Im sensing, im sensing...A first grow..with..wait...wait...waiiiiit...a bit of over-excitement!

I think im psychic...

 

[sourdieselyumyum]

no I figured it would give the others more energy that were getting more light

 

[dl290485]

I think the larger effect you would of produced is stress to the plant

 

[CruzinPenguin]

Might as well cure em.. And you're partially right about directing energy and nutrients to the top but you should of cut off all that right before flowering so that you didn't stress the plant during the most important time. It'll be okay but it will hurt your yield.. live and learn. You'll do better next time bud.

if it were me, with my habits, that amount would be smoked up long before it had a chance to get a decent cure

 

[jamezsr]

of course
cure them and roll them up

 

[sourdieselyumyum]

I pinched a little off a bud and put it in 1 hitter and it tasted bad not really harsh but taste was garbage they smell pretty decent it sweet mango from ghs will taste get better after bout a week of dry and 10 day cure?

Yes, cure them. Go through the process and learn. Good Luck and Happy Growing. There's no grass/hay smell with proper drying and curing. I have no charcoal in my piece tonight, just grey ash. Patience can be just as challenging to a new grower as the whole process.
