o ok cool . yea then yea all the calyxes are real good size all about the same. although its weird some buds are more calyxy and you can really see the shape of each calyxe itself , others on the same plant i might add are more full and the calyxes seem like they opened up with more pistils or something and u dont just see a horny lookin bud but more of a full round bud . dont no why itd be taht different on the same plant tho but thats what its like

So. I cut them down yesterday. Rather a friend of mine did it for me. I ended up breaking my leg on my camping trip. No. Pics yet. Will update after my next surgery. As I can't move around to get new info or really get to the comp. My surgery is on the 22nd n ill be out for a few days after that.

So its been two days drying in the closet hangin from strings. Sucks that I put in all this work to my girls n I wasn't even the one able to harvest cuz of this stupid accident.

My buddy didn't really trim the buds yet he just cut off all the fan leaves n leaves off bud with a stem. Its all in a closet with the door cracked bout 4-5 inces with a fan blowin in recirculating. I'm told its around 75-85. How do u guys think it'll take to dry. At least till I put em in paper bags. I was plannin on trimmin the rest and puttin them in the bags around thursday or friday. Do u think that's too long?

Was gunna leave in bags cracked open for like 2 days then close up for another 2 or 3. Then to jarss. Alll pending on how the buds look of course. I won't have pics till later next weekend maybe. I'm stayin wit my fam cuz I'm immobile and shit wit my fucked up leg till I get it fixed next week and soon after that. Let me know what u guys think bout my estimated drying time n curing.

I didn't see the harvest but my buddy says its a lot! But I'm skeptical. I think round 7 zips for my 9 plants. Maybe 8. I ono. Let me know what u think roll its!

It always looks like a lot 'til the 3-4 day of drying,you loose about 75% of the weight...I like to dry in 70-75 degree temp range anything higher and they dry too fast for my liking...so bout 5-7 day dry and straight to the jars no paperbag method for me....as a matter a fact I got some drying right now that is just bout ready to smoke :bigjoint:......

Yea. That 75 % is pretty right on I think even tho I've never tested it. I saw everything last night. I think ill have 7 zips. Off 9 plants is really shitty but o well. I'm gunna look at em again on fri or saturdayn then it'll be 6 or 7 days. They were sittin at 79 and 45 rh last night round 9. So I think they are on the right track. They dried a lil bit its only been 3 days and they were still real wet buds. No pics yet. Didn't get very good ones.

70 degree temps at 35-37% RH is optimal for drying.... for 10-14 days (7 days I suppose for really airy buds) then into jars ;).... you can do bag method or whatever method floats your boat, ;)........

So really airy buds as in to dry or ? And I can't change my temps at all. Is it too hot I guess. Or what do you think longer?
