man i cant wait to get the dry weight on that!! I say 20 ounces.....you have 3 plants right? are they all around they same height?

Well most of the buds are drying or curing now, so we'll see about the weight. 2 oz might be a more realistic estimate...

I know its a little late Jerry, but my buds are also feeling dry. I'm 52 days into flowering bagseed indica dominant. A few days ago my buds began to foxtail which is somthing I've never heard or seen. I started to sorta push the small tops out a bit and you can kind of feel them breaking... IDK. Kind of like breaking up bud. Well I watered and problem has somwhat been handled, still kinda dry though. I've stopped watering till harvest which should be about a week. Just wanted to share my experience brotha. " I bought Jerry Garcia in a bag maaannnn!!!"

Right on, my cat was an abandoned stray from my previous apartment. All black with bright green eyes. Potty trained already when I found her. Perfect cat, couldn't ask for a better pet.

Yeah, it turned out to not be as much of a problem as I made it out to be. They ended up drying, curing and smoking just fine!

Mine doesn't appear to be nearly as bad as your situation though. Sounds like they should make it though to harvest though. On the bright side you won't have to worry as much about mold if they're already desiccating themselves...
