I had the same problem with my VK. Shit was light green but after a few months of curing (properly) they turned brownish.
how do i keep the buds to stay green and not turn brown?

I believe its the break down of chlorophyll and sugars that change the color of the bud.
Someone in here with a brain.. good to know.
Your correct secretweapon. The buds are SUPPOSE to change color.. they should lose their green pigmentation (color). This is indeed the evaporation of the chlorophyll. Which is a GOOD thing people.. a good thing!
Ughhh.. swear to god man.. some of you people just have no clue. I'm starting to get frustrated with all the noobs around here.. I better get off here and go chill.
peace

then how do i get a bag of neon geen dry as dry can be and still smoke good?
Buds will turn brownish as they die and breakdown from various factors over time. Ive personally had this happen with multiple strains ive stored for around 3-4 months. ...heat, light, oxygen all break down thc and the bud faster. Keep em in vac sealed airtight glass jars in a cool dark place with 40-50% ambient room rH% and something like 65-70 degrees F. This will help them last much longer. Also google violiv glass jars. They work. I ran two zips in two 400mL violivs that i sat in a sunny windowsill vs two zips in clear glass in a room. Violiv buds werent brown after 3 months likethe others were. Same strain all from same source, all same age buds harvested at the same time.

Wow man chill out! This website is made for people sharing info and personal experience, not for people who already know everything to slide through and flame other, less experienced growers.. why do you even sign on to this website if you're not trying to learn something new or help someone out. You must be suffering man, I truly feel bad for people like you.
Im wondering though, Goonies I have the same prob as you, my buds are turning all dark with the exception of the crystals. I would prefer if they would keep their lime green color, and still smell and taste good and smoke smooth, just like buds that I purchase in medical dispensaries do. Do I need to use a dehumidifier to dry faster or something? Or do i need to withhold watering my plant so it dries faster. I wonder.. anyone have any ideas?
