Default water cure pound and a half finished weight

I just finished a water cure. It was 7 OG Kush plants. I had a few problems with spider mites and wasn't happy with the job the soapy water was doing so I researched it and decided to do a water cure. I thought if there were any of those little critters in there, I didn't want to smoke them and I liked the idea of smoking less because it's more potent. I used tap water because I liked the idea of the chlorine being in there. I did it for 7 days and changed the water everyday. Then I made a drying room and hung them with a heater on low. Took about 24 hours. I ended up with a little more than a pound and a half. I think it smells killer and it's super stoney bud. I've noticed one thing though. I get cotton mouth like a mother! I haven't had that for years!

no the trics are not water soluble. It takes, heat or alcohol to get them out. I checked out my finished buds with my microscope to be sure and they were still there.

I'll take pictures with my microscope later today. I wish I would have weighed it before it was done. I didn't expect such a high yield. I feel really good about it. Clean potent tasty weed. And it's a lot faster in the curing process. Changing the water everyday was a hassle but I really really didn't want to smoke any of those little white spidies!

I want to see pics of this water cured bud. Water curing ruins the taste/smell/bag appeal of green. I know first hand.

I just did some water cured bud too. Only about 2 ounces. It came out very nice. But for some people it won't work because they want the smell. I like it becuase the smoke is VERY smooth.

I think the smell is very nice and the color on the hairs is much more pronounced. Yes it looks different because of the smaller amount of chlorophyll left and that's why it's more potent. I think if you're growing for yourself, this is a good option. If you're into quantity, maybe not but in my mind, the jury is out on that.

Not sure what they are. Should I be? I'd be into meeting local growers.
