This is my first grow did awsome lol now my first harvest can someone please tell me how to make my buds rock hard and dry i have white widow clones so i dont really want to fuck up i need good dry and i have other outdoor plants should i do different to them ?

Buds get rock hard during the grow and more specifically during the last few weeks of flower....if you have harvested and they are not hard nugs there is nothing you can do to change that other than compressing it....which is not a good idea.
More light = harder, thicker, denser buds.

Dry them in a dark area either hung individually or on a rack of some sorts with good ventilation but not any wind or breeze hitting them directly.....they are ready when the stems snap but before they break, somewhere around 3 to 10 days depending on bud size and girth.

Hope this helps

I may be wrong, but I am pretty sure how dense your buds are depend on the strain and growing conditions.

I'll testify the second. Had two plants just finish up (smoking a bowl of one currently) and one was full Sativa, the other, full indica (from what i could tell... dont jump my shit bout hybrids) and one had nugs i could put an eye out with, and the other has nugs i could sop the blood up with later...

Its plant, conditions, ammount of light (We had two T-5's so dont tell me this BS about "DENSE NUGS = HPS!"), and humidity.

Never said anything about HPS=more or tighter nugs.....What I did say and is proven is that more light or lumens= more and tighter nugs. Comparing a sativa to an indica is not a fair comparison, sativas almost always be fluffier and not as dense when grown indoors. Yes strain plays a big part.....but take a strain that produces dense buds and throw it under some cfl's versus the same strain and pheno grown under proper lighting and you will see a difference in the density. If that wasn't the case I doubt most people would be spending the cash they do on gear to grow and just pop a single cfl in a socket and call it a day.

Theres a product that supposed harden ur buds called gravity... I bought some for this grow but ur supposed to have perfect plants when u use it.. I have some nutrient burn so i m gonna leave it out this run... If u get it be carefull it can kill ur plant quick style from what ive read about it

Sorry, wasnt aimed at you... i know what your saying tho...

But it matters not the source of light, it only matters how much and of what light...

Ok whoever says light doesn't make a difference in bud density and growth is crazy. It take alot of cfls to get 55k lumens and thats only one 400 watt hps bulb...
