After hanging wait until the fan leaves have shriveled and dried. Then clip all the fan leaves at the stem and rehang until the sugar leaves are brittle and the stem bends easliy but doesn't break. About 1 more day.If you wait til the stem breaks, you will have dry ass weed. Try to trim your buds while they r on the stem, makes it easy. And then clip each bud into a mason jar until the jar is 3/4 full. For the first 2 weeks you will want open the jar about 3 to 4 times and air out the gasses. Swish the jar around a lil and reseal. After 2 weeks do this once or twice a day. Up until 1 month. After that I suggest u open the jargons as lil as possible.

Wow thanks for the help. So im guessing trimming the plant befor harvest without a dark period is a no go then?

Why would you bother? In the dark, the buds may potentially need to pull stored goodness out of the leaves to make the alleged "increased" THC. As someone else has mentioned, the difference will never be enough to notice. The 1,700 hours you have just spent flowering the plant, and its genetics, will determine the basic THC level. 72hrs of darkness ain't going to make that big a difference outside of a lab mass spectrometer...

miss troll, perhaps you are not as stupid as i first thought
