Yup...definitely smoke that bad boy!

Everyone SAYS not to sample, but 95 percent of growers do it.

Snatch a bud every now and then, it doesn't kill the plant; any "loss of weight" at the end of flowering would be minute at least.

It's a plant.....put it to work!

trichomes are not thc... trichomes on a plant is just its glands ......although they do contain concentrated amounts of thc

well i dried and cured my little nug for about a week. I know that is not long enough for a proper dry and cure but this was a pretty small nug. It looked and felt right but it was a little dark green still ( the chlorophyl im assuming) It didnt smell very dank like it did when I first cut it, more like hay. Hairs were red and had crystals. It didn't smoke to harsh, it was actually suprisingly smooth. Got about two to three good hits. Got mildly toasted, not totally blazed but nicely buzzed. Not bad. I hope that means when it is mature and fully cured it should be pretty decent. Does anyone know if curing makes the smell nice and dank. Mine smelled like hay, if I cured it longer would it smell more dank?

As for quick drying, i just wrap it up in a little foil and heat my oven to about 150-175 degrees and give them about 10 -15 minutes or more depending on the amount of bud and how dry you want it. Don't let it stay in for to long or let it get too hot as heat will cause the thc to detereorate. Check it about every 5-10 minutes. It will taste kinda harsh and might not get you exceedingly high. Better than nothing though.

Put the bud in the microwave for 2 or 3 seconds at a time and let it cool down after every cycle. You don't want to COOK the bud, just heat it, so the moisture will be pulled from the inside.

Repeat this 4 or 5 times and then let the bud sit out overnight. Next day, frosty nugs

Curing will definitely help with the taste and will overall improve your buds by a DECENT amount. Curing is definitely worth the time.

It's the difference between kind buds and street weed...most commercial growers don't have the means to jar cure however many pounds of bud they have.

Every personal grower that spends 3-4 months on their plants should add extra time on for curing to make all the work and wait worthwhile!

if you squeeze the buds and there dry to the touch and bounce back out when you squeeze them but dont go crushing them just lightly squeeze them also i would cure them properly whats the point in growing you cannabis for a long time and then ruining the end product buy slapping it in the over or microwave lol just no point
