Hey, I'm about 7-14 days from harvest and am curious if I should only give ph'd water so the plant uses up all of it's available nutrients that remain in the plant tissue for a smoother smoke?
This is only my second hempy grow and my last grow had no pre harvest leech. The result was fantastic flowers, but when you smoked a bowl, it burned to a hard black ash. 1 of 2 things occurred and I'm not sure which it was. Either a) The very large (thc bomb produces very large flowers) buds were dried too quickly which locked chlorophyll and starches into the final product. Typically with a slow dry, the chlorophyll evaporates slowly and starches convert to sugars. Or b) I used excessive amounts of P & K in flower which remained in the plant tissue upon harvest. From my understanding of plant nutrition and how plants work, theory A seems to be the most plausible.
What do y'all think?
