bodhi seeds

yes, but not as bright of a pungent funk as room temp cured, but more flavorful than room temp cured. my thoughts of the least few years has been if you can smell it you are losing it. those terps that are evaporating & gassing off into the atmosphere should be in my lungs & mind. sorry for sounding like a hippie if i came across that way.
This is extremely interesting. I always enjoy fresh weed the most, and often lose affection for what I loved after some months in jars. Related?

Do you ever put a lid on those jars in the freezer? And why would anyone have a problem with hippies?

all the bodhi i ran in 2016 i freezer cured half of it. dried for 7 days, then trimmed & placed in my normal glass jars, & left the tops off open in the freezer. i think the correct terminology would be called "sublimation"? like ice cubes that evaporate in the freezer, how the water transfers from a solid to gas, easy stuff, learned from a fellow on another site... preserving more terps instead of doing a room temp cure.
ive found refrigerated/frozen weed gives me headaches?

Real close to chopping ASS. She is loud when touched at all and is sour lemon and solvent like fuel terps that wrinkle the nose and sting the eyes. All that with some country skunk. Amber trichs in all scope shots with maybe 1/4 still clear. Plant is fading fast with some purples but mostly just yellowing. Average size plant with nice semi hard nugs and great bud/junk ratio. Waited till now to see if she is seeded from Mr. Space Monkey.

the color does not change after being in the freezer, so no golden hues to the nugs like room temp cured after a couple months. after about 35-45 days i screw the ball lid on or close the clasp, & only open them for immediate consumption. one problem i have ran into is the moisture content coming out of the freezer, the space cake got kinda spongey while the space monkey, bluberry hashplant, dream beaver, jungle spice, cobra lips, & lazy lighting all stayed dense. i guess it was actually my fault, maybe space cake needed a 12 day dry.

oh damn, now i have to figure out why. only smoke that produced headaches for me was over fertilized & foliar fed by me too late in the cycle, but also it could have been the combo of tops & combustion instead of vaping or a bong like normally.

Freezing your weed can make the trichomes brittle and break off. Also it doesn’t decarboxalate in the freezer so THC-A isn’t converted into THC. Just sayin’.
as we all know, resin glands can break off if disturbed regardless of temp, but i suppose if all of the moisture is not shed yet they will become more brittle if they are in the freezer & jostled around.

Sounds nice you have any shots of her?

i can say the 'weed' in question was not over fertilized, as far as vaping goes...never done it, bongs & joints for me, only froze 3 different lots over 5 years, each batch seemed to offer headaches? but we is all different aint we? possibly a rare occurrence?

I figure it's worth risking a jar with the just chopped Satsuma. Will do a comparison smoke in a couple of months.
why not but not for me? that was more than 20yrs ago when i froze the gear, have developed migraines this last 10 yrs and cant bear the thought of taking anything that offers headaches...even the thought of the Headband strain turns me off with its painful name!

It ain't frozen, but it's a little frosty. ;) Lemon Diesel x OMG testers.

#6 is a possible keeper, here at harvest on day 63.

Live nugs.

Good colors from overnight lows in the 50s.

In the jar she's sweet berry and a hint of citrus candy. Ground up, she turns on this powerhouse berry and coffee candy smell.

And she's the strongest reveg I've seen in awhile. She didn't go thru an ugly leaf phase. This is 21 days after harvest, same pot with an inch of mulch on top.2018-02-05 LDOMG-6 21rv.jpg

I honestly don't know if I'll keep any of this cross, but I did collect pollen for some F2. Here's the frosty male outside at Thanksgiving, big balls and all. Day 17.

Do you normally keep that much bud on the plant for reveg? I've never done one before but I am very interested. It would certainly save time and space compared to trying to clone everything that "might" be good. Would much rather just reveg a stellar plant after it's been grown and smoke tested.

I can say for most plants, especially the wide leave dominant varieties, its a good idea to leave as much of the plant structure in tact for a vigourous reveg. In past attempts i have made the mistake of not leaving enough plant mass, and they were total failures. Also have to be much more tactful in not soaking the medium too much too often or risk rot and eventual plant death.

Some of my plants I've regenerated, have died off from the root zone.
