the first one i grew did that, it was still good smoke, but i never could have sold it to anyone. and you won't get a good final weight. these are just quite touchy about stress. they don't like it and will let you know about it.
this second one is forming up much better, because i didn't do a couple of the things that stressed the first one.

these are forming up so much nicer than the first run. got a little room, so i started the other 3 seeds of each i have.
they like the adding soil method a lot better than transplanting, and i've been keeping the nutes down to 200 ppm every third watering.
they're both( the BDA and the BSA) getting 11 hours a day of 600 watt hps, then back into the veg tent for 300 watts of t5s for the rest of the day IMG_20181010_191209.jpg IMG_20181010_191217.jpg IMG_20181010_191221.jpgIMG_20181010_234421.jpg

Going to chop mine tonight. I certainly didn't do as well as most of you. Mine went from 18hrs of 130w CFL to 12 hrs of 600w of HPS to kicked outside and handled it well. I really did not take much care of them and they did play 2nd fiddle to the photo's I was running. It was my first time growing autos and I really didn't have a clue. I have the rest germing and will put them around the gardens. (spring here). The Brooklyns I didn't get a handle on and are not worth mentioning in the dedicated thread. I have popped more of those and will post there if they (and me) do better.

I was very happy with The Blue Dreams after a couple of weeks cure the taste is a bit fruity the nose was great and the high is strong (Great job Fast Buds) I have 2 more that i am starting today not sure of the methods but i will post as soon as i decide.
When your curing how long so u open the jar each day the first week second week and so on mine seems like it is lacking smell. I let it dry 4 days been in jar about a week I'm opening once a day for a few min. I feel like the cure is where I lack knowledge. Yes I would lst. Again. If I would of had more room my harvest would of been alot bigger because of how bushy they were I could only bend them over so far till I had to give up on the bending

Everyone has there own method but this is how i do it. Place the trimmed buds into some type of airtight container. Wide mouth quart-size canning jars are the most commonly used container, Seal the containers and place them in a cool, dry, dark spot. During the first week, open the containers several times per day and let the flowers “breathe” for a few minutes.
If you notice the odor of ammonia when opening a container, it means the buds are not dry enough to be cured and anaerobic bacteria are consuming them, which will lead to moldy, rotten cannabis. After the first week, you will only need to open the containers once every few days or so. After 2 to 3 weeks in containers, your cannabis will be cured enough to provide a quality experience, but 4 to 8 weeks of cure time will improve it even more. Some strains benefit from 6 months or more of curing.
