I'll be in NYC in a couple of weeks visiting family. They are closing down all transit there this evening. Sure am glad that I am not flying anytime soon!

I'm an outdoor grower so that's not a type of dry I can entertain. I will mention that I did use the last days light dep of 2 plants to try it (I could only get two out of the ground intact because I had submerged their containers at planting). One I gave 1 day dark and the other nearly 3. I...

Those are excellent! If I were using the bins for more than a couple of weeks, I'd have to have gotten a few of those. For long term storage, I opted for 5 gal buckets with gamma lids. Each bucket holds up to 2.5# and the gamma seals are absolutely water tight (I had to have my husband install...

Airtight is best (necessary if long term) but I just threw them into random bins so they can start to cure. I'm trying to get them into the 5 gal buckets pretty quick (only two left to fill) and fine trim later. In this way, I can trim at my liesure. A couple of hours each afternoon is all I...

They are curing in the bins. They don't have to be trimmed to start curing. Oh yeah, and I rough chopped a few plants into freezer backs for hash. That was quick :)

^^ Tell me about it ... I've been breaking them down and tossing the branches into bins untrimmed (checking humidity and airing if needed) while they await jarring (so they don't overdry). Then I'm close trimming the best buds for 1/2 gal jars and rough trimming the rest into 5 gal buckets. It's...

That must have been before the "shoe bomber". Didn't they see Midnight Express??

Via con dios! I'd love to do this but even with a card just wouldn't have the balls (if I had balls to begin with, lol). I won't even get into a car with a joint these days.

One try at filling the iolite and I realized it was not for me (super expensive butane everywhere, ugh). I returned my iolite a couple of weeks ago and got a flightbox. I love it but I don't feel that it processes my material anywhere near as well as my arizer extreme. I go slow but I have to...

They need to recover from the supercropping to benefit from the process. This can take a few days or longer in which energies will be diverted from flower production to wound healing. It's best to get all of this out of the way by the second week of flower in order to give your ladies an...

I'm surprised you are insulting one of the few women on RIU. You must be gay. Hopefully your neighbors are too so you can bend over when they ask you what that smell is.

Yeah - Start them early and put them into the ground but not before June 1. Mulch the heck out of them and don't plant them closer than 6' on center.

Yeah, it's definitely on the late side to supercrop. That's why you are not seeing the recovery you can generally expect. Don't worry about it. Just leave the plant to finish.

I could not get to my plants fast enough after they were damaged by frost. Lost about 2.25 plants (1.5-2#) to rot or about 10% of my crop. I could have got it all in if I hustled but it was hectic so I let some crappy ones go and concentrated on getting the best ones in ...

Yeah, that purple one is way cool - what's the strain?

Hmm, I doubt you can control the smell to that extent. Hope your neighbors are cool!

^^I hear ya - I am using various drying and curing techniques as seems appropriate. I have to say, I'm not noticing too much of a difference yet, but I'm sure I will learn a lot processing this harvest - my biggest by about 500%, lol

I just keep the scruff off the bottom 12-18 inches. The fans will drop naturally. That whole thing about cutting fans for light is a myth, IMO (and others, such as Rosenthal, agree). If you pick fruit (and buds are the fruit of cannabis), you know that you will find some of the juicyest berries...

According to Rosenthal, terpenes evaporate above 70%. They are responsible for most of the smell. I have been planning my harvesting and drying around that to try and retain as much of the natural fragrance as I can. Store indoors or in a cool dark place while curing. Looking forward to hearing...

Soy beans are too low for cover.
