Sorry, I guess I've been lax in the Bud Porn dept...

Here's a few from my last chop job. I'd read a post here recently on curing - one person mentioned they put them in a vase for a day or 2 before drying to improve flavor??
I thought I'd give it try... maybe it's similar to water curing?

Looks real good Pullin! About the vase thing, that makes sense! Look into plant fermentation/curing. Riddleme on this site has done a lot of research and posted his findings, which you may find very interesting. You will be VERY intrigued if you go down this path, and the rewards are MUCH better!!

And it is similar to water curing, but there are a few different methods of water curing. If you follow into it, you may never have to cure weed in jars again (but maybe store in jars still)

NiiCE! bet things are smelling great !
That's one of the really nice things about perpetual grows which shouldn't be underestimated. Low smell factor.
I only have 2 plants that are really stinky at any one time (and they do smell GREAT :) ). Covering the odor of 2 or 3 consistantly stinky plants is way easier than covering for a dozen or more plants for a few weeks.

QFT, I am in no big rush to (finally) get my carbon filters. It stunk pretty bad when I had 5 flowering, and stunk worse when I had 3 flowering and 1 hanging/drying,... but it is almost insignificant now with 4 plants in flower under 30 days currently and 4 in veg. Once I add 2ea 6" x 12" filters (1 for veg, 1 for flower) the smell should be all but gone. A block of ona gel should remove the excess when hanging/trimming (I hope).

hmm thats a trip with the buds in the water like that... let me know how they come out..
On early examination and tastings, can't say I noticed any real difference. Certainly not worse or bad in any way - I'm gonna play with it more. Well, off to study!!bongsmilie

So I snipped a bud off Pineapple Chunk and dried it up. quick-dried and uncured it was pretty impressive. It's advertised as finishing in 55 days which is about where it is now, I'm planning on taking her to about 75 days. The colas are still kinda scrawny look'n -I hope they will bulk up in the last couple weeks.
