Trichomes Amber with Cure?

Hello RIU,

I have a puzzling question to ask, or better yet story to tell... I recently harvested my first cfl grow, and have been thoroughly enjoying the smoke. However i recently noticed that my weed has been getting increasingly potent in the curing jar... I harvested when most of my trichomes were cloudy... and i noticed at the bottom of the jars, there was plenty of white trichomes... when the buds first entered the jars they did have quite a heady buzz, and two bowls got me pretty baked. That was about 2 weeks ago... Now, the trichomes in the jar are very yellowish brown and the bud has me baked with just a few hits... im stoned as i type this and just a little puzzled.. i didnt think that the quality would improve that much! Is this norml?

yes. this is why curing is advocated so strongly.

Yes indeed it is normal.....

Its actually not getting more potient, a lot of the undesirable chemicals, like chlorophyll, are breaking down and dissapating. You are geting a purer smoke. THC and the like are not water soluble and therefore dont evaporate like water does.

And now you know...



....and knowing is half the battle!

yeah.... that helps contributes to the smoothness of the smoke..

more of the thc is turning into it's phsycoactive form while some breaks down into CBN and other cannabinoids...
THC isn't the holy gail people.. get that through your heads.... it's part of a team...




no street dealer cures.. they barely dry completely.. if they sell it wet they make more money.. it's heavier.. rat bastedssss
