Hey guys,

Sorry I haven't posted in a bit! I'm just about ready to harvest - I did a flush last week and I think they're about good to go. In any case, I don't want to wait any longer. Almost all the hairs are orange. I don't have a magnifying glass, so I can't get a real good look at the trichomes, but I think they are milky-white. I'm at about 8.5 weeks now.

for all your help so far!

Does curing affect potency?

Curing can seemingly affect potency because often the first time the buds feel "dry", they really aren't. Once they start to cure and sweat, you will see how much moisture is left. Curing is mostly for aroma and taste, but the first week after "drying" will still have some effect on the...

How Do I Store my Harvest to Maintain Quality?

The Pump n Seal which was sold on TV was an excellent way to vacuum seal and reseal jars and other airtight containers. High Times advertises a device called "It Sucks" and looks to be the same thing. It is a small hand held vacuum pump which is placed over an adhesive tab that is placed over a...
