View Full Version : Drying in my flowering room

Hey everyone.I have a couple of questions that I was hopeful you all could help me out with.

1. I am taking down the plants in the pictures tonight.I always trim the whole plant in the pot,then cut it,hang it and dry it that way.I dont have drawers or anything to put the buds on and this has always worked for me.
My dilemma is this- I have always waited until I was done drying/hanging my plants and then moved the next gals into the room.Im not able to do that this time as I have several white strains and 4 Romulan's that are all about 4 weeks into flowering.In the past I would just hang em' turn out the lights and check on em' in 4-5 days or so,bag em,and move em' out and in with the new.
So what I am doing now,or trying is to wrap each hanging plant with brown shipping paper/newspapers in a corner.I do have a room that is dark all the time but I cant control temps and humidity plus the smell is just out of control.I took and clipped a little scrappy bud off the bottom and gave it to my partner and it stunk out her whole kitchen.So I guess my question is will this work or do I need to give another room a try where i dont have control over temps and humidity?What do you all think.I guess I should have thought this through before I started chopping or even 4 weeks ago when I moved the new gals in.

2. The gals I am taking down now are easily the stickiest,stinkiest,and dense buds I have ever grown,did I say how stinky they were?I got ten clones from a buddy who got them from the co-op in Seattle and they are called "LePew".I have no idea about their background other than its highly indica dominant. Some of the leaves were bigger than both of my hands put together,did I mention how stinky these are.Widows are supposed to be pretty sticky but they arent even close (at least mine) to the odor from these gals.Has anyone ever heard of this strain?

Im going to try my hand at breeding after March and I am going to use these girls and Im thinking about a Romulan male.Oh,by the way my partner gets to be my test pilot on new strains.After two pulls I could tell by her face that we had a winner,woo hoo.Super potent and couchlocked (about 20% amber).Did I mention how much they stink?haha.

Ok,have a good night everyone,take care,be well,and most of all be safe.

p.s. I apologize for the shitty photography.
