This bud is in its third day of drying (a test bud before harvest), and the pistols that were white before cut, are now turning yellow. I really don't have any particular question about this, but more of a curiousity... Can anyone explain this? Experienced it? Normal?
This is a first time grow, by the way. I've included the best pics that I can get.
Very common. If the pistils were mostly white at harvest though, you may have cut too soon. Everyone has preferences, but I think I would have waited.
Yes...the bud keeps growing slightly for a little while after you've harvested...well maybe growings a bad word choice....it keeps maturing. Perfectly normal. Watch it do this with magnification with daily checks...it's cool!
Just curious, what strain is that? :smokin:

That's what it's all about, eh? :thumbsup: How about elaborating on the smoke test...1 hit? 2 hit? Taste? Every single bagseed plant I have ever grown was soooo much better than the bag it came from...makes ya wonder how they eff it up in packing/shipping so bad...
Yeah, definitely a feeling of satisfaction.Quote:

It is not so much packing /shipping as it is the way it is dried and stored. Most every kind of merc around here never is completely dried and I swear to god it gets "coated" or "sprayed" with something. I can take a 10 week flowering strain, hack it down after 6 weeks and still kick the shit out of anything around here. The biggest difference in it all is the grower. I give a shit about the quality of what I grow and want the best I can get but the others just want cash and dont care.Quote:

Once you harvest the white hairs will turn orange red as it is dried and cured. Tooooo quick a dry and you will lock in the hairs to white or yellow. So do the slow dry.
I'm with tinytoon, I can cut it early as hell and still nothing around here compares but we are in a not so friendly place.
I think the stuff they are spraying on the weed is either small time punks spraying sugar on them or Big time spraying that fake leagal bud crap on them. My bro-in law brought something by for me to check out. said it was as good as mine. It turned out not to be mmj and some of the leagal buds he was trying to pull a fast one. It had a very very clean sativa buzz. To clean if you ask me but not bad. I called him on it and the shit hit the fan as he was selling it on the street. In a pinch it may not be bad but I want to know what chemicals I'm smoking ?
