Greetings,

Well, yesterday was the long awaited harvest, and not a day too soon! 2 of my biggest buds were starting to rot! Not visible unless looking inside the bud. The rest seems OK, but to try and minimise any cross contamination, I have separated the stash into 3, 2 in shoe boxes, one hung on lines in a large cardboard box to allow free air flow.

I am now constantly monitoring to ensure the rot hasn't spread.

This was one sticky mother! 4.5 hours harvest left me with 3 joints worth of finger hash, which wiped me and my harvesting assistant out for over 4 hours (and both he and I are long term smokers with a very high tolerance).

Thanks to the person who advised to skin a few up before starting - during the process, the sticky fingers would have made that impossible - 1 joint I smoked without closing my fingers around it - just stuck to my index finger!

We close trimmed the buds and kept the close trim separate from the larger leaves, and now I plan to hash the close trim, cos it's too full of trichs to waste.

Question: should I dry the trim before starting the dreaded hash making process, or just freeze the trim as is and start immediately?

TIA,

Noobus
Thought for the day: I read an article that said the typical symptoms of stress are eating too much, impulse buying, and driving too fast. Are they kidding? That is my idea of a perfect day.
