so i havent' been keepin up with my promise to keep you all psoted on my harvest-time goings on...my bad. anyway, i still havent' harvested the widow. not really anyway. i decided to cut off the main cola nad dry it out, jsut to see what it's like. And it's...weeelll...AWESOME! wow. It's still not dried and cured to the extent it should be, but i used a technique to quick dry it in the microwave one night when me and my friends couldn't get any other bud and it is potent. I mean...wooo! Anyway, i've had it curing for a few days now in a mason jar, and i decided to toss in a little packet of clay desiccant as well, and i actually think it's helping. I smoked a little bit of it this am when i got home from work and it actually seemed stronger, i could only hit the Janitor (my favoritest bong) once before i said "ooook, i'm done." My theory is that the desiccant absorbs water, so more of the water leaves the bud sooner than were it allowed to go on naturally, so that no resin evaporites out along with the water. But that coudl jsut be my high hopes for my first harvest. Either way, i'm gonna be happy with the crop. And the taste was surpriseing as well, i was expecting it to be VERY harsh havign been quck dried in a paper bag in the microwave, but it was actually pretty tasty. Still haven't harvested the rest of the plant, i'm waiting for the other buds to develop a little more. Slowly choppin my way down the plant, takin the most mature buds and workin my way down. And if it's stressed out and goes hermie by the time i reach the bottom; good! then i'll have more seeds! Skunk's still...skunk. Buds have gotten much fatter, but nothin to write home...or on a forum, about. Probly got another month at least before i can think abotu harvesting her. Not sure what's makin my flower times run so long, but whatev, at least now i know i'm gonna have some NICE buddingtons when i'm done.
