I gotta say it again. Beautiful.:thumbsup:

IMO that stuff deserves first-class treatment. So:

  • I'm voting against darkness. You're still trying to finish them! Stay on schedule. :thumbsup:


  • Don't handle your buds any more than necessary. A few weeks ago I watched some buds under magnification as I handled them. I was amazed at how easily I could just wipe the trichs right off the plant.


  • Get something around 30X to look at those trichs. Cough up some cash for something optically worthy of those buds. (Red hairs don't necessarily mean anything. I used to scrog real close under T5's and they could brown pistils in 48 hours.) A jeweler's loupe, a Radio Shack lighted microscope, something... Google eyeclops bionicam for a magnifying camera for $25-40 US. You can get 'em from different shops on Amazon. I'll put up some pics I took with one for ya.


into paper shredded and into a box, then after 2-3 days of that
Don't understand the paper / shredded thing. Dry only until the small branches start to snap, not bend. Then right into mason jars. Open 2X daily to "burp" out moisture. Takes 2-4 more weeks, the longer the better. Even months.
