Preserving flavor when drying buds
Not saying one way is better than the other, but my last grow of AK47af lowriders tasted freakin'great!
What I did was I flushed a week in advance of killing, then trimmed before drying in a cardboard box.
( I have a pc fan mounted on the box to help the drying and to help eliminate bud rot)
After about 4 days I cut off the large stems and dryed the buds for an additional 6 days or so.
I made sure that the small stems snapped when bent.
Next I cured in mason jars and burped the jars two or three times a day for about 2 1/2 to 3 weeks.
I kept the jars in complete darkness.
Not once did I experience a "hay" taste or any harshness. I am very conservative so I use a small pipe
and every hit had the most incredible sweet taste. Kinda reminded me of the old Blonde Lebanese Hash days.
Maybe it was the strain I used, I dont know, but I savored every tasty hit.
I grew in a large wooden box lined with polyshield underlayment, a fan, cfls, and MG, so it deffinetly
wasnt my growing expertise that produced such a great taste.
Next grow I'm doing more AK47af lowriders and using HPS, and better soil.
..I cant wait to taste THAT batch! :thumbsup:
