That's become one of my biggest pet peeves lately: getting some nice-looking bud home and realizing it's too wet to smoke!! Shit, I've got my own stuff curing up in jars. I bought some herb at the dispensary to smoke TODAY while I wait for my own, NOT to have to continue their cure for them for another 2 weeks!!

You can't tell moisture levels by looking either so its really frustrating.

Yeah--I have been hearing that about a lot of dispensories too. I think they're anxious to get the product on the shelf--so they harvest early--don't dry enough--and most times don't spare the time to let it cure.
rightwinger Reviewed by rightwinger on . Trichomes and the harvest Hi all, a general question with I am sure many complex answers. After trying to learn everything I can before attempting to grow my medicine, I have come to a crossroads and am sure the answer is here. OK, most sites giving advice say that the trichomes should be an amber color or at least say 50% of them should be amber to get the full effect, however I have started checking the medicine I get from a few dispensaries with a 50-100x pocket scope and I'll be dammned if I can find very many amber Rating: 5
