When the trichomes turn amber the THC is degrading in quality. So harvesting at 65% is like over half of your THC has past its prime. I applaud your patience but I think you would do better if you harvest when they are at peak (cloudy) and only a few have turned amber. They will continue to mature through out the drying process.

Right on man, it shall be.
Marlboroman Reviewed by Marlboroman on . BUD SMELL AFTER HARVESTING questionable i harvested about 10 days ago and had my buds hanging and drying for about 4 days, then put them in paper bags in a cool dark place, then placed them in mason jars..... the buds don't have that super sweet smell they had before harvest and right now smells like a teenie weenie bud smell but mostly a different weird kind of green-ish smell. is this a normal thing for the curing process? please any input would put my questioning mind to rest.
