I have seen trollish types give horrible advice to newbies, just to see if they were dumb enough to act upon it.

@Shovelhandle:
Not a problem as long as the water is not < say, 40 F.
The trichs are quite flexible at normal temperatures.

I know this because I took macro images before, and after the wash.

Weezard Reviewed by Weezard on . Bud Washing? I was discussing bud washing in my grow log and I figured I'd start a new thread here. So does anyone wash there buds before harvest? Some people are doing it and giving the process rave reviews. I cleaned out my attic and probably got my plants a bit dusty. That's the reason I figured I'd give it a try. Guys who foliar feed there plants into flower came up with this idea. A lot of people are probably thinking dunk my buds in water after harvest? I've had bud rot before without Rating: 5
