early sampling...

[trupothead420]

ive read that u should cut off some here and there as u near the end of flowering to sample it to c exactly which u like better and to get a better idea of when to harvest..right? so when u do that what exactly o u cut...do u cut a whole branch, or jus a spot where there is a nice lil bud to smoke....and by doin so will it stunt the flowering process...thnx...

when thinking that you want a tester, try to aim the cut just under the bud and snip it off as closely to the branch as possible this is the best way to cut it
yeah this can stunt plant growth and sometimes resulting in a week sometimes longer to repair its self forcing growth to stop
hope this helps
cheers all

thnx again brah

if i clip a lil to test out....do i have to hung it upside down to dry it and then put it in a mason jar for like 1-2 wks to cure like u do wit the whole crop, or since its jus a lil piece, maybe jus a few days in a jar, or can i jus blaze it up.? or is there some other quick way to do it when its jus a lil piece...thnx....

best to leave them alone, tempting as it is. Stress while flowering should only be done by no watering at the end. but if you do try, snip a very low small nug, and you can put it in the oven on low heat for 10 minutes or hair dry it under a net or something to get it dry enough to smoke. It wont taste good but itll give you an idea of what your working with.

thnx brah

leave them babies alone! its tempting but its better to wait a week with none then to wait 2 and a half weeks for it to finish because of shock.

just my 2 cents

[bongerstonerd00d]

And they recommend 7 or so weeks in the Mason jars. Its longer than a week to cure it correctly. If ya got your clones ready you can almost be ready to harvest another crop after this one has fully cured.

if you have a wireless router slap it on top of that for the day then smoke on the night it shrivels up a bit but thats how i do it if i take a sample
