Plants are now 46 days into flowering. What i want to know is, if i am on the right track. From what i read from the time of my last grow, I came up with a method fro harvesting/drying/curing. Wait till 75% of hairs turn amber colour (personal prefference of the smoke this way) Flush for 7-10 days of tap water (ph adjusted ?) with no nutes, too get rid of the chemical taste in the buds. Leave in darkness for 24hrs. Take plants out and trim all fan leaves and neaten up the buds (so to speak) and hang them on a coat-hanger. Make sure buds are not touching eachother. All the smaller buds, put them on a mesh net and place under the hanging buds. Have a blowing fan…

okies well i downloaded this cannabis growing movie and the guy grew a few pounds of k2 :thumbsup and he manicured the whole lot with an ard-vark dunno how well it treats the resin and all that but this guy breezed through the 2 pound or so of smoko in no time using this vacuum cleaner extrension :scratchin this device would be perfect for the personal and commercial grower alike as u dont have to sit around for days manicuring by hand or risk your stash and getting stolen by having other people manicure for you :thumbsup im not sure if u can get it in australia as the site is saying usa and canadian people can order but doesnt say anything about any other co…

im 1 week into flushing b4 harvest, how long can i keep running the system without nutes b4 the smoke starts to suffer, im guessing the harvest should be in the next 10 days, nature being what it is im only guessing, so far i've pruned most of the dead and dying rubish below the screen, also a lot of people say they get a few picks from a crop, I've always found my to mature from the bottom with the top buds being the last to mature. any thought would be helpfull

Hello, When I harvested my last crop I chopped each individual branch, manicured the buds and then hung them out to dry. Once they were dry I cured them in glass canning jars. I was happy with the results but the buds didn't seem to keep their lovely smell. Is there are better way of harvesting/drying/curing? Cheers dwyndorf

Hi PPL. I know there are a lot of other posts here about the storage of weed and I thought this deserved a new topic.... Has anyone tried those little toxic anti humidity bags that you get with new shoes and other stuff for storage? I know they are toxic but I have seen them come in vitamin C bottles before and all sorts of stuff, so I figure it is safe to store with weed. So has anyone tried this and is it any good of an idea? ALSO!!!... What about those storage bags you see on TV that suck all of the air out of the bag? Could you store this with one of those packs and bury it for a few years? I have been thinking about this for a while and would like to know …

It's nearly that time here...I've been reading some other threads about harvest, and i noticed that some people here say they leave their plants in darkness for two days before harvest. I usually pick at about 4 in the afternoon and dont turn the lights off beforehand...I was wondering what are the advantages or reasonings for the darkness before picking? Is having the lights out for a couple of days first what most people do or is it just a few who choose this? also i dont usually flush my plants before the pick but after reading the forums alot I am going to this time...hopefully i will be tasting the difference!
