Newly harvested weed has low potency

[Boohiss]

Hi all,

 

I harvested my Kiwi seeds Hindu Kush at 10 weeks, dried it for 7 days and it's now been curing for 1 week and it is the lamest weed I've ever smoked.

 

It's been grown in coco and given nutes as expected. It had mainly cloudy trics with some clear and amber. I realise that a long cure will increase its potency but is it normal for weed to have low potency when first harvested?

 

Thanks

its super easy to find a shit plant, easy to find an average one, not too difficult to find a good one and a truly spectacular one takes either numbers or luck and that in thc dominate lines.  get a line like hindu kush that has a high potential for cbd phenos and you can get one of those truly spectacular one in a million phenos that is cbd dominate and might as well be grass from a drug users perspective.  all you can do if you don't like a plant is ditch her and find a new girl to keep around.

Most often the flavours and complexity of the high develop as the buds 'cure'. Curing takes time, at 14 days the buds have only dried, not cured, wait a few weeks and the high will be very different

Curing dosent increase potency IMO, curing brings out the diffrent elements of the plant, ie:  taste and smell...

May have left it go too long, did you pull them at 10 weeks or flush at 10 and pull at 11?

 

Prolly best to pull before amber trics appear, I've let some plants go too long and they still didn't have much amber.
