A plant being healthy green does not mean you should delay harvest..that's absurd. When it's done, it's done, regardless of how well you time your "flush".
I grew out some Blue Himalaya auto this summer and shared it with some Spaniards after announcing that is was just my homegrown. Well, we all know homer sucks, right? We smoked and and about 45 minutes later the dude came over and basically said wow, killer homer. Ya think? And that was an auto that I did a half-assed job on like most of my grows.... Homer is the best when produced by experienced growers, but it can be respectable through luck in novice hands, I am living proof.

I started to realize recently that very few smokers care about the quality of their bud as much as I do. With this in mind, I try my best to "educate" people by showing them what good bud is. I've never had a person see quality bud and say something negative about it, but if they did I would say "cool." That's it. Those two words would cover every fuck I have to give about their opinion when it comes to bud.
I've noticed that everyone wants to believe that the bud they have is "the best." I've even found myself getting prideful and not giving props to someone's bud when they were bragging so much that it pissed me off.
Something I say to people who comment negatively about the eye-appeal of buds: "When you stick your weed in your pipe, you do smoke it or look at it?" =) haha

dry trimming will cause ur buds to smell an taste better.. no matter what u do .. if u try to trim wet u will have that hay smell ... need to slow dry then trim guys.. it works.
Hmmm, wonder why just 1 joint of mine will stink out a whole room just sitting there in the ashtray, unlit then???...
(BTW, I trim fresh, always have, always will. Pix R worth 1000 words)
O ya...
Commercial = expensive, and usually not top notch.
Homegrown = Cheap and Effective.
Peace

You know, I've been running into the same exact thing....I even did an experiment. Hooked one friend up with nice, fat, uncompressed nugs one week, guy comes back a week later and I hook him up with the same exact stuff, but only compressed..basically took some nice nuggets and sat on them than dried them out.
He came back the next week and asking for the stuff that had been compressed..he thought it was "commerical/imported" and was of much better quality than the uncompressed stuff (again both bags were the same..only difference was one was not compressed)

You'd think they would smell the similarity.

When I smoke I only smoke my own. Because I know what desired effect I will get. That it was properly flushed and cured. And it is smooth and taste is good. I smoked with a friends last month that he said was good stuff and it tasted like dirt and chemicals. Also mixing op mj just screws up my high or stone. Some people will buy and smoke shit. Sorry I will not anymore.

Took some more of my herb and compressed it, giving it more of a "commercial look"....Same people that before had been seeing nice, FAT tight nugs are now seeing the same stuff only compressed....
To them it's better....I guess because it looks like it traveled a distancec to get here.
