We all just need to care a little bit, and we can do this...
If every person on earth planted a single tree once a year for six years, we could reverse climate change...
Trees Suck !!!
Cut Them All Down !!@

Congrats on the harvest buds
If everyone would do like China did to fight the desertification of their land, the world would be all green by now

Iv been keeping an eye on my drying buds, 3rd day at 65% rh and they look good, no signs of anything bad
my skunk i decided to top every top and now i have 26 tops.. also i trimed some lower branches and leafs, leaving just the tops and one node with branches right under them, im aiming to just have a screen full of tops with direct light from above. Every branch was treated the same way and is +/- equal in size
before
After
I like how she looks, thinking on oppening a new thread for her
Peace :Tiphat:

I dryed some branches with the leafs in some specific places before this ones, i didnt like how brittle the leafs were, that mixed with the stickiness of the buds, i didnt like and since i can regulate the rh i trimmed the most that there was to trim

I saw a documentary about that.
There is some plateau in China that was desertified at the time of Christ or so.
They brought it back.
No goats eating everything, and plant all kinds of green stuff.

Yeah but the thing is, you cant have all the planet green, deserts are important for the ecosystems, weather etc, i dunno hoe dangerous can be to play with that..

7th day that my buds have been drying under 65% rh..i think i kinda fucked them up with direct and too much ventilation..
they feel dry, not brittle, touch them and i dont feel them breaking or anything but they look dry on the outside and dont have much smell besides clorophyl unless i touch them but even then they dont have a lot of smell, also they seemed kinda goldish, very light brownish color, but only the buds that are at the middle level of the cab, the buds that are closer to the roof of the cab smell nicer and dont feel so dry..
i solved the direct flow but maybe its too late, i hope the cure does them any good..iv smoked a whole branch during yesterday and today, it gets me a strange high, kinda of a buzz and lazy. The high advertised to this strain is considered high not for initial smokers, and more on the head than in the body, again, i hope the cure does any good to them..i raised the rh to 70 in this last week lets see.
My skunk is still recovering from all the toping but she is growing, also she is on a 20/4 schedule, to try in a way to make her grow faster
One of my 2 clone pot up attempts is establishing itself after 2 days and looks its starting to show new growth, i need 2 more days to be sure
Peace

To you guys more experienced than i
the bottom pic is 2 days after harvest, 4 days ago..the bottom one is from yesterday, its not the same bud but you guys get the pic.
Those brownish goldish trichs in the top pic are like that because they oxidized because of direct air circulation?i ask cause i lost all of her strong smell and she kinda of smell a bit like hay, but if i open the buds i smell her again, where is more moist.
what you guys think?they oxidized?did i really fucked up a bit of the harvest even with the rh at 65% everyday everytime?

Bud after harvest will lose a lot of smell when it's drying. A slow, low-temperature dry helps preserve as much as possible. When a plant starts to smell like hay, it means that the terpenes most accessible to the atmosphere have already vaporized. Since you have whole dense bud, a lot of those aromatics and oils are still inside the bud, and they will stay there so long as you have a humidity in the sweet-spot and low temperatures.
Your buds are gonna be fine. If you have any direct fans blowing on them, I would turn them away or even turn them off completely. Slow, patient drying that allows for moisture to evaporate off the plant, rather than be blown off, is ideal.

So i jarred all of the buds, they fill almost half of a 1.5l jar, 31.70g, they feel dry but i dunno if they are going to lose a bit more or should lost a bit less, i think a bit less dry, i hope i can recover some of that good smell with the cure, lesson learned. The readings are right after i close the lid
My 2nd pot ut attempt of my clone was a success, this is 1 week, didnt wilt, no def, nothing, 5* i wish all of them would be like this
My skunk seems to like her new pot after one week, she is putting new growth, the roots are reaching the side holes (soil already has myco added, i watered with bactohemp too) and she decided to tell me what i already know, she is a female

Looks good! If your RH in the jar goes up over time that means the buds are still sweating, so you'll wanna keep burping it. Ideal humidity is right between I would say 55% and 65% give-or-take, so long as it's stable.
After the buds are done being burped in a week or two, then close the jar for a week and come back to it, those smells should start to come forward again.
