  1. sprkn1..
       While I used a hygrometer extensively on my early runs I'm now doing this nearly all by feel except the last few days.. I can just give the buds a gentle squeeze and tell if it needs more time out or some time in.. Sounds like your doing just fine..
      I'll be off to the San Berdo mountains for a couple of days and leaving my grow in Mr. S's very capable hands..
     
      Gave the plants a nice morning spraying with BT.. Even with my weekly spraying I found 2 near inch long caterpillars roaming the tops of Sticky Monkey.. Didn't find any damage so I can only surmise they parachuted in from elsewhere.. I've found them floating in the air tethered to a taller plant by a hair thin strand of silk dozens of feet from the attachment point..

  2. the more I tried to screw around with my cure the worse it got. I hang it in my garage in a layered drier till the stems snap. Then I put it in a brown paper bag, and open that up once a day. That takes a few more days, then I pop it into the jars with the bodiva packs.

  3. Would my buds in the jar always feel crispy, or when they cure they should feel better?

  4. crispy buds burn too fast and taste like crap. Bovida makes humidity control packs specifically for medical cannabis. They keep the humidity at a perfect 62%. Keeping one of them in my jars has made a huge difference. I even have one in my hash jar that is keeping my hash PERFECT, OMG! I'm so freakin stoned right now from smoking some  :bongin:  :bongin:  :bongin:
     
    It should be spongy, but not moist. Take apart a few cigarettes and get a feel for the moisture content in the tobacco. That's about 70% IIRC, so you want your weed a little bit drier then that. It should pull apart and not crumble. The edge of dankness  :smoking:

  13. Sampled a little bit off the SLH I chopped 4 days ago. I outside was dry enough to stay lit, with the inside still moist enough where the bud doesn't break up as easily but is starting to get sticky. Shits still doing the job. I've been doing dabs the whole week, today's first day back just on bud. Damn, it kicks more than I thought, a bowl and some scissor hash on top got me feeling good. Honestly can't wait til this is done with the cure and at it's best. It's surprising considering how some of it was seeded, still potent like sensi.

    Wave your shits looking tight like always. How's that smoke? Is that your early chopped lady or no?
