Hanging

  1. Okay, so a couple of days ago. i cut and hung my plants up. And when the plant was still in pot. my buds were really thick and dense.

    now a few days have gone by and the buds seem to have gotten really soft like. like almost all the dense,fuck yeah these are fat buds came out....


    why did this happen???
     
  2. there drying right? if so when the plants die after cutting water and nutes arent circulated around anymore thru the cell walls and "vascular" system resulting in the loss of structure, buds loose tremendous amounts of size while drying, basically everything shrinks, the density will return once fully dried, mine were similar and now are back to rock solid
     
  3. Thanks. a bunch.
     
  4. yeah they are in the drying stage right now. heres a before and after kinda thing...

  5. What lights were you using? Curious to see dry weight, nice work
     
  6. i was only using a 400w HPS.


    im thinking next time, go with alittle more juice. so like a 600HPS.
     
  7. Also, when is the really fresh GREEN/leafy smell gonna go away? or, ease up.
     
  8. usually 1 week into cure will ease up on leafy smell, 2 wks should give you a smooth product.
