Those ladies look amazing! I literally just did the whole 72 hrs of darkness, to be honest not much of a visble difference. I do however add molasses to my last feedings, or even durring the flush. Molasses likely gets things going in the soil, may even sweeten your sticky buds a little. But molasses has been used as a cure for meats, fish etc for centuries, I honestly believe it assists in the curing process of cannabis as well. Just my .02 ![]()
@Myfriendis410 I’ve seen you and several others talk about washing your buds. What is the purpose of this?
Inquiring minds want to know
Washing the entire plant in peroxide and water removes a bunch of environmental crap that has landed (and stuck!) to the plant over it’s life. When I grow in media I lug them out daily (assuming sunlight and I’m home) so mine do get exposed to the out of doors directly. My indoor space is in the garage and I don’t filter the intake air there either.
But a picture is worth a thousand words: this is one plant
The other benefit to washing is I’ve found my flower stays ‘fresh’ longer in the jar. I’m smoking some Sour Diesel that I put down in September of 2018 that’s still green and fresh.
It’s easy to do; inexpensive (Wally World $.88/quart) and very effective. Do a rinse after your soak.
@Myfriendis410 there is ONE thing I found out, you should have your jars in a dark place when curing. Last harvest, I had so many damn jars, I ran out of places. I had a case of quarts sitting on top of my dehumidifier, with a single half gallon jar on top of that. The case was somewhat shielded from the light because they were in a box. The half gallon, however, was exposed to my grow light. Now I have a jar of white weed.
Yeah, and for long term storage mine go into an upright freezer that’s not frost free. It will keep in there for years. Eventually THC will break down into CBN but that would take 3 years or more.
I smoked some of the white weed the other day. Didn’t seem to hurt anything.
Yeah; it just bleached the chlorophyll out of the plant material. Probably degraded some THC too.
