I did not do a budwash first. This was my first grow/harvest/dry/cure so my yield was a little less than an once from my one plant. I'm a home grower for personal recreational use. I've been trolling this thread from nearly the beginning and wanted to get the most out of my harvest but being new to growing I'm hesitant to wash. I plan on setting aside half my next harvest to wash to compare.
As for my bud size, I had to harvest early due to a family vacation, so I got mostly popcorn with 2 or 3 lighter sized colas.
Good job. Nothing as sweet as smoking your first harvest. I started out recreational too. Lol! Caught a whiff of the healing potential of cannabis and I was off and running.
I figured that drying in a week meant no wash. What is your greatest fear about the budwash? Nothing can be harmed, and we all agree it lends a special mellow quality to the finished product. I understand how intimidating it can be, but I started washing with my first harvest. You get attached to the idea of clean produce, the same way we wash grapes before we pop them into our mouths. An indoor grow doesn't get the dirt an outdoor one would, but you'd be surprised what washes out of a "clean" grow.
