More trichome pics

[Rickjamespart2]

I took more trichome pics I dont know if its better shots than my previous post but Im seriously considering chopping today??? Should I would you????( going for heady high)

 

[Rickjamespart2]

forgot the pics

 

[Pepperhead]

Lots of clear triches will be heady and speedy but depends on the strain

 

[Graytail]

Yup, go for it!

A couple days doesn't matter much, but I see ambers and most of the others look cloudy. She's ready.

Looks amazing

I'm not very good at looking things over in purple lights but 2 of the pictures I can really tell 20% amber. If you're looking for a head high I would chop.

 

[Stormblessed]

I definitely see some amber in there, I’d chop lol

 

[Van Stank]

You are in the window.....depends on the strain for me. I let my indicas go til more amber, sativas I like to take a bit on the cloudy and clear side.

 

[Canadadoes]

Looks good to me, I’d give her the chop at anytime now.

 

[Rickjamespart2]

I'm drying in a 4x4 with a temp of 75 Fahrenheit on hangers my dehumidifier says 65 RH and my ac infinity says 75 RH. I would hope my dehumidifier is more accurate. Any tips on perfect dry and cure

 

[Stormblessed]

Try to get the RH down if it’s really 75, that seems high, even 65 is a little high for the first few days I believe, i think u want like 50-55 the first few days then like 60 the rest of the time, but I’m no expert

Can you move the dehumidifier I to your tent or 4x4 space? Why such a difference assuming the dehumidifier is in the room that your tent is taking air in from. Do you have an open window or something? Make sure your ac sensor isn't touching something or anything like that.

its already in the tent and it has dropped to 68 rh

 

[Rickjamespart2]

Ive been drying for a few days now and the strong aroma of the buds seem to have almost completely become unnoticable is this normal in the drying stage?

 

[BigD13]

What is the rH of the buds? If they’re between 65-70 % rH, it’s probably time to put them in jars to start burping and curing.

I dried my plants whole last grow, as the previous time I'd cut the colas off and found I'd over dried them, I then made a mess of trying to rehydrate them, but this last grow I dried the 3 plants whole and after 3 - 4 weeks and dry trimming them I had 23oz and they were perfect for jarring.

I like what I have read of the long slow fridge drying but I have no experience with that. However, I will continue to dry the whole plants in future grows. The only difference I'd make is that on the last grow I chopped the plant at the base of the stem, on future grows I'll use a bread knife to cut it out with some roots as well.
Your trichome pics look good. All the best

Curious...why will you use a bread knife and cut out at the roots?

The problem was they were quite big plants, somewhere around 4 foot across, and growing in containers on the balcony. When it came to pull them up I couldn't get them out or at least I felt if I did I would send dirt flying everywhere. That particular day I also didn't have much time to get it done so I ended up chopping at the base, next time I'll use a bread knife to quickly cut thru the root base.

 

[Modest Grower]

Why dry with the roots though? I just hackem at the base and turned upside down. Trim some fan leaves and come back for a dry trim. What's the benefit of having roots attached during drying?
