Purple Kush Auto Harvest Day

I have two Purple Kush Auto's ready but the buds are light and airy. I harvested 1 of them yesterday, 83 days old after the seed pop. The plants grew indoors to about 28 inches tall under 1000W MH/HPS lighting. The grow medium was 1/3 coco, 1/3 perlite and 1/3 Ocean Farms Potting soil using Emerald Harvest nutrients in smart pots.The white pistals turned 95% brown and curled inward and I think the trichomes looked like there were quite a few with dark amber heads. This is my first harvest. I'm a bit disappointed that the buds turned out sort of light and airy and not dense and hard like I am used to seeing. Did I do something wrong in the grow that made them light and airy? Will they shrink up and become hard and dense after dry and cure? Or is this just normal for the Purple Kush Auto's? The harvest for one plant was about 2.5 ounces right after they were harvested (...but I understand they will be about 23% of that weight after dry and cure).
