Hey 'Hottie', whats up man?
let me know when you start your new journal, yours and OB's were the first two that I really followed and enjoyed every bit (although I am jealous at the size your plants were).
I have just updated yesterday with some new pics. It turns out my plants were more like 12 weeks for flowering so I still have a week left.

Nice job Hottie, I won't be making half of that weight but I think you vegged a couple of weeks longer than I did, hopefully, Jay and Dog will be more like your yield.
HHM, What do you mean by curing?.... Drying?
I thought curing meant keeping in air tight jars after a period of drying.
I thought I was meant to hang and dry them for about 6/7 days then cure them in jars for up to 30 days.
What sort of time span should I expect for drying? I thought it was between 4 to 7 days depending on the environment and other variables, is that wrong?

Edit: I just read this post, questions, questions, questions sorry for being so demanding, Now TELL me!!

I hung mine till the stems would "snap" not "bend" one of the plants took about a week longer to dry than the other two.. the first two hung for like 7-9 days.. after they are done hanging I snip all the bud off the stalk and jar them up, opening them up once a day for 20 min to let the chlorafill out. each plant will stay in the jars getting "burped" once a day for about a month.. so in other words you understand it correctly.

Ive also been told recently that you can hang them with a humidifier in the room for one week. but Im not big on short cutts and that is what that sounds like to me.

what do you think of the one week dry with humidifier in the room and no jarring.. the person this comes from is a outdoor grower in nocal, his bud is fn incredible but Im not so sure about his advise to me on the drying...

I know a guellia guy who does the same thing,IDK, never had the nerve to try, once you got perpet it kinda just flows though you routine.
His smoke is a little hash but he sells for 35/70
