Nice haul Mr. C. It’s surprising how often a Skunk pheno appears, Ive had several different strains that occasionally threw a plant you’d swear was Roadkill Skunk. Weird.

Indica leaner 16.02 gs.A gram per ounce of media/medium.
Has a fruit smell to it.Reminds me of Nirvana's Aurora Indica's nose.Found a few seeds,pollinated by the Sativa leaner.
Didn't weigh the sativa leaner.Full of seeds. Nose on her just smells like weed.Nothings jumps out.Will most likely smoke amjoint of it and squish the rest.

Took the plant down last night. Rummaged threw her today to see how many good looking seeds would drop out. Found 8 great looking seeds so far and my guess is she still has another 6 or 8 to release as she dries further. The bud is 27.5 grams with half of the seeds removed. Dry weight will be around 14 - 16 grams if I had to guess but should be dry in another day. Really wanted to get a flavor profile for this plant but she used everything pushing out these beans.

I’m really hoping my dry/cure can save some of the sweet skunky aroma of my plant. Hasn’t been happening lately though as I’m experimenting with different methods.

Okay, so after two weeks of curing and burping, my plant is still 26g. The smell has changed a little, but is still really fruity.

Are you using Bovida packs?

I’ve tried with them and without. Main issue is drying too fast. Going with straight paper bag currently and next will be hanging the plant in a bag. If I can get the drying locked in, curing wouldn’t be as difficult.

What's the relative humidity in your drying space? What do you remove from the plant before you hang it? What fans do you use if any?

@J.James the quality of those flowers really changed. What did it smell like after digging in for those seeds. Those leaves don't appear to have many trichomes on them, which is very similar to my plant.
My harvest methodology on this girl: first remove all leaves with no trichomes, which was most of them. She got the chop on May 1st and hung dry for 12 days and then I broke everything down May 13th morning. Drying environment temperature range was 65-67F and RH 45-55 with a 60W 18" oscillating fan blowing on low 24" below hanging plant in complete darkness. Very minimal dry trimming required then straight into 1 gallon ball jar. I burp about every 12 hours and will do so as needed usually 2x / day week 1 1x day week 2. I may split the jar in 2 in a week and try the Bovida in one.
The skunk smell of my harvest is also dissipating.

The buds were very airy and fell apart easy, had a sweet earthy smell with a hint of citrus. Most of the sugar leaves were dried up the day I cut it down and smaller buds also crumbled into nothing. I found a single seed just now when I removed the large stems and got a weight of 11.4 grams after removing the small white seeds also. Im sure the trichomes It did have fell off days ago when the plant started to die off. But I got 9 new seeds for the next comp!

RH is varying. Not quite sure what it is upstairs. Downstairs it’s between 40-50%. No fans because they’re drying out too fast. Have done wet trim, no trim with full plant hanging, brown paper bag, jar curing with burping etc. and all haven’t created the desired end product I’m looking for. Still searching for that quality...

What Light and Medium do you normally use? Do you wash your buds after harvest before you hang them? Have you tried adding a humidifier to your space?

Used to grow with HPS and outdoors, now am indoors with LED growing in soil. I do not wash my buds. Next options are that humidifier in room with them hanging in closet or I’ll find a large or wardrobe box to hang them in.

Good idea, Humidifier increased my dry time by 2 - 3 days and really made a huge difference. But if you are worried about the threat of powdery mildew, Rense your buds after harvest in 5 gallons RO water with 1 cup H2O2 (3%). I just Dip into H2O2 and then into Clean RO and Hand dry. I don't do baking soda and lemon juice, Feel like that's freebasing some weed lol
