No worries. I dry em and then three full sweats before weigh in. After that they might drop 2-3% through the cure but never had more than that.Lookin good. Make sure you give em a real good dry before you post your numbers.

Irish doesn't go for weight and does things his own way so we are on different pages in that regard. Also, I'm pretty sure his medical card limits his weight quite dramatically so he probably has to play that carefully. I think he's an american grower and the US laws aren't anything to roll the dice on. I'm allowed two pounds dry and if I happen to produce over that the instructions are to destroy the excess immediately so I evan have official guidance in that regard. Canada has a different attitude about pot so I wouldn't be too worried about growing a little more than I'm allowed.
Thanks for the vote of confidence though

Thanks amigo. Yup looks like I'll be chopping this week....well actually after my last experiment gonna drown em under the lights for three days and then cut and hang and they do take a while to dry after they've been drowned but the smoke is even smoother.

I agree, and am doing one more test to convince myself. I just flushed my Wembley and put her into the dark for 3 days. I am then going to chop half the plant and then drown the remaining half so i can compare the smoke later before/after drowning.

so you drown after the dark period? I've been doing it before

I have been doing it before also. Drown for 24 - 48 hours under lights, then 48 - 72 more in dark.
The first time I tried a dark period I hadn't heard of MIR or Drowning. The last few plants got drown for 24 - 48 hours before total dark.
This time is a bit of a compromise/merging of methods so I can try some of my own tests.

I dont see why people give up days like that. 24 hour black outs and etc. Doesnt make sense why you would want to lose out on a day.
Just get her cold near the end and she will show lots of color. I notice kool bloom dry brings out the colors and ripens. I use that stuff at half strenght once a week for weeks 6 and 7. Really brings out the smell and looks. You have to flush really good tho.

That's because you have never tried it, obviously. I don't give up days, they are additional 'pre-harvest' days. Once I decide a plant is ready for harvest it get's drowned to kill it and begin the fermentation process. Then it gets cut and hung whole to further aid in fermentation while drying. Once dried it is trimmed and the sweats/burping begins. The drowned bud tastes better as it is going into the jars then 1 - 2 week cured bud does if it wasn't drowned or hung to dry whole.
This time I am adding a few extra days to test a few different pre-harvest techniques and convince myself drowning and hanging plants to dry before trimming is best.
My Wembley just got her final (3rd straight) flush of 2ga of RO + Sweet Raw. Then she got 3ga of plain RO and put into darkness for 3 days. Then I will cut half, and drown the other half for 3 - 5 more days of darkness. Hopefully I will be able to have a good comparison of drowned vs un-drowned buds.
The beauty of 1 plant every 10 - 14 days is I can try lots of different things.
