Hows everyone doing here?? Last time I was on here I had a thread about over nuting my 3 plants. I started putting in just water free of nutes for a week or so then slowly started adding again. A few days after I started adding nutes I went on vacation for a week and had a buddy bbsit my ladies. He did his job fine but during that week the bud literally exploded and probably doubled in size and by the time I got home they were really weighing them down. I mean limbs were bending in half and the whole plants were leaning even tho I had rigged up with hangers and such. I basically let them get way too big for my space which was just a closet. They ended up being about 5.5 feet tall which was waaaaaaaaay bigger than I had ever planned. I realize I made some mistakes along the way but this was my first go ever soooo... Needless to say I chopped them when I got home from vacation and spend a number of hours the next day trimming and hanging and such. They have been hanging for almost 2 whole days now and I didnt know that they would dry out this fast. I thought they were supposed to dry for 7-10 days and then cure for a few. By the looks of it they are dry as hell and like crumble when :joint:(pinching them to smoke). The smoke is decent and I definitely get a lil blazed. I hear this gets better after they are cured tho. Basically my question is: Are they supposed to be this dry already and should I leave in full 7 days or what? Thanks for all your help everybody I learned everything I know from right here :)

P.S. heres a pic that shows most of what I have hanging. Skunk #11 Dutch Passion

The purpose of hanging buds to dry is to get MOST of the moisture out of them. I don't think that there is a fixed number of days that you have to dry them. Sounds like you're ready to cure them in jars if they're starting to get a little crumbly to the touch. Sweet looking harvest, well done!
 
same thing happened to me. but after you put them in jars they will get moist again and then you burp. Good luck!
 
nice harvest, lte them dry out for 4-7 days then into jars, i leave the jar shut for 1 day then open for 1 day for the first week or so, then i shut them and dont open again. late
