Disapearing Buds :(

Ok I dried my bud for 5 days and they did the normal thing, get smaller as they dried. So I have been curing now for about 3 weeks and they have gotten way smaller than they were. The first time I thought i had a thief. Now this time I am unsure. They have been in mason jars the entire time. The other day When I checked they looked normal but last night I damn nead cried.

Is this normal . . .now this is the second time this has happened as this has only been my second grow.

Numbers float around here... as it is a plant full of water, you can expect 70-75% of the weight to "dry off" when you cure your buds.

I always think I have a thief especially when starting to get low on bud. "Alright who's been stealing my shit?" oh yea thats right it's me

@Redbeard - damn so I loose more in the cure also....damn So I need to be growing double what I have

@brasmith - i feel you

every since there has been a half pound of dank under my bead i have been a walking chimny(sp)

Yeah I thought I had a thief then I remebered all the big blunts I've burned plus the shrinkage. Its all good tho I luvs the blunts even tho theyr taken their toll on me in these later years. Then again u cood have a thief. Its sad but most of the time its one of ur closest friends jackin ur shit.

Another good way too al of a sudden wonder where all ur pot has gone is smoke cross joints. I blazed a shit ton of weed just runnin around smokin cross joints/ blunts my first harvest. Then it was like damn where did all my green go? Duh? U burnt it retard? Good times alwayz tho.
dazed...nevr confused
