Harvest time on Saturday. Will be day 68 for my white widow. Pics to come pre and post chop! I plan on hanging for 4 to 5 days then brown bagging for another 4 to 5 days, then its jar time for about a month or two! Thinking only about half of it will make it the fill month or two in jars lol.. Any extra harvesting suggestions??

Yes, trim after hang-drying. Seems to taste better. Even before cured.

I think I'm gonna trim everything before the hang... and this is my first harvest of something not bagseed! It was a clone from a seed from Michigan. Super proud of this one, though I'll have to say, sativa's are not good for the impatient.

Use rubbing alcohol to dip your scissors in to keep them from gumming up.

Sorry for the wait. Pictures of before trim aren't to focused as my phone was dying and the flash wouldn't work. But the ones of post trim were taken pretty much 24 hrs after hanging. RH of around 55 and temp is round 65 or so.

yo fellowslongworth, your white widow looks nice dude. i just chopped mine this morning. i'm trying a new thing on this harvest, to dry before trimming. i found in the past that trimming first and then drying made the buds dry too fast and lose a lot of flavor. anyway, are your buds still hanging or in paper bags? if still hanging, i might ease off on the ventilation to avoid over drying. peace

They still hanging ATM, probably another day or so before they hit the bags.. How did long did you flower? It seemed like eons for me

only 8.5 weeks, because of a trip i had to cut it short. i'm sure i could've let them go another 2 weeks. they're drying now, so no turning back
