Most nutrients that you use comes with a chart and E.C/PPM range to stay inside of. Just tweak it to serve your purposes.
For example if you don't want to spend a lot of money on nutes you can dilute the solution. Some companies like CANNA and CURRENT CULTURE have Nutrient Calculators on their websites. CANNA has one for light feeding, medium feeding or heavy.

But you will never get better information than gathering the data yourself and making adjustments.

Nope, no microwaves, ever. Set your oven to 160 and quick dry that way, if you must. Thc evaporates over 220 degrees, so your microwave neutered the bud

How long are we talking for a quick dry in the oven? Am going to be in a pinch where I'm out of bud sometime next week while my harvest finishes drying/getting jarred. Am thinking I quick dry a couple buds to hold me over.

Lmao 40 mins isn't such a "sadly" situation to me when I'm waiting 10ish days for the bud to dry, and months of cure. Glad to hear that it worked though!

Thanks for the information friend. Also curious what part of the world you're from? My guess is that French is your first language?

if you got ten days go for a slower dry then oven. put out in the air and in 4-5 days with low RH should be crispy enough go jar for a few more days

I've got maybe 10 days of stash left, and I'm not pulling anything until this upcoming weekend at the very earliest (will be day 63F on Friday). So what you're saying is to just do a shorter dry (4-5 days) and smoke from there rather than throwing a branch in the oven? Hoping to harvest well over a lb so one branch or so isn't the end of the world -- but I don't like being without green after years of daily consumption lol

Makes sense to me. I was looking at it from the opposite angle -- 4-5 days of extra ripeness > a few days slower dry since it'll likely taste like arse either way (45 min oven dry vs quickly dried, both uncured) no?

No skin off my back I guess. Will hang em slow and peel some off when out of bud. A 24hr THC break is a feat for me these days, shit even 12hrs is. At this stage, I'm trying to avoid putting money into my connects pocket when my plants are almost there!!

You're putting a hole in your own pocket when you follow bad practices.

If you want more money, hit the books

I'm not sure what you're getting at really. My grow is personal & a hobby, not for sale. I have a big boy day job. Just want to avoid paying for an extra 1/2oz from my local guy even if it's at the expense of a branch of my grow
