there is no way your plants dry out in 1 day.

How long do you let it cure??

 

[crazemarijuanna]

i take my plant out the ground then i cut the branches off then hang down in my basement its cold an everythin dark but it take about a day mybe 2 ta dry and if i wait 3 days it would be so crispy it would just crumble but the stem still stays kinda wet so idk

i have a question or two, do you have a fan blowing, if yes that will speed the drying process. are you still givin frets (how high a nitrogen in the ferts) nitogen makes bud tast like crap.

I'd nix the basement then.
here is a link to harvesting that you may find helpful....the first few days of cure it smells like that...the reason its harsh is all the chlorophyll hasn't been broken down yet.

Then if you have questions post back

no fan but the buds are thin i would say scraggly if u know wat im sayin so the buds they just get realy really dry and the stem stays a little wet but if i let them sit till the stem gets dry and snaps they would be so crispy the would just breack on contact ????

Can you tell us how they were grown? Environment, lighting ferts stuff like that?

 

[crazemarijuanna]

grown outside in back yard garden good sunlite but one thing i think might have happend was my brother said that he put some fertalizer in them like a week ago i was pissed cause i read that ur not supposed to do that when getting reeady to harvest but beside that i gave them some fertalizer earlyer when they were just starting to bud

its drying too fast. thats why it tastes like hay.

its drying too fast. thats why it tastes like hay.

i kno its drying to fast but what i am saying is how to stop that ......

 

[MrPuffAlot]

your buds must be some tiny itty bity buds, to be drying in 1 day, from
hanging.

smells like hay, but does it get you high?

 

[crazemarijuanna]

not to small of bud just scraggly lol and it gives more a body high but yup
