Good Day,
I realize the regurgitation of things here, however, I just want to be sure about harvesting. I have read nearly every post and this is what im going to do.
When approximately 60-70% of the hairs on my girl go brown I will proceed to snip all the branches off leaving the main stock bare. These branches will then hang upside down in a cool dark place untill the stems are nearly snapping off when bent. This drying process will take 4-6 days. Then, to cure, I will trim off the branches still holding buds and place them into mason jars, being sure to open the jars for a few minutes each day and constantly watching and smelling for mold. This curing process will take about 2-3 weeks.
I realize that there is no replacement for actual trial and error, but if what I have planned sounds right than I am content with posessing the right tools to start the process of trial and error.

I thank you in advance for your time and feel free to crack jokes and make fun, cause after all, thats what this is all about.
I will post a photo of her when my digital comes back from the notorious friend who i lend everything to.

Cheers.

Here are some photos of my girl I took this morning and I noticed that only the top portion of each branch carries dense bud. I read a post somewhere that says, when ready, trip the top of the branch and leave the bottom. hmmmmm?

Heres a photo of the Top of one branch.

thats exactly what i would do but i would just cut the whole plant, but if you wanted all the buds to "ripen" i would only cut off the ones that are done (as you said 60- 70 % red) then wait til the smaller lower buds are done. sounds like a plan to me. pix look good too
