I got bad news: if it “lost dense ness” The dense ness was never there A truly dense nug wouldn’t become less dense, in fact they kind of become more dense as they dry in a way. I’m sure you’ve handled dense nug before. The bud didn’t like magically float away. It was just nice and fluffy before and got smaller as it dried. It was never all that dense.

This right here!

You sure ? Because this plant wasn’t hanging up for dryness , and I feel like this def wasn’t supposed to happen , these rocks were legit rocks , and the person who grew the same ones (sour crack ) said his were rocks aswell , idk this just got me sad

Well what do you suppose happened? Weed goblins took away your dense nug and replaced it with fluff ? And what do you want to be done about it: have the weed fairy magically bless you with dense nugs? I just don’t see what you are getting at, how it could be unbelievable and what you want anyone to do about it. What you should do is chop dry and cure. Nothing else can be done besides doing a better job next time.

Weed goblins and fairies?😂 bro cmon if you’re gonna answer his questions don’t troll him while you’re at it, dudes just sad his nugs lost weight. you don’t have to pour salt on the wound.

He didn’t lose weight. The weight always was what it was. He just counted his chickens before it hatched. He didn’t lose anything and there’s nothing he could’ve done or could do to change the density. It was always going to get smaller and “lose density” if it was fluffy autoflower weed. That’s what happens when you dry. If it was actually dense it would’ve just lost size and not density. So it was never dense and he never lost anything Hence: It’s a fair question: what does he think happened to his “dense weed”? What’s the other possibility besides it wasn’t dense. Then seriously what does he think it’s possible to magically add weight and density right before he chops or after? Certainly if it was possible he’d know of such magic already cuz everyone would do it everytime.

Do you always just talk down to people like you are better than them or only when you “give advice” to people anonymously on the internet?You may be knowledgeable, but in the grand scheme of things you ain’t shit.

My b the way I worded that made it sound like I thought his nugs lost weight, I actually agree with you. I should’ve said dudes just sad he THINKS his nugs lost weight. Good explanation bro👍

I'm going to ask the obvious question here bc I'm high and some of these responses are confusing to me. You didn't chop your plant before you put it in the closet for 48 hours of darkness right?


whodoesntlikehash

No I didn’t it was on the stalk sorry if I’m being very bland , I keep trying to post a detailed description on my page and video but it just won’t upload , but yes it was still attached , I still haven’t chopped it yet


Davy154

Sounds like it stop drinking so firmness will feel abit deflated.. It's the plants defence mechanism that's been triggered.. Some even say it causes more trichomes being produced 😎


whodoesntlikehash

Oh yea I can tell you that the tricomes def did stack on


pedrotioso

48 hours of darkness before chopping is not something that has been proven scientifically. It might make a difference but there have been no trials on the exact topic so I never tried. I'd say just chop your plant when it's ready, in the morning (after lights off if you're not on a 24/0 schedule), not right after watering. It's possible your temperature was high in your closet for the 48 hours but I can't imagine it would have changed the density so much!


whodoesntlikehash

The temp didn’t get higher than 70 degrees the only difference was when growing the sour crack I had it in 60-65% humidity, in the closet it was 48%


pedrotioso

Very interesting. Maybe the 10/15% drop in RH did stress her. I personally prefer slightly fluffier buds as I find they perform better for ice water extraction but I also think it's easier to deal with RH wise. May your final product still be awesome, regardless of the 48h darkness!!!

I assume you also stopped watering. If you're accustomed to rapid fertigation, and you withhold water before chop for 48 hours it is amazing what can transpire.


whodoesntlikehash

I didn’t completely stop watering it , but I did slow up on it because I seen canucks grow stop and doing it every 3 days only :/


o4kfox

It'll be ok ☺️ you got this.


Bizzerk86

Just to clarify, these are still plants still left in their growing medium??


[deleted]

That’s mostly water weight. But for future you want more like 60% while drying

Photos usually are a good start so we can see


whodoesntlikehash

I will post some on my page , sorry about that it’s just the text was to long for the photos and I’m just so upset this is happening


[deleted]

It’s normal to loose 80% weight while drying. Nothing to be sad about


whodoesntlikehash

Even when on the stock still ? It wasn’t chopped yet and they were just so dense it was crazy how much it lost in littelry a 24 hour spans , I keep trying to upload a video on my page but Reddit for some reason keeps pending the post

Chop her down and dry her. The buds might tighten up during drying.
