  • how long should u cure

    

  • you should do something special for your 420th video!

  • heyy me and my friend want to start our own grow. can you tell me how many ounces a single plant will grow??

  • @kooooljoechris Indoor grows can yield like 2 oz per plant and up. I would say 2 oz minimum if you use the right soil and take care that the plant is never stressed or deficient of nuts. Although lets face it, its your first time so both those things will happen at some point during the grow lol. Depends on the strain too, good seeds yield good plants with large buds. Bag seeds grow outdoor plants that prob wont help you as well as not be huge producers.

  • @kooooljoechris depends on your veg predominately

  • good shit dude nice love it 

  • thanks for sharing your vid with us kb. peace

  • Can you use regular sink water to grow your own?

  • @FRiEDcameltoe .. yes but make sure to supplement nutrients so the plant doesnt become deficient.

  • @FRiEDcameltoe also let it sit out in an open container so the chlorine evaporates...they will thank you much plants hate chlorine

  • @FRiEDcameltoe no - you need to check the ppm - plus as you add nutes afterwards, the ppm will rise. In the end product of making your water nute solution, best practice for most strains is to keep the ppm around 1800 to avoid burning etcc.. If you see it go over 2000, just add more RO water to it in order to bring the PPM back down. My sink brings water out at 800ppm and when I ro it, brings it to 25ppm. Then I add nutes.

  • @FRiEDcameltoe I wouldn't recommend doing it, just for the fact that tap water has a bunch of softeners and crap in it, I go to Walmart and buy 5 or 6 gallons of spring water to feed mine, and use that to mix with my nutes. Thats just me tho

  • @FRiEDcameltoe if its not city water yes as long as its safe to drink id imagen you can use city water but i know they add chemicales to purify it just my opinion

  • yo kb kid i got a q iwhen u dried ur harv did u controll tha room temp...e.t.c..? cause i harvested and dried mine perfectly but through out the cure process it lost flavor and aroma so think u could hlp me out by answerin a couple q.s ihad sum 1 hlp me and ended up gettin ripped off so any infos appreciated thanks

  • @sativaxindica024 When u cure, make sure there's no moisture in the stems before jaring them. There's no set amount of 'days' for this. Then once jaring them, make sure to burp the jars throughout the day.

  • @libertylives2 wats burp

  • @MRT0BY510 Hey whats up man. Burping is just opening the jar to let the moisture that built up out of the jar. It's just a matter of opening the lid for a second, take a good smell and smile then put the lid back on. I was taught to also keep the jars in the dark during the process. For best practice or whatever.. But light isnt going to hurt them. I forgot to last time. peace man

  • nice nice

    

  • Decriminalize cannabis- end the war on drugs- free the weed smoking political prisoners in the USA- Vote Ron Paul- not a repub? change partys to repub to vote in primary ASAP deadlines to do so are here or fast approaching. Take a stand Vote Ron Paul!!!!!!!!!!

  • Just burp 'em (take the cap off) for a week or two. No need to dump em' out like that, knocking off the trichomes.

  • you would only hang it in cole temperature to turn it purple..making it not really a purple weed..just frost bite

  • @TheGoofball3000 .. the fuck are you talking about?

  • @kbgrowkid420 LMFAO 

  • @TheGoofball3000 Yes, this is right...marijunana turns purple in cold temperatues :) this means that it wont be a purple strain of weed...but the colors will be purple bceae of cold temps..

  • Cool video bro. More power to you and yea Fuck Obama and the rest of the democrats and republicans.

  • Bro i love your video's you come out with some nice ass buds, you grow the shit that i wish i get, and on this video, i saw something that made me respect you even more, gta posters, and vice city being the best one

    :D

  • NICE BUDS

  • bollox! u r not a grower... guys leave whole cutted branches in dark place with 14-18 degrees temp ABSOLUtely darK!!!!!!! to get rid of chlorophyl (thing schratching yr throat while smoking) let it dry properly! and there u go !

    obviously he aint no proper grower.... look at the sugar leaves... pffffffff

  • @kamikaze8571 .. they were hung in total darkness on full branches. You sound like you are speaking out your ass. Lets see yours.

  • @kbgrowkid420 lol i laughed for a good 5 minutes just reading the ( u r not a grower ) kids retarded

  • @kamikaze8571 Hahah, uncultured idiot, the itchy feeling you get in your throat is not from chlorophyll, but more from an improper flush - or in what you are smoking it out of; I.e; if you use a butane lighter, you will get an itch in your throat, or if it's crap weed, you will get an itch, chlorophyll does not make a difference if you cure it in the dark or not... Saying like the Uploader said, "sure looks like you talking out of your ass" You looked smart until you spoke.

  • DANK 

  • I feel like trimming is easiest right after harvent, or when they are totally dry. Trimming during the drying process is a pain because the leaves are limp and wilty.

  • watch?v=aOTMw9T2i3c

  • @cruwysgirl , you should trim the leafs, and after dry the buds and cure them. Other wise it would be har as fuck to trim eith dry leaves. When the leaves would be trimmed, keep them, and make some jash ;)

  • Can any one tell me when to begin trimming? I just harvested and wanted to start but maybe I should wait???

    My ex took care of all the details now I am alone

  • im very new at this, and i dont understand.. the plant and all the buds on it should be ready to harvest at the same time, after i cut them all the plant wont die? he will grow again from the same point i've cut the branches?

  • i didnt get a chance to flush my plants cause there have been a couple of days that were close to freezing and i went ahead and pulled them cause a good freeze was coming,they look great but i just got done fertilizing them 3 days before pulling them,so how long will it take to cure do you think?

  • normaly what i do is i make sure its super dry then i take some of the leaves i cut off that are stored in a air tight container and then i put the buds back in with the leaves so some of the moisture is put back in the bud.

  • air tight glass containers only!!!!!!! plastic tuperware butty box's will make your buds sweat every time

  • dude your weak we grow at my house with 1 thousand watt MH and a thousand watt HPS and you dont put the weed in the jar damp you want your buds completely before the jars because they will taste moldy

  • how do you know when to stop drying and start curing?

  • @HatteReal  when u take your bud the stem should snap when u bend it

  • damm, I am just sick over this... my year I tried to grow... I got many different strains,,but i really only like kush... over a week ago I harvested my biggest plant. 6ft..10 inch's... many many cola's... I hung them up for a few days... and then put them in tuperwhare containers.... well needless to say, all the sugars are gone.

    two big 8 inch buds are completely discolored... from mildew.. I took all the buds out of the tuppewhare and put them into glass jars... but all the taste is gone.

  • @anyshitt... wait til they dry 1st before containing them somewhere airtight. and open the container daily to release excess moisture. . the outer bud feels dry but there was a lot of moisture left inside the bud.

  • @kbgrowkid420 Man this hurts,, I learned alot this year.. but made alot of common since mistake's or

    took short cuts with my planning.. so are you saying it was the inner moisture that killed me and not the

    tupperwhare? all that medicine down the drain.. I got almost 8 ounce's from 1 plant. is that an okay yeld

    for an plant?  next time I am going to try the tie down method, net's and super cropping.. 6 ounce's of my

    kush still has some color to it and some sticky. I dont want it. but

  • @kbgrowkid420 (cont) and i dont want to give it away to any other patient, because I dont know how

    safe it would be for someone to inhale? thanks for the advice man... I have been looking at everybody's

    video's for a few month's now.. you and rest of the pack are a source of big time inspiration.. I wish I had of spoke up sooner...s I am going to buy a tricrometer thingy ( what ever its called) tomorrow so I wont be guessing, the next time I cut a bush down

  • @kbgrowkid420 god send me some :)

  • @anyshitt duh.. you cant put them into a tubawhare.. you have to have a good seal like on a mason jar.. lol i feel bad for you

  • @redsneckboy lol I feel bad for me too, because of my blunder, I wont have any indo left in a month or two! and I am swimming in sativa's that came out real well,,, but I did not want that much sativa? I dont think I can come up with the resource's for an Indoor grow? but I sure want to take care of some more

    plants again..

  • @anyshitt u did not hang them long enough and u also probably never aired the buds out, u probably just left the container closed for some time

  • @420srhrings yea your prob right on all counts..it's so funny everything that I cut down after that is doing

    very well.. (Hawaiian Skunk) (Ak 47) probably got 6-7 ounce's of the H,skunk...but I did not want this much

    sativa... I need sticky,, heavy,, tasty sweet. indo. I really climate, room temp, and humidity play's a big roll

    in my drying process going north or south... I am already biting my nails thinking about next year!

    thanks 420..

  • @anyshitt Do NOT use tupperware or other plastics. Only use glass containers for curing. Or else you are messing it all up.

  • @anyshitt a lesson learned

  • nice.....

    

  • metal i can only hope to achieve such grows as you xD

  • if the jar gets wet when you empty it should you clean the sides off with a rag or leave the moisture there when i put the buds back in?

  • @bojanks15 dry it off, r ttr

  • @bojanks15 dry it off, your trying to get all the excess moisture out of the buds

  • thank you, iv been looking for a video on how to properly burp your buds and how long to do so.

  • hey man how many days do i have to do the curring process ..the putting it in jars and taking it out and drying for 15 minutes ??? how do i go about that

  • @skulls210 you can cure more than 6 months if you want. doesn't matter. the longer the cure, the more powerful the product.

  • How long do you cure it for?

  • get off bama dick

  • nice all the gta maps on the wall lol right on

  • omg I just figured out the coolest thing.. I have an old plastic water jug.. the big rectangular kind with a round lid on the top. so i have my bud in there curing and I can suck the air out through the water spout then it seals up air tight when I let it shut. sweet.

  • @Frickitall do you not understand. NO PLASTIC!!!!

  • kinda didnt give much info like how long to cure for when should you take your mods out to get air?

  • How much would the 2 plants be worth if you sold em?

  • @DisInfoWars plants are not worth anything. the buds are. depending on how good it is and what kind of strain. if you have regular crap bud, don't expect to get much. if you have a high quality strain , it all depends on where you live. if you're in an area that has lots of good bud, it will be norm to pay 200 oz. if you're in an area that almost never has anything good except regs you will make 500+ or more per oz.

  • @DisInfoWars sorry . i mean 200 half oz

  • You shouldnt mix your lighting;)

    

  • @Stacmeister911 .. and why not? Many growers do to get a wider light spectrum.

  • @Stacmeister911 yeah why not smarty pants????????

  • @Stacmeister911 if your're using t5's its good to use half veg and half bloom from start to finish. some use hps and its their preference. but remember. its the tech that makes it, it's the guys ambition and experience that creates the end result

  • Nyc diesel sux tho...Sour diezel is better...Oh yeah-fuck Obama!

  • @TheRealStinkyface ..If you say so.. NYCD is straight dank! and yes Fuck Obama

  • @TheRealStinkyface

    i disagree completely.

  • @stupidplants oh, you're homosexual?

  • @TheRealStinkyface

    no.

    the Sour D ive had is never as good as the NYC ive had, different growers so that may make a difference, but the NYC is always more "diesely" and longer lasting.

  • @stupidplants ... I agree. I've yet to see a grower match my NYCD in stinky dankness. I've shopped at many dispensaries too.

  • @kbgrowkid420

    i really cant think of a bud that compares to NYCD in scent... nothing really comes close to the amount of dankity dieseley reek. the grower i get it from cures it for about 2 weeks, then when i get it i keep most of it in the dark in a glass jar like these for at least another week, really brings out the diesel... ALOT... like burns your nose..

  • @stupidplants Sour D and anything with the post-label Diesel is better than NYC here in Southern California. NYC diesel is also sold as an indica, but Sour D is a sativa.

  • @stupidplants Different growers means different genetics.. what many people fail to understand is yeah you might have some diesel, but there are so many different genetic variables of plants.. they are called pheno types. If I order a 10 pack of diesel seeds and you did too.. theres a good chance we wont end up with the same pheno type.. I may have a more potent plant, while you may have a stinkier one.. mine may only take 8-9 weeks to flower while yours may take 10-11 weeks.

  • @Robmar420

    of course its different genetics, were talking about two completely different strains.

    and what your talking about is not pheotype. phenotype is color.

    your talking about the parent P1 then the offspring F1,F2, so on and so fourth. if your getting 1st generation seeds from the same company, you should always have the same results. the further down the line you go the more variation there is.

  • @stupidplants ..phenotype is not color, it the the genetic drifts between the 2 parents.  Imagine 2 parents with 5 different kids. No 2 kids will be exactly alike. some may look more like others but not the exact same. That is phenotype.

  • iv always wanted to grow but im scared to being i live in fl where its illegal what is your opinion on this

  • @AwwC00L i live in fl too. i also want to grow but dont cuz cops are fuckin haywire down here. thats one reason i wana get the fuck out of fl

  • @AwwC00L plant them by a river and bring a tackle box and fishin rod with you every time u go 2 check on it, they cant arrest u 4 fishing, but id get my fishing liscence just 2 make sure or jus say fuck the cops and do w/e u want like i do haha

  • men fuckk this weed farmers men, putting this shitt on youtude. am out here licking the computer screen.

  • i just leaned in and sniffed...

  • @KidguY27 mee to man haha i caught myself but if hes growing pot why work :P fuck i love weed

  • @586kris me too. white rhino x northern light is the strain i currently have xD

  • nice pipe at 1:16

  • damnn i can smell that from here

  • what i would give to have buds like that again. i moved from cali to ga....it sucks

  • hahaha San Andreas Map there on the wall xp I have it on a wall too

  • how long you veg? under an month?

  • Which plant smoked best 1or2

  • @TheYounggrower450 .. I don't even remember. this was almost a year ago.. I'm sure I didn't favor 1 over the other NYCD is straight dank.

  • Where should I keep the jars? Light or dark and what kind of temperature?

  • nice having a job

  • p.s this ant shmeao just using her comp

  • dear kid he means break em up no long buds, cuz they mold .and 5 days is to short,7 to 14 . also u can leave em too long in the can try 12 hrs in 12 out for a week

  • @TheLastFlowerShmeow ... it depends on where you live and the time of the year. In Colorado, mid summer, 5 days and its ready for jars. 12 hours in/out is too long out of the jars when curing. Better to burp it in 30 minutes intervals 2-3 times a day for the 1st couple days until all excess moisture has sweated out. And no... big buds won't mold in your jars when u do it right.

  • dear kid he means break em up no long buds, cuz they mold .and 5 days is to short,7 to 14 . also u can leave em too long in the can try 12 in 12 out for a week

  • I always roll up on high times mags and dream of amokin buds like that...

  • mmmmmmmm..mmmm

    

  • ey i wanna start to grow. i saw yoyu can grow using the new swirly bulbs cfl or somethin like that and i want to know if you can tell me all the suplies i need to start??? thanks

  • lucky guy

  • Its all about the air circulation and the temp in the room. The temp must stay cool if it is too humid mold will find its way into your buds. Should be left upside down in a darkroom without any interruptions. After about 5-7 days your bud should be ready for phase 2. Next your buds should be put into a glass jar for about 2 weeks. Everyday the jar should be opened about 2-3 times so the buds can get fresh air. Once that is done its time to roll a fatty and enjoy your BUD.

  • Yo bruh I NEED some good ass INDICA BUD, If you could Message me homie yeeaahh!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @bjust25 roflmao

  • Just a whole bunch of buds ( :

  • I said " dont be like me and most folks I know. WRITE IT DOWN .

  • the vice city map is bad ass.

  • Maybe its the other way around.....whoooa

    Its so easy to do ......LETS all remember what Brother Dave says. "Shortest Pencil better than the longest Memory .." Respectfully BlucrossBreeder

  • @bingramtube... Not sure what u mean by that

  • Maybe its the other way around.....whoooa

    Its so easy to do ......LETS all remember what Brother Dave says. "Shortest Pencil better than the longest Memory .." Respectfully BlucrossBreeder

  • does the bud have to be cured in jars? or can something else be used. plzz reply back thanks.

  • @marijuinnalover123 people use those canning jars specifically because it's close, if not, air tight. And it's glass - crystals will bind to plastic, so that cancels out using plastic bags or tupperware.

    Those jars are cheap, and they do the job.

  • that wouldnt last me months...a month maybe

  • Do they smell real danky?? I mean I know Thell smell butt on tha scale from 1-10??

  • dude i want that badly !!! :L ... just had a spliff but that looks fucking yummy lol

  • that looks good. where can i get seeds?

  • curing is awesome slowy dries the bud to perfect moisture level brining out alot of crystal gives the best taste and smell and potency

  • nice short tut

  • i got a lot of that hay smelling weed, smells weak but hits pretty good

  • for seeds at low prices visite my channel or message me

  • @supergreenacres yes you want to put the buds into the jar when it is still wet, no shit that's the whole purpose of curing. You're basically slowing down the drying process and getting that last bit of moisture out that the drying couldn't get to without completely drying out the rest of your buds. After drying it's like the banana that's been sitting out that's turned yellow but still has a little green left in it and all it needs is that final cure to turn yellow and be ripe.

  • put it in a brown paper bag and dry it it takes all the moisture out the bud

  • you gotta open the jar altest 1 time a day,and cureing weed is like wine the longer your cure it the better it smokes,tastes,smells,and stickyness trust me im da bluntman i live to grow budda mon :)

  • your room must smell nice :)

  • looking good bro.

  • I can smell it through my computer screen! just kidding...

  • love the GTA maps lol same with me bro  even thought i know all the citys i think it helps looking at them all the time . buds look great man

  • yeah i left mine hung up for 14 days then seal in glass tubs and open them once ever few hours then keep sealed i find slow cure tases really nice but if your someplace warm and humi it can be hard to dry slow

  • supposed to snap fully before jars. not doing it slows the sugar conversion for more potency and better terpens for flavours. and a proper cure is min 3 weeks.

    i dont like that wet hey smell by not drying them enough. and should be opening jars a few times a day at first then less each week./ they still produce cannabinoids after being cut and a quicker dry like that is stopping this

  • @SuperGreenAcres. no hay smell.. When I open the jars my whole room instantly smells like I just butt fucked a skunk (I'm not trying to talk my shit up, this really is some of that weed that people know u have on u from across the room). I've noticed that I only get that hay smell when I don't fully flush the plants. and I do take them out several times a day the 1st few days. I kinda rushed this video for a dude that requested me make 1 for him.. I should have done several clips explaining that

  • @kbgrowkid420 is all good man

  • @SuperGreenAcres i respectfully disagree! never put bud into a jar if the stem is snapping....you wanna suck moisture out of the stem and if its snapping...theres no moisture left! someone needs to watch jason wilcox's vvideos! cannabis in Canada!

  • @BlessedGanja hahahahaha...so your opinion is betetr then science and esting thjis poty thrpoery i take it then...ok. your thie first in my20 years at this that has told me to put in jarts still wet. um we belong to the same group of poeople. you dont think ive seen them.

  • @SuperGreenAcres you dont want your buds to fully snap. they are supposed to almost snap, you still want a little moisture. if you let them dry too much your cure wont end up as good.

  • @ProfessorGerbik ...well thats your way. i can test for efficacy as i go to give me my best results, so ill do my way

  • @SuperGreenAcres of course i understand that, but what comes down to it is whats truly right, not what is best for you. not to say by any means you arent getting good results. when the cure is done it will be too crumbly versus slightly gooey, of course its preference i guess but ive always found the slightly gooey buds to be a lot better in every aspect than bud that were obviously dried too long.

    also most assume it has to be extremely dry snap, most should know you still want some bend/snap.

  • Comment removed

  • @SuperGreenAcres i know you obviously take growing seriously and have some very lovely plants as well as a setup but when someone who has won a cannabis cup several times says to have at least some bend and not to let the bud get overly dry from hanging ill take their word for it no offense.

    also as said before with a proper flush it helps a lot with the hay smell, never had that problem really. always smelt great.

    to each his own but there is a fine line.

  • @ProfessorGerbik ..well the canna cup winning means nothing. its all bought n paid for and the public knows this, ive smoke some of my worst weed at those cups. flush as nothing to do with hay smell...thats moisture and nothing more. ive cut with no flush at all and dont get that smell nor this so called nute tatse in the bud.

    again, ill stick to what the test results tell me for my best ways. not the human opinion that isnt anywhere near as accurate

  • @SuperGreenAcres i guess my 6 years of growing is nothing but a haox, im sure you possibly could have been growing longer but the way you are speaking shouldnt be so arrogant. its not bought for and paid for by the public, DNA Genetics enough said. If your going to talk shit about that then you are being an ass.

    flushing has nothing to do with smell or taste is what your telling me? i thought this was a intelligent conversation for a moment so i think im going to drop it here. to each his own.

  • @ProfessorGerbik .. I agree with you about the concepts of curing/flushing, I always start the cure a day or so before they are fully snappable.... but please take this argument to PM between u 2.

  • @kbgrowkid420 ...ya no worries dood. i didnt think it was an argument till he had to start the childish name calling...im not even going to waste my time and respond ther the know it all...6 years....hehehehe

  • lovely kb, fancy shipping to a patient in the UK?

  • show the nugs in good light ?

  • i dry for 5 days ,, and cured and i got that hays smell,and went to mold.

    does aeroponic take longer to dry,, what about putting in the freezer is that good,,

    am looking for that lime green,,, if not cured right it will turn dark,, its just so easy to f up the bud,

  • @metubegirl69er dont leave it in a jar for more than 12 hours...then set it out and dry again till its crisp...keep doing this and lowering the cure time 2 hours dry time 2 hours....just keep doing it till your down to 0 and youll never worry about mold again! good luck blessings

  • @BlessedGanja

    thanks for the info,, bud,

    stay high,,,,

  • @metubegirl69er also hay smell USUALLY is to much N left in the plant...should lower the N intake and let the lady suck them leaves DRY not yellow DRY!

  • @BlessedGanja .nitro has nothing to do with hay smell. thats from not dry enough before jaring it and is the only reason for hay smells.

  • @SuperGreenAcres yes N does have a lot to do with the hay smell and taste...i know first hand! and depending on when and how you cure dictates the high and quality of the final product! no ones even mentions these things...;)

  • well if nitro has to do with them why not run water till its all yellow. cause till you do there is still stored foods in the plant. running the medium to even 0 ppm dont get the food out of the plant. and doing this reduces the thc levels. and i can prove that.

    this sucking moisture from stems makes no sence ata ll...you dont cure it afetr a dry...then the rest comes out then. ive done ,many many ways of dry n cures and tetsted alll. so is why i say what i say. do you have yours tested???

  • @metubegirl69er . It depends on your surroundings on how long u should dry for. If u live somewhere humid it will take way longer. I'm in Colorado and the air is dry as fuck here so It takes less time. freeze it only after it has fully dried.

  • @kbgrowkid420 FREEZING IT WILL CAUSE TOO MUCH MOISTURE THAT CAN DAMAGE TRICHROMES.!! PUT IN A HUMID ROOM WHILE IT HANGS FOR SLOWER COOLER DRY.

  • @kbgrowkid420 why do you freeze?

  • @metubegirl69er ......mold could have also been from to high humidity in dry room. no the style of grow has nothing to do with dry or cure times. looking for lime green???? never seen anyone adjust colour form a dry/cure

    the dry/cure is as important as the ,ain grow. most dont bother to take the time ti do it right and dont know what they are missing

  • @metubegirl69er hay brother my uncle always puts his freshly trimmed budd right into the freezer fresh off the stem. Then 3 to 4 weeks later its crip.

  • ohhh sooo goooog!

  • Sweet brother, looks delicious.
