Nutrient lock-up is the worst thing for black ash, when people over feed and don't flush it ruins the final product
Some of the best bud ive ever smoked was black as tar ash. ive smoked clean white ash that barely hit. Weird topic.
Bullshit artistry. There are no cannabis growers. Just bullshit artists.
Crazy that Marlboro has the whitest ash I’ve seen. Must have been grown to perfection 😇😂
I may be weird, but I like trying cannabis at every stage starting week 7 always pull Buds around day 50 as testers. I will also smoke at about 90% dry cuz I'm impatient. I always get white ash so this topic is weird. I get white ash at every stage from testers at day 50 to 6 month cure. I'm just a homegrower though.
Harvest at end of week 8 used advanced nutrients till week 7 and only clean drinking water after that for last 2 watering. Then let the soil dry 3days after. Dry for 5 days(still drying was just inpatient) pack it in a cone and it’s smoked white ash solid till half way fell on its own. Soon cure then the taste will come in.
Plant oils, triglycerides, have different melting points. Some genotypes produce triglycerides that scorch at lower temperatures. Think cooking with coconut oil vs olive oil. Olive oil will turn black at a lower temperature than coconut. (Fact check) It's the same thing with cannabis triglycerides. Sure a proper cure is optimal. But in most cases black ash from dry buds is the oil chemistry profile and a pita if you're smoking joints. 💯✌️🦚
Most organic growers grow boof. It’s the truth , they need to swallow there pride .
Phosphorus
dry 65/60 14 days, cure 2wks+…. Ash is always light but never white….
I find different papers can make it burn black as well. Also how much moisture is left in bud.
i would like to add also one more thing DRYBACKS
