How long do you wait before first taste?

Hey all, Skywalker OG, five days after chop.

Still too moist to think about grinding or torching, but getting close. The nugs are condensing really well. Going to be dense.

Smells so good I want to burn some now, but I don’t want to get a headache.

How long do you wait before your first taste of a new grow?

It’s a small harvest, probably two or three oz. I never weigh, so just a guess. But it’s not a huge haul.

When it's ready to be jarred or bagged for curing, I sample about an 1/8th oz to smoke and test potency with my body/head and a THC & CBD testing device.
Make my notes then do it again after about 3 weeks of cure to see what if anything has changed and how the cure is going.
Then I seal it until it's time to smoke it all or turn it into an extract.

It depends. I’ve trimmed a branch before chop to test and I’ve waited until jarred and cured.

The Strawberry Lemonade I have hanging 11 days now. I tested the lowest little side branch on day 9 iirc.

It wasn’t dry but I don’t mind for a vape test, I don’t test with joints. It ground up okay, no clumping or issues. Taste and how it hits the back of the throat is what’s most noticeable to us, with the vape. It wasn’t a great taste. You knew it wasn’t ready. Kind of sharp on the back of the throat. High was nice. Wife though it was like a kief joint.

I’d say you’re around the okay mark if you just want a little sample and can’t wait. I only seem to get headaches if the weed was chopped early, but that’s not happened in a while.

Yea agree no definitive answer from me... usually can have it to a burnable state in about 10 to 12 days, I usually sample some smaller lowers when it's time to jar

I've dried with a space heater, dried it on my dehu....smoked it a little wet if I didn't have a back up....my answer is all over the place ..

Ideally though I like it best about a month after being in the jar.....like right now I'm getting to the bottom of my jars from last harvest and the shits only 3 months old...but I liked it better a few months ago...it's not really doing anything noticable for me just kinda losing flavor over time

I'll smoke as soon as it is dry if it entices me enough. Just as a taste test knowing it can only get better.
I know how much a difference cure can make.

I usually pull a few small ones and let them sit on my keyboard for a few days then mix it in with some that's dried, 3-4 days will do it
