I have an old variety that we moved from growing up our old barn to a flower bed by the house to see if we could utilize and save it. This is the third year at this location and we had it analyzed to find out that it is Mid/Late Cluster. So I did harvest that sample a little early according to AARLab…
I wanted another 7-10 days and finished harvesting. I dried half on screens and half in an outdoor hanging herb dryer. What I’d like to know is…do these cones look right? I am totally new at this so need some expert eye to take a look. I did give the lupulin a taste and the bitter has stayed on my tongue for about 30 minutes.
Oh, and I didn’t realize I should have weighed the wet cones before drying so I have no idea what the moisture content is.
I’d just like some advice if anyone has anything helpful to say! Thanks!
