After harvest, the stages a marijuana plant goes through while being trimmed. Starting with the pruning a fan leaf , to “sugar leaf” trim (used in oral and edible applications), finally producing a finely manicured bud. Which is essential when drying and curing a fresh marijuana plant.
I spent hours on end, focused on the budvolution of the freshly cut plant in preparation for the drying and curing process.
The stages between harvest and use. First, fan leaves are removed. Then, the “sugar leaf” and trim. Next the drying and bucking of bud. Finally, the curing stage.
The Budvolution between shaggy untrimmed to groomed perfection is perhaps a messy one, but also wonderfully smelling.
