Medical cannabis is legal in 38 states nationwide, with more on track to join the list in the coming years. In most places, medical cannabis patients can grow their own medical cannabis at home, and many take advantage of the outdoor cannabis growing season. There\u2019s just one season for harvesting cannabis outdoors, but when it\u2019s done right, it can be very plentiful.<\/span><\/p>\n

In contrast,<\/span> indoor cannabis crops<\/span><\/a> take an average of three to four months to grow from seed to harvest, meaning patients who grow indoors can have three to four harvests a year. Outdoor growing<\/span> has its own advantages<\/span><\/a>, though, and for those who partake, harvest time comes just once a year in October, or, as it\u2019s colloquially known,<\/span> Croptober<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tips for Harvesting Cannabis Plants<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When you decide to harvest, whether it be indoors or outdoors, here are some tips you can keep in mind to get the best results possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pre-Harvest Prep<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Pre-harvest prep will make harvest time a whole lot easier. It also stands to help growers preserve the natural cannabinoids and terpenes in those last few crucial days before it\u2019s time to chop their crop.<\/span><\/p>\n

Understand your plants<\/b><\/p>\n

To maximize yield and potency, it\u2019s essential to base your harvest strategy on what cannabis strain you\u2019re growing, whether that\u2019s indica vs sativa vs hybrid.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sativa strains, known for their energizing high, have a lengthier cultivation period. In contrast, Indica plants yield larger buds and a more relaxing, couch-lock-type high. Hybrid plants combine traits from both Indica and Sativa, resulting in a balanced effect.<\/span><\/p>\n

Broadly speaking, Indica plants typically require 8-10 weeks to flower, while Sativa and autoflower plants can take anywhere from 10 to 16 weeks. Hybrid plants fall within this range. Nevertheless, these flowering times can be influenced by environmental elements like day length and temperature.<\/span><\/p>\n

For medicinal cannabis growth, harvesting at peak cannabinoid content is crucial. On the other hand, if you’re cultivating cannabis for recreational purposes, it’s advisable to wait until the plant reaches full maturity to achieve the desired effects.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flush your plants<\/b><\/p>\n

Water them heavily daily to help flush out nutrients that may be in the buds from cultivation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remove all excess leaves from your plants<\/b><\/p>\n

Trim your plants as they grow, leaving only a small amount of leaves on your buds to help with freshness and flavor during the drying process.<\/span><\/p>\n

Split the stems<\/b><\/p>\n

Though this step is optional, many home growers swear by this technique as a way to increase their yield. Start 7-10 days before your harvest, and gently make an incision below the lowest branches of your cannabis plant.<\/span><\/p>\n

Harvesting Cannabis<\/strong><\/h3>\n

When harvest time arrives, and it\u2019s finally time to chop that crop of cannabis you\u2019ve been carefully cultivating, follow these tips to maximize yield and potency. Read<\/span> our guide<\/span><\/a> to dry trimming vs. wet trimming your cannabis plants for more information on this step.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cut your cannabis plants toward the bottom of the stem, leaving a small nub behind.<\/b><\/p>\n

When performing this step, be careful not to pull the branch out of the soil. This mistake can damage the plant and lead to a decreased yield of cannabis flowers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remove any excess big leaves you may have missed during your pre-harvest prep.<\/b><\/p>\n

Removing the fan leaves and sugar leaves on the outside of the cannabis plant\u2019s buds will speed up your drying time and help prevent mold and mildew from growing on the flower.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hang them upside down to dry.<\/b><\/p>\n

Hang-drying is an essential step in harvesting cannabis. After you\u2019ve trimmed all of your plants, place them upside down on whatever hanger is easiest for you. Make sure they\u2019re in a cool, dark, and properly ventilated space, as humidity levels and airflow are crucial for successful curing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Drying Cannabis<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You\u2019ve spent weeks flowering your cannabis crop to perfection. Now, you have bushy buds covered in the<\/span> trichomes<\/span><\/a> that produce terpenes and cannabinoids like THC and CBD. It\u2019s time to dry your cannabis\u2014but be careful. Many growers misstep in this part of the process. Here\u2019s some tips on how to dry your cannabis for maximum potential.<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t rush the drying process<\/b><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t rush the drying process or let your plants become overly dry. Nothing is worse than growing a beautiful crop only to have your cannabis buds get all funky and moldy a few days after you chop it down. Dry your cannabis for at least one week, and don\u2019t put pressure on yourself (or your plants) to produce a fast yield.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dry your trimmed buds in a controlled environment.<\/b><\/p>\n

The ideal drying room is essential for harvesting cannabis: a cool, dark place with low humidity and good air circulation. Good airflow and a dark environment will help prevent your cannabis buds from growing mold. Investing in a hygrometer can help you maintain the perfect humidity levels and ideal room temperature.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep fans from blowing directly on your drying rack<\/b><\/p>\n

Fan-drying your cannabis flower directly can cause them to lose flavor and potency by drying them too fast. It takes about eight to 10 days for most plants to dry before it\u2019s time to trim them and prepare them to be cured.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you can put a dehumidifier in the room where you are drying your cannabis plants, you can better avoid issues like molding. You can tell your buds are ready to be trimmed and cured when the branches on your plants snap instead of bend. A good snap means it\u2019s time to trim and cure your cannabis crop.<\/span><\/p>\n

Curing Cannabis<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A proper cure breaks down the cannabis plant\u2019s primary metabolites, including sugar and chlorophyll, essential for a smooth smoking experience. However, curing cannabis takes time to perfect. Nevertheless, there are some golden rules for curing cannabis that everyone should follow to prevent spoiling their harvest.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cure your cannabis in an airtight container<\/b><\/p>\n

Any airtight glass jars, such as mason jars, should do the trick.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep your airtight containers out of direct sunlight<\/b><\/p>\n

Preferably, your glass jars containing your dry buds should be placed in a cool, dark place\u2014such as the drying space you created in the last step.<\/span><\/p>\n

Burp the jars<\/b><\/p>\n

Open the jars once daily for 5 to 30 minutes to let them exchange air and help prevent mold. This process is called burping your cannabis. Place clean buds back in the jar and toss them to make sure the flower cures evenly. Alternatively, if the buds are too dry, toss in a humidity pack\u2014like a Boveda pack\u2014to rehydrate them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reap the benefits<\/b><\/p>\n

After about 14 to 28 days, your freshly cured buds will be ready to consume or used to make cannabutter<\/a> for edibles. Some people run their cure time for several months. For long-term storage options, view our guide to storing cannabis flower<\/a> and increasing shelf life<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
