Bud-wash after harvest, do you do it?

    When discussed, the subject is treated with the same level of importance
    as watering or drying, but it’s so rarely discussed, that it doesn’t
    seem like a common practice.

    How many home growers clean contaminates off their flower before the drying process by rinsing or dipping?
    Do you use tap water or RO?
    Do you use diluted peroxide?
    How long does it extend the drying process?

    Indoor grows seem like the flower would be much cleaner than outside, but the indoor environment has a lot of contaminates that wouldn’t be an issue outside. Chemical residues from cooking, cleaning, etc. Not to mention, outside grows get a periodic wash from rain.

  • Sometimes when I roll a joint I will find a Fir needle or random natural debris of some sort.

    I’m old enough to have the phrase “a little dirt won’t hurt ya” drilled into me as a child. I also rarely wash my garden veggies unless needed. Or, maybe I’m just too ‘redneck’ , IDK

    I do not bud wash.

    • Yeah I’ve only done it once and to me it really changed the flavor of the flower. Didn’t enjoy it and won’t do it again unless absolutely necessary
