Well I just managed to test one of my pet theories about revegging and old bud. The theory is that the old bud - it has dried on the plant - is a connoisseur smoke. Some expert growers have disagreed.
I can now say it's all in the timing. I've had old bud that was crummy. I left it on the plant too long.
I just began cloning from my one and only remaining mom. (Revegged). As I take clones I am carefully clipping the old bud. I don't want to shock the plant too much. The old bud has by now turned a cinnamon colour and the bud is half-dry. The trichs are way dark!
I took a large bud straight off the plant yesterday and dried it out a little bit more in the warm dry day outside. I tried 1/3 of a regular sized zigzag. It put me completely out within about 15 minutes and I didn't wake up for three hours. So I would definitely classify this as sleeping-pill quality!
Conclusion: Old bud can be really potent but you have to be very careful with the timing.
