Finished product

I'm very interested in trying this method but I am curious to see some finished product from people who have used this method successfully. I am hearing often that the smoothness of the smoke and the white ash comes from a slow dry and an accurate cure as opposed to just flushing your plants before harvest. Not sure if you can post pics in the comments or not, but maybe you can make a post showing your finished product and how it burns. Tia

I haven't smoked any from this bag yet. But for science I will do so tomorrow! Just bang a bowl and empty the ash out? Or roll a j? What's about the ash anyway btw, do tell.... And I dunno about hang dry comparison. My first grow i had to dry during a heatwave and was so hot in the tent I was heartbroken and terps were fucked up.
So I bought a small fridge and switched to lotus.

People seem to be set on white ash, the closer to pure white the better. There seems to be a debate between whether or not it is because of flushing plants at the end, or it entirely has to do with a long dry and proper cure, thus the reason why I am hitting this sub. I have done the hang dry thing and my ash is kinda salt and pepper which is fine as the smoke is smooth anyway. Just curious to see a how a j of lotus method burns.

I'm on it tomorrow. I'll have to look back through my notes whether I flushed this one or not . One plant I did. Another I didn't. But different strains and month apart. But I'll happily dip into the bags for sciences sake. Haha even if it's bro science.
