This should be a short section because Ive gone over most of what is to be said. Basically you dont want to have buds that are harsh. Everyone wants sweet tasting buds. Buds have a bad taste for a lot of reasons. Heres a few, Most commercial growers keep feeding there plants with fertilizer. This is because they want the most weed they can get. To have buds with no fertilizer taste you must cut the fertilizer of three weeks prior to your harvest. This will allow the fertilizer to be washed out of your plants buds. Another reason is the way the buds are dried Most commercial growers want to get there weed on the streets as soon as they can so they often will mirco wave the buds to dry them out faster.This will make the buds harsh but you will also experience a bad headache after your burnout. I heard something About coka cola if when you stop adding fertilizer you add 1 ounce of coca cola to 4 ounces of water your buds will swell up with more resin and also your buds will taste better. I have not tried this but im planning to this year. If anyone has tried this before let me know how it went.
