ya dude, just take a sharp clean pair of clippers you trim with er something ans clip a cpl smaller buds off from maybe midway down to the lowers too.either or.you'll be fine.might slow it a cpl days but she should do fine assuming your plants in decently ok shape she'll do alright.I take samples at various harvest points sometimes to test buds as they mature and dry them in two days or there abouts.I dont bake dry them it'll morph the taste too much to truly tell as far as really natural tatse and how it matures and what its supposed to be.the underlying oils wont be nowhere near as present as they should be more times than not.
well one is a small light bulb and tin foil a cpl inches er so above the bulb to bake it over night or 36 hours works ok,a fan once its clipped small.freze drying.all kinds of ways to dry them quickly.but for a tester thats ok i suppose but imho not worth it unless ya just need to smoke..then thats something else entirely man.bake n bake man LOL! but for really tasting it,let it dry naturally with little air flow over it from a small fan for three days or two even n then youll be able to mae a beter call as to where it'll turn out on the scale of yummy man LOL!
