Then after 3 days on the screen if they still arnt quite ready for the cure they go into brown paper bags for 2 days getting opened once a day for 15 minutes. Then the buds should be dry and the stems should make a good loud snap if they bend they need more dry but if they sanp then they go loosely into glass jars that go to a cool dark area and get opened twice a day for 10-15 minutes for the first 7-10 days of the cure then they get closed up and put away for 20 more days.Then after the proper harvest ,dry, and cure and only then do you get to smoke.The cure is well worth the waity as the aroma when you open the jar and the clean chlorophyll taste is perfect and you ll never rush perfection again

    So between the killing of the plant and the first real smoking of the bud If done right should be a month long wait. So thats about a week hanging to dry, two weeks Cure(opening once a day for fifteen minutes),Final Cure two and a half weeks cool dark place in jar. All this give or take a few days depending on bud size.So If this is done the weed should be evenly dried and smell and taste the best it can? If you say that's whats given you the best results I'm going to have to do that.Though I think I will have a little sample after drying, for comparison of course.hehe Thanks
