Every person that grows marijuana has a special way of drying. Some growers use heaters some use dehydrators. One of the many ways to dry herb leaves and flowers is to cut each one individually and place it on a screen. Then, place the screen of cut herb and flowers in a low or now light place, fan lots of air over the screen and wait 6-7 days.
The longer it takes for your buds to dry the better. This is because when the stems are left attached to drying leaves and flowers, the moisture has to work its way down the stems to escape. The leaves and flowers tend to dry out but then re-moisturize as the stems and branches pass moisture back up.
Herb and flower drying is only ½ the process. Many of the oils and resins in the weed, need additional time to change their state and cure and mature to maximum flavor. A 2 week period allows a slow maturing time and makes for the excellent marijuana taste
.
However sometimes humans are impatient  there are quick ways to do it which will be explained later on.
Now that your done go blaze .
