Home made strain, I call it Siamese Skunk. It's quite a nice smoke, but does leave you feeling pretty tired on the down. Not the best strain I have, but it packs on the crystals.

Right on, now i know you described the smoke of the water cured bud, doesn't water curing the nugz get rid of some of the THC with the water? And how important is it to have PH balanced water if you do cure it in water? How does this compare to air dried cured bud? Better or worse? Thanks man!

No it doesn't, THC is not water soluble. A few trichs may fall off, but this happens with general handling anyway and isn't noticeable when you smoke it.

how important is it to have PH balanced water
I'm not entirely sure, like I said, my water is pH 7.0 straight out the tap.
I don't see any reason it would matter what the pH is, I think anywhere from 5.0-9.0 would be fine, but maybe someone can correct me on this.

Quote:

Better or worse... Hmm. It's differnt! Haha. It really depends how you like your bud. It's generally a smoother smoke with a less pungent taste and smell... If you're going to the pub with it in a spliff (tobacco and weed mixed in a joint) it's better than regular just because you can't really smell it over the tobacco so know one gets to suspicious of you.
Personally, I don't like an overpowering taste with my weed, and with the strain I water cured, I prefer the water cure to normal smoke, because that taste is reduced.

good post on showing the 2 methods of curing. i water cured half of my last harvest and it looked exactly like yours so i guess i did it right.

i'll agree with you that it doesn't smell, or taste like weed after the water cure, it's much darker and i think my pot was more potent after the water cure. just a few rips and i was baked.

It seems more potent simply because there's less plant mass but just as many trichs.
For example; if you've got 100 grams of wet bud, and you air dry/cure, you're left with about 25 grams of dry bud, so there's 'X amount' of trichs in the 25 grams, but if you water cure that 100 grams of wet bud, you end up with about 15 grams of dry bud, and in that 15 grams there's still that same 'X amount' of trichs as the 25 grams, but 10 grams less plant mass.
That's why it certainly seems more potent, and I guess you could argue it technically is more potent, but when selling, it still weighs less and not many people will by half a gram for the same price as one gram just because you say it's more potent.
