ill have to read the advantages of water cure. it seems quite good that u can cure 1st for a week then only dry for couple days. quicker than a dry for 7 days and cure for 7 days.

is the smoke just as good?

Main advantages are:

- Quick smoke (basically 8-9 days from chop and you can be rolling a joint)
- Is well cured (as in all the shit is taken out of it like a 30 day air cure, but better)
- Burns very well, like as good as tobacco in joint form, specially if you use a grinder.
- Less taste (can be an advantage if you don't like the taste of what you're growing)
- Less smell, easier to hide, keep on the down low etc.
- Get you just as, if not more, HIGH!
- I've found that depending on the strain it can tend to give a better buzz, maybe due to all the crap being removed from it.
- Oh, and did I mention you can smoke it, fully cured, 9 days after you chop!

Can water curing be used to get rid of mold? Just curious

+rep nice How-To

I'm not actually 100% sure on that one, but I do recall someone mentioning something about that a while back... I've never had mold, but if I get it I'll test it and tel you! Haha. It quite possibly could, I wouldn't think mold could grow when completely submerged under water.

Do u think u could get away with just water curing for five days?

Vrey interesting,will give it a try with a small amount.

What's wrong with 7 days? haha

Yea you can cure for 5 days, but it's not a full cure, more than 7 days is simply unnecessary and offers no additional benefits, and cure for less than 7 days is sometimes not enough to get out all that shit you don't want in there.

But doing it for 5 days will still work for the most part mate. Especially if it's organically grown or you properly flushed.

I added a couple more advantages to the list above, they're listed in this list

Main advantages are:

- Quick smoke (basically 8-9 days from chop and you can be rolling a joint)
- Is well cured (as in all the shit is taken out of it like a 30 day air cure, but better)
- Even when using synthetic (chemical) fertilizers you don't need to flush them for 1-2 weeks because the water cure will filter out all the chemicals and shit anyway.
+ Note: I believe flushing offers benefits other than just filtering out chemicals so I encourage a good proper flush anyway, but for those who don't think it has any added benefits other than removing chemicals, water curing means you can feed with synthetic fert right to the day of the chop.
- Burns very well, like as good as tobacco in joint form, specially if you use a grinder.
- Less taste (can be an advantage if you don't like the taste of what you're growing)
- Less smell, easier to hide, keep on the down low etc.
- Get you just as, if not more, HIGH!
