well i thought i should share this with you folks. i harvested one of my plants early, 2 weeks early so i could expieriment with water cure method. i chopped my plant and put in into a ice cream bucket with clean drinkin water and changed the water every day for 7 days. the buds got real dark and the smell went away. it is a pretty smooth smoke. smoothest i ever tasted. i wouldnt recommend this to anyone if they care about smell, taste and looks of the bud. but other then that i think im gonna start air curing 50% of my harvest and the other half water cure.

yea i know pic sucks

you said the look and the smell were affected, but what about the high? was it different from the rest of the crop?

interested in the high myself

i chopped the plant down weeks before it riped. the high was nice. never had to smoke more than a bowl to get high. but the high wouldve been better if i waited for the plant to ripe.

your not the first person to chop chop early

did you use a dehydrator?

i let mine air dry in front of a fan for 2 days and it didn't turn out good. it tasted like shit so i threw the plant away.

to date i have never heard a great report on water cure. the closest i have gotton to water cure is getting the buds wet.

It just sounds like it works. Doesn't sound like anything to rave about, I might try considering I do have a dehydrator with a temp control on it. But thanks for the report man!

no i didnt use a dehydrator. i put my buds in front of a fan for a coupla hours. what i have noticed about my water cured bud is that it burns slower.

Maybe a great idea for a blunt? SUPER SLOW smoking! And less harsh...hmmmm
