so i harvested one of my plants and deceided to water cure it so i could smoke a blunt on my bday. i smoked a joint of it today. it did the job.

it looked pretty cool because my buds had a ton of orange hairs on it. after i cured it it make the green and orange darker. so the orange really stands out, almost like neon. i smoked a bowl of it and got that white ash, so i guess it worked. it still smelled planty when i smelled the buds up close, however, the taste wasnt planty at all when smoked.

the way i did it was put my buds in a tupperware, put a plate on top, and then filled with water. changed the water daily. another thing that sucked it it kinda squashed my buds(with the plate on it) so that prob took away from bag appeal more than anything(the sides that got squashed look almost compressed). its all personal anyhow. i was also suprised on how fast it dried from the water. with a fan blowing on it, it was 100% dry in about 16 hours.

After smoking non cured weed the last 2 weeks, I wish I woulda water cured a lot more than just this quarter. But whatev. Ill take some pics later of what it looks like. I could prob pass this off for real deal hydro even tho its some homegrown bagseed.

ps- smoking hash oil everyday for 2 weeks dramatically increases your tolerance for weed.

very coool weed.. thanks for the info!!!

Good report. When you say your buds got "squashed" because of the plate, I'm not sure I follow. Did you place the plate on top of the tupperware or actually touching the buds?

damn when mine get bigger imma water cure now that i know it actually works good

Noob, it works for what I've read but be aware that if you love the aroma and taste of a finely cured herb, you won't get it water curing. It's one of the downsides of the rapid cure - you lose the taste and the appearance. However, for those that can't wait 5+ weeks to dry and cure, this is a viable alternative.

coo and like the post said about water curing " increase the potency" ????

I don't know about that one. I DO know that when I cured mine the traditional method, the potency improved. Having never done a water cure, I wouldn't be qualified to answer on potency.

If you dont mind destroying you hard earned crop yields water cure away.You loose the looks the aroma the smell and the difference in taste but other then that water curing is great lol.Its just a waste to do it to good buds

Yea, water cureing is best if you didn't flush, or you wanna little smoke that's easy on the lungs.
