    Default Weed got much better with time! Didn't know it did that.

    Good day folks.

    I grew some plants last year & messed them all up when I screwed the lighting up. 4-5 weeks into flowering The lights got put back to 24 hours 2 hermies & some pollinated plants to show for it. Lots of seeds etc. I posted it before.

    I harvested it anyways & I smoked a bit after it was in the jars for about a month or so. It sucked. But I was going to make BHO out of it anyways.

    Well, long story short I left it in the jars (about 6 of them, perhaps 2-3 oz per jar) in my basement for over a year, we sold & moved & I found them.. I had forgotten about them being there. Well I ran out of bud so I decided to try a HgUE joint of the crap stuff thinking I would have to smoke a ton to get high & low & behold I was a mess. It still isn't say 100% but it certainly up there in the 85% category.

    To simplify it, if I had paid for it I would have been happy.

    I didn't know this could happen. I thought once cut & dried/cured that was it. But the year os so left in the bottles made a huge difference.

    Anyone else ever have a similar experience?

    Please comment.

    Thanks

    Good shit happens....yes I have had both good and bad happen over time...some got better and some just dried out and was chemically weak. Glad you had a good experience.

    i always try to save anywhere from 1/2 oz to an oz and store it away for a few months. and everytime the saved buds are more potent and taste way better and also smell becomes more sweeter. it makes a huge difference after 2 months of being stored away and even more after a year.
    never hold your farts in because they travel up your spine into your brain and that is where shitty ideas come from

    Most of your competitors in the cannabis cup often cure their entries a yr before entering them.

    I'm glad I read this post. My Tangerine Dream which took forever to finish has been my biggest disappointment. Two months in the jars and neither the smell or potency is there. I guess I can let these buds stay in the jars for a few months and get back to them, hopefully there will be a difference.

    A lot of your taste and smell is determined during the dry stage.. Too fast of drying will hurt the final results... How long did you dry them for?

    Yep.. I just opened a 1 1/2 yr old jar and vaped a bit. It is smoother and stronger... more mellow then when it was cured less than 3 months.
