sound like ferination of tobacco, they do the same there to smoothing the smoke. premium cigarette tobacco is treated this way so they don't have to achieve the effect with chemicals such in Marlboro's...


for sure one more great post from good old videoman, thx i gone try it with my big bud

that will may help with those salts from the nutes but not with the chlorophyll of the plant since this fist starts to dissolve after the plant is cut and can't build any new anymore and this isn't the best for the taste but for a smoother smoke, like with tobacco as i said, there the same trick is done with premium tobacco for cigarettes

This statement has me so confused. chlorophyll is released thru the water cure process.

oh you, that was regarding flushing the plant in its last days before harvest and not about the water curing videoman the kid thought flushing would help with the chlorophyll of the plant but as long the plant has stored some magnesium salts it will rebuild on it. so to get it out you have to get the salts out first and then the plant would have still functional chlorophyll for about 2 weeks until it would be all used up. chlorophyll deteriorates fast if it gets contact with air, so in air curing, but water curing is more affective and faster since it will flush the cracked chlorophyll right of the dead plant material in which no new can be build. also penetrates water deeper then air

so i hope this will get my neck out of the loop again video

hey man, this sounds like a great way to cure! wine makers manipulate the temp of their fermenting solutions to retain certain terpines...experimentation with this method may come up with a way to retain more of the unique flavors!!

The THC is NOT water soluable, so the same 15% @ 100g is no longer correct since you only have 70 grams of bud left.. so take that original 15 and divide with 70.. and wal-la, you now have 21.43% of THC in your 70 grams of bud.. it makes since when you work it out..
I dont think you guys understand how to measure the potency of weed. The % of THC is meausred by dividing the amount of THC content on the bud by the total weight of the bud, this gives you a fixed number percent that does not change. So if you had 100 grams of weed with 15% THC content then there is 15 grams of THC in that 100 grams of bud. If you were to water cure that bud you would get 70 grams of bud with 15 grams of THC, now where you guys are getting mixed it is: you now have less bud weight but the same amount of THC on that bud that you did before you water cured it, it doesnt make the bud more potent just cleaner.

using your example, 1 gram of your regular cure weed has .15 grams, correct? ok, .7 gram of the water cure bud has .15 grams THC. a higher percent of the mass of water cured is THC, i think we can agree that this is more potent??

I think basically the argument about potency is that once you cure with the water method, it would take less in the bowl to get high. Instead of smoking the rest of the crap that's in the pot, you get less pot with the same THC. This means you would need to pack less in the bowl (joint, whatever) to get just as high.
