Yeah too cure them traditionally (far the best product most people will agree), you want to partially dry them, then slow-cure-out the remaining moisture.
It's taken me about a year to acquire buds worth smoking, because - it appears - these days there're allot of high-yield growers who'd rather turbo-dry 10 pounds of shit, than slow-cure 10 pounds of gold.
So whatever you do: Don't take the fast-cure options. You'll end up with tasteless garbage.
There's heaps of curing tutorials on the net. but certainly believe, that slow-cured is the only way to go, if you want to get the MOST from your buds.
The two half ounces I bought on the spot a few months ago made me hack and cough my hole up, had absolutely no flavour, and just felt chemical and couch-locked me for a while each time I'd smoked it.
The ounce I got a few months before that was no better. On both occasions, the buds smelt great when I bought em, wasn't till I got home and smoked em I realized some fuckhead had dried em so fast (probably harvested them too early too) that they were just a regretful purchase. But what's that got to do with you
Glad you asked: Dry em slooow, and traditionally. If you fast-dry/cure, you'll end up wondering how much better the smoke really could've been.
You just need a gentle air-movement (not blowing ON the buds) to slowish dry em, once they've dried, basically stick em in a jar for a few weeks to 'cure' Keep them in a cool, dark cupboard, and check them every day (for mould, but also just to mix em up in the jar gently). AFter several weeks, the THC molecule will break-down, and become fully psychoactive.
Yeah. Not trying to hijack the thread, but I was wondering if some growers do shit to buds (like the ones I meantioned above) to MAKE them taste fuckn horrid, and .. flavourless.
I just put it down to this SOG 15 pounds every two weeks, and shitfuck herb-drying methods with no cure time at all. But I could almost swear there was something else added to em. Wondered if someone else had any idea what that thing might be..
