Can you show, in a way that is meaningful and provable to everyone else here; that there is as massive a difference between weed cured in a mediocre fashion and well cured weed as you state?

Well, I was talking about drying not curing. Drying is way more important than curing. And yes there is a difference. Bud that is dried quickly tends to be a harsher and overall less enjoyable smoke compared to a slow dried bud that will smoke smooth and tasty. When bud dries too fast, moisture gets trapped inside the bud and in the stem the bud is hanging from. Which is why most non-commercial growers prefer the slow dry method. As for my information being provable, I would say its a matter of opinion. But youre free to try it for yourself with your next harvest.

Curing is where your flavor and potency come from...you can hang dry for 4-7 days, as long as you don't dry em out all the way. The cureing will make the diffrence, hanging to dry is just to take enough moisture from your buds to prevent mold or bud rot

I do a slow dry, that's what a cure is. Curing draws that moisture in the middle out, it's part of the process. I do prefer it for taste, I haven't noticed that it makes it much more potent though. If you overdry it, it will stop the cure though. That's more dependent on how dry it gets though, not where it's hung.

just a helpful hint ive used, sorry not trying to butt in, but if you over dry your buds, you can use the humidifying capsules to rehydrate your bud that they use in humidors to keep cigars fresh.

Some dude sold me some weed wrapped in a tortilla once.. I was like wtf is this? He explained his buds got too dry from not being stored properly and that a tortilla will moisten them. When i looked at them, they were so wet it was hard to believe the plant wasnt pulled that day. It worked but it compromised alot of taste and smell
