    Water cure for 1 or 2 days. Anyone tried it?

    I love the water cure in that the buds smoke so clean and don't stink up the room, but it makes my buds look so whimpy and they dry too fast after a week long water cure. I was thinking of tossing them in cold water for a day or 2 to see if if they retain thier size and are not as smelly as...
