You can use the fresh stuff, you'll just have a little more trouble grinding it up to be cooked.

Yeah, fresh leaf can be used, but it's a lot easier with dry leaves. And there's no need to cure, or slow dry them. I just put them in a brown paper bag, and shake the bag every day or two until they're crispy. Then I put them in a food processor, and reduce them to sawdust for making cannabutter.
