Well since you don't want to look it up for yourself, I did it for you.

fer·men·ta·tion [fur-men-tey-shuhn]
–noun
1. the act or process of fermenting.
2. a change brought about by a ferment, as yeast enzymes, which convert grape sugar into ethyl alcohol.

Go ahead, try to "ferment" your plants... Haha.

I am sorry but the laugh is on all of you doubting this method. This is very legitimate way to cure weed.

Way to hook them up Big.

When I read the thread title, I figured it'd just be some more urban legend bullshit like driving iron nails into your stalks, but this is actually some very interesting reading.

Interesting
And what and how does this help the drying process?

Hi - thanks for your interest. I think it's very interesting too.

PotPower - this doesn't help your plant to dry - it give your plant a head start to start curing process even before harvest. This should give you even softer smoke that usually since a lot of the harsh stuff is allready gone at harvest time.

Doesn't it take longer for them to dry since your not cutting off the water before harvest? I'd figure the cure time would be about the same either way if that were the case.

Hi 420God - yess - exactly that. I would never dry out my own plant before harvest. We are exactly trying to make the plant dry as slowly as possible without molding - at least i am. If you read all the material provided in the thread you'll understand why this is better. This will also greatly increase amount of THC, since other cannabinoids will degrade into THC during the curing.
But if you just want to dry the weed fast then you can let it dry out before harvest to make drying process fast - but it will make your weed weaker and harsher.

Glad all of you enjoyed my research and are trying it and discussing it, it works, I have smoked the results

I spend a lot of time either proving or disproving the myths, this one was proven real

Water+Plant+Submerging = Scary to me lol Only thing I'd try is water curing

water curing sucks, been there done that,

you don't submerge the plant, you simply drown the roots for 10 days

Holy shit the first page is so full of misinformation and utter stupidity I didn't bother to read anymore.

If you don't really know what you're talking about, please don't speak. You just add another layer of stupid that is not needed on a site like this.

The only stupidity here is to stop at the first page and declare this thread of no use. If you had read the entire thread you would have read this research article showing this technique to be a viable process. That type of closed minded responses is what this site truly does not need. It is already full of forum hype and myths!

Here is the link again: https://www.rollitup.org/blogs/blog1231-harvesting-drying-curing-research-study.html You may not agree with it but ya can't say its misinformation.

Right on brother. That's what its gonna take break away from some of the forum hype that gets passed around. Riddleme has been posting on here long enough and more than enough have tried some things he writes about and I have yet to see someone come back and say it didn't work. He isn't forcing anyone to do any of the things he post about. All he asks is that you try it before condemning anything or produce the research disproving it?

Like I said before! You may not agree with it but ya can't say it's bad info.

Peace
