You need to cure it in a jar for a period of time until it reaches the taste/scent/smoke that you want.

Keep it in a jar, open the jar for about 15-25 minutes every 24 hours. Keep it in a dark, cool, dry area, and within a week or two (depending on strain and time harvested) you should have excellent smoke.

Yeah there was thc on it when i harvested..right now it only gives me a buzz but a buzz is beautiful in the morning man. Another thing..somehow when i smoked my weed i managed to notice that whenever i smoke it, my tongue would get like dirty n shit from smoking it. How is that possible? lol thats some wierd shit.

Yeah i put the weed in jars yesterday and opened it 2 times so far. Nastyrudedogg 2 up, said that all weed should smell at least a little like weed but my f@cking weed still smells like ass. My nugs are small because i had to pull my plants early but that doesn't mean it should smell totally fukt...First i was like oh well..but now im kinda pissy cuz it took me long time to grow those bitches and i want it to be right. Damn! i hope that using the jar technique really brings back the way it should smell. thanks peoplez

Im not expert... thats my disclaimer.. but I read a shitload. Small buds... 4 days drying at who knows what humidity? You might have over dried your buds. Next time get one of those small hydrometers and put that in the jar so you know where you are at. And start them in the jars when the stems will still bend some.. with some cracking OK. Stems that snap aint no bench mark.. the dryest stem will snap... you need moisture in the bud center to cure. Dry and crispy on outside.. but a lil moist on inside.. Below a RH (relative humidity) of 55% and your to dry (the boat u may be in) . And... you cant reverse. This I can attest to. Slow dry to the RH that wont get you mold (below 70% but ya still gotta burp the jars).. if over 70, paper bag em for awhile then re-jar.. Then slowly bring down to ~60% but not less that 55 by burping. Bingo. I think.. haha Makes sense to me.. and many sources back up my lack of knowledge. Read the sticky.. deep as it gets better when the smart guys chime in. Ebay or amazon a hydrometer.. $16

Actually the device you refer to is a hygrometer, I believe. A hydrometer measures something different, like battery acid and salinity. I bought a bunch like this on eBay for like $4 each and put one in my jars:

There are many models and styles at about that price.

you need to dry it longer before you put in jars. 1 week and it is tough because after 4 days you think its ok. 1 week at 50% RH and burp them regular until the humditiy gets to 50% or so. I use those cheap humidity things you get at the dollar store or crappy tire and put them in 1 quart jars until they are reasonable and they put my best buds in 1/2 cup jars for me. The rest are gifts and they can get the not perfect buds i reserve for me.

I am greedy like that.
