a long harangue about this was posted just days ago ... look down the list, you'll see the whole debate ... personally, not me, I prefer a long slow cure, and having great taste and aroma ... water-cured stuff does look like shit, at the very least :smokin:

If you have just a small amount that you're wanting to sample, water curing is fine, in my opinion. But, it's going to have a "green" taste, and is certainly going to look like a pile of crap. IR is right, though: sufficiently dried/cured buds will definitely produce a better flavor & aroma, and is well worth the wait, if you can handle waiting that long! :jointsmile:

Other than small samples, I won't touch my buds - other than to mix them around in the jars - for at least one month from the time I cut them down, and sometimes even longer than that. When I finally do get around to consuming it, I'm never disappointed.

i tried water curing with a small amount from my last harvest. i was not impressed with the results. the pot looked good to smoke but was devoid of any flavor or aroma. smooth smoke though, and still potent. i prefer air curing over water any day though. i like to taste and smell the herb.
