alright...but what if my buds are already dry? can they still be water cured? or should i just cure them regularly?

yes you can water cure dried bud, soak it in water for 3 days changing the water each day, the water will go a green colour darker on the first day lighter on the last after the 3rd day take out and dry, you may need to use a peice of timber to hold down the buds
i did this to some really harsh smoke and after the cure it was the smoothest weed i'd ever smoked

I keep mine submerged for 7 days. You'll want to really be careful drying. Keep an eye on them. They'll rot quickly if not dried fairly quickly. You'll lose most of the smell but it will smoke nice.

I don't recommend water curing unless you've got nothing else to smoke. It comes out very dark green, almost brown, and has a musky/earthy odor that does not leave a pleasant after-taste.

It truly does lose a great deal of its pleasant taste and aroma.
