How do people just "FIND" plants?

How come I never "FIND" plants jsut growing?????

Well you pretty much got it figured out.

After it dries on the stems, maybe 3 days, then manicure it some more and let it dry in paper bags....then after maybe a week, place them in air tight jars, then open them every other day for a few hours.

Your weed is properly cured when your stem SNAPS when bent. Not bends, but SNAPS :)

Congrats on your "FIND". :)

haha thanks....i found it at my work. I think the guy that works over at a bolling alley right next to it planted it. But he never went back for them last year and there better this year. So i was just wondering how to do it....should i dry them outside or inside, in the sun or in the dark?

Dry them inside, in the dark. Drying them in the sun will lower potency, light breaks down THC, and it will dry them much too fast which will result in a harsh smoke.

So, in the dark, preferably with a fan blowing in the room. Not blowing directly on the buds, but in the room for good air circulation. Good luck.
