CRUNCHY BUDS

[BOYZNUS]

I JUST REMEMBERED THAT I HAD A FEW PLANTS HANGING TO DRY. THEY HAVE BEEN HANGING FOR 4 WEEKS. THEY ARE HELLA CRUNCHY NOW.
WHAT CAN I DO TO GET SOME MOISTER BACK IN EM, DURING THE CURE?

IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?

I have read to add a green leaf to each jar. Would be nice to be nother pot leaf... but I assume the same effect would happen if you went outside and grabbed a leaf off a tree.

have not done this, but this is what I have read.

[BOYZNUS]

THNX, WILL TRY IT. STUCK A SLICE OF BREAD IN THE BAG. WILL SPLIT IT ALL UP AND TRY THE LEAF THING ALSO. THNX

If you want moister and no taste then from what you use I use carrots. Slice it about 1/2 inch thick, depends on how much weed. The more carrots the faster it goes but not too many. Put the carrots in a paper towel when you cut them and dry off extra water. This helps so no water gets on bud and moulds. Put all in a bag or mason jar and check on it often, every few hours unless you only put a few pieces in. When they are back to nice bud then do the jar cure to make shure you don't get mould. Man must be nice to just foget about some hanging for a month. LOL. Try it carrots don't leave any taste behind, only the bud taste.

THNX LOCNAR. I MIXED THEM WITH OTHER, FRESH BUDS, AND BREAD. I WILL RUN TO THE MARKET, GRAB SOME CARROTS, AND TRY IT TOO. THNX . WELL, I NORMALY DON'T FORGET HANGINGS. IT WAS A PANIC THING, AND WHEN I WENT TO THE CLOSET,,, OH MAN!!!! GREAT SURPRISE. I MUST BE GROWING GOOD SHIT. HE HE HE

Just mix with wet buds. Or the flavor could suffer.

I like the subtle nuance from adding orange peels. They also seem to release their moisture slower than lettuce, so I'm able get it exactly how I want it.

Just personal preference, though.

[u.g.u]

I added flour tortilla no smell just moistore make a burrito with it and leave it over night in a bag

WANNA GREAT WAY TO DO IT?

You can also do this with regular dried bud...

Get some of the best randy you can buy. Dont go cheap.

Get a small glass jar.

Plas only 5 or 6 drops of brandy in the jar and turn the jar so the brandy spreads across the glass and doesnt puddle at the bottom.

Let it sit in the jar, airtight, stem down, for 21 DAYS UNTOUCHED.

On day 22, remove the bud and enjoy some of the finest aromatic sweet bud you have ever had.

Brandy Bud!

It works great.

[BOYZNUS]

WHAT A GREAT IDEA HARDDON. BUT, ONLY WITH BRANDY?

[The Grim Reefer]

Mmmm.. brandy.

I don't know how I feel about "flavoring" my buds though!

[Tom Swierzbinski]

Whats wrong with crunchy buds if its for personal? Are they more harsh, or is it just a personal preference that theyre squishy? It does add appeal to the bag if the buds are a little moist and dont crumble I suppose.
I know that they get stronger with curing, but I wouldve thought that drying for 4 weeks would convert all the THC from its acidic form into its psychoactive form.

[HARDDON]

Brandy is the only thing I have tried. Maybe some cognac would be nice or some B & B.

The smell is so rich and dark and the flavor of the smoke is really nice.

Nothing wrong with crunchy bud at all...but...a little moisture will help it burn slower, which means less heat, which means less harsh.

[Stickyplant]

Try it with a little Sam Adams Chocolate Bock!

[MonkeyRacket]

You can add a slice of potato, it will moisten them without altering the flavor too much. You could also just make some nice hash out of it..

[Tomthehippie]

orange peal.

[The Grim Reefer]

I wonder if this would work with Jack Daniels.. I have a bottle..

[busteruk7]

yeah i heard the potato and orange peel work ok
cheers all :)
