My first plant

This is the first full growth attempt. I grew her in 4 months.
I cut it down 3 days ago, and its dry enuff to smoke. So Im veggin out to some "Led Zep Presence" And Im glad I did this :D but.....
It doesnt taste like bud tho it is. Its sweet and piny tasting.
Will the rest of it taste more like bud after I cure it? Coz Im gettin stoned off it for sure but its not too pleasant tastin shit.
I got about 35 nugs off of it, and it weighed almost 2 ounces wet.

When I cure should I put a lid on the mason Jar? And should I store it in the dark or what? How long. Its a dumb question for sure, but I looked a little bit for info on it, but came up with nothing?

i suggest you never put it in a jar!!im from s.africa and i have been growing for over 5 years now and going strong!!!
if you want to cure your weed so that it has a wonderful taste,simply get a box preferebly cardboard or a box made out of plywood works best!!!
what you do is put enough holes in the box on the sides,under and on top!!!

THIS MIGHT SOUND EXTREME BUT YOU SHOULD LEAVE YOUR BUDS IN THIS BOX IN A VERY DRY AND DARK AREA IN YOUR HOUSE,MOST GARAGES WORK BEST IF YOU HAVE ONE!!

LEAVE THESE BUDS TO CURE FOR THREE WEEKS WITHOUT DISTURBING IT!!

IT MIGHT BE A LONG TIME TO WAIT BUT ITS KNOWN AS ONE OF THE BEST CURING METHODS EVER KNOWN BY TOP GROWERS!!!

I HAVE BEEN DOING IT FOR 4 YEARS NOW!!!

HAPPY TOKING:TYRON

Thank you, very helpful. Ill follow your instructions and see what turns of it.

I would not recommend the box method. It may work for Mctkuruptg, but he may have the perfect humidity level where he lives in South Africa. Use the mason jar method after drying the buds for a few days. Seal them in the mason jars and open them once a day to replenish the air. This way you can control the humidity level and allow the buds to cure slowly. I don't know what top growers he's talking about, but many top published growers and breeders use the mason jar curing method. I have used it also with excellent results.

sounds like swazi skunk that has a piney tasting but you may of not flushed it out properly so it will be full of the fertiliser next time feed it loads of water a few weeks before harvesting

You're drying it out to fast at least a week that's why ya gettin the piney tast!

Hope this help's!:)

PEACE TO ALL!
