Great info, I have used most of these methods, but reading them is a great refresher thanks.:jointsmile:
10 years ago, when my first plants came down, and after it was dried i smoked some of it and i was thinking what a shitty weed....
I put it in a jar and forgot about it...But 2-3 months later i was thinking Wtf. let's smoke some of my shitty weed...
And BANG...it was awesome, and i was sooo happy and high..:D
Form then on i knew that curing is important, so people cure your weed, it makes it much better...
Like some good vine , it needs time....:thumbsup:...nice thread :thumbsup:....
definitly is worth the extra time! my buddy took down his plant a little early and the buds were definitly not dry yet, but he had no choice he was leaving for college the next day. He gave me a bunch and i did smoke some of it that day and it was decent bud. I kept the weed in a mason jar an two weeks later that shit was banging!
I give a vote for this being stickied, if it hasn't, I can't tell. But this is a very little known fundamental truth of cannabis. Many new smokers often associate moist or juicy bud with dankness, or think that because it's just been harvested that it's fresh and perfect. Every smoker should know that the only bud smoked should be nice dry, manicured bud.

Tons of people on these boards like to boast about getting fresh weed and moist/almost wet weed - they seem to think if it's fresh it's the best - little do they know fresh weed is crap and isnt worth smoking compared to what it could be if cured properly and over a long time.Quote:

The smoke should be lovely and smooth - buttery almost.
But hey, if people want to buy wet weed and constantly get ripped off, let them. They're idiots, obviously!
dam, thought that was comon knowledge
Good read, thanks.
Time to invest in a glass jar.
I agree curing is useful for a better quality bud, increasing taste and appearance, but I have trouble finding all this info as credible without any sources, which it a recurring problem with many thing having to do with bud and its cultivation.
Well i guess its more of trust and expirenceQuote:
