I just picked up 2 grams of the greenist, most beatuiful and glorious piece of greenery I have ever layed eyes on. I was told that it was picked yesterday. It's so sticky it's hard to break up and it's wreaks so greatly.
The only problem is, it won't burn. At all it seems. I have tried out of the bong and my glass pipe. What should I do? Thanks. :rasta:
well you have to dry that shit out before you smoke it
lol its wet dude u have to dry it... if u want to get 100% of it dry it for 2 weeks and maybe cure it a little bit (thats another 2 weeks at least)... or u can just put it in the microwave and have a harsh smoke...
ha ha... yeah..nice score..but first look at what ya bought after you dry it...in a week let us know what ya got...good score anyway...lots of fresh budsow...i should not laugh i microwaved some 2 weeks ago..
its not so bad microwaved, just keep it to a 15 sec maximum...
Thanks for the replies everyone. I can wait a week or however long it lasts, it's so beautiful, I think I would like to put it in a jar and just stair at it. :stoned:
What is the best method? Bag it or no? Just leave it uncovered? Thanks again.
if you can not wait...please do not flame me everyone....just put in oven if possible an leave it at warm to 250 for like ten minutes....or roll in joint microwave...1000watt microwave=15 sec.
I also bought an ounce of decent midgrad today so I can wait on the dro to dry out. I am stoned right now and listening to some great music. :thumbsup:Quote:

Well i guess if you really feel like smoking it just dont pack the weed in like in pushing it down. Just do some small loose bowls and you should be able to get it light unless it is actually like really damp.
Hmm, I expect my bud to be already cured when I buy it... Oh well, you're not trippin, put it in a mason jar.
Put that shit in a J,
did u burn it with a regular lighter or a torch lighter
torch lighters usually burn my wet bud
lol, you know it's going to lose up to 80% of its weight by the time it's dry?Quote:

Exactly. You pay full price for lets say on ounce for $200 when its wet, that 28grams of wet weight is going to go down to about 5-10grams. In your case, having 2grams of wet weed, the final weight on that should be no more than .5 of a gram.Quote:

leave it by a window or radiator to dry or put in the microwave for 2-5 seconds (best way)

Ohh well, its pretty dank shit i'll give him that.
EDIT - ohh and the only reason i even paid for it was because i was paying in advance, i knew the guy so it was straight giving him money up front, or so i thought. got the call about an hour later and picked up the short sack.
Why do people believed freshly picked bud is the best?
im glad ive never bought wet weed
if you cant wait leave it out in a sunny spot for about 3 days and then just smoke it works every time.
Strong light breaks down THC. Leave it in a dry, shaded place, not in the sunlight.Quote:

Set a piece of paper on top of your monitor and put the wet weed on that. Give it a few hours and the heat off the monitor should dry out your buds a lot. Or just leave it sitting out overnight. It works.
I did this (the monitor thing) last week when I bought a bag of freshly picked weed that was pretty wet. Don't worry... I knew what I was getting cause my dealer told me he added a couple extra grams (for free) to my 1/8 because the weed was wet. And he was right on cause I weighed it. But I'll be damned once I got that shit dried out, it was an incredible smoke. :D
best way to dry fresh bud is a dark, cool area (do not dry in sunlight) with some air movement but not necessary...i usually hang dry in a closet. if you're curing, let the bud dry until the outter surface feels dry but the stems and inner are still moist and pliable...usually only takes 2-5 days, depending on ambient humidity. once partially dried, place in a sealable jar (for small amounts) and close the lid, opening 2-3 times/day for 15-30 minutes. do this until fully 'dry' (it shouldn't ever get toasty dry) then store in your sealed jar in a cool and dark place (i use the bottom shelf of the fridge) and it'll stay fresh for many months...usable for years.
You want a low heat to dry it. I had a lamp that the shade would just fit an aluminum pie pan. I'd set my green bud on the pie tin, turn on the light and flip the bud a few times. Worked fine, but it was slow. Now that I have a vaporizer, I just pop the wet bud into it. The first hit or two tastes "green" but it's OK after that. It's nice to have an early taste from my plants, now and then.
Thanks everyone for the advice. I have an ounce of decent midgrade to get me by so I can wait until it dries naturally.
Just an FYI: I paid very little for this and considered it a good deal. Great weed can be difficult to find so I had to jump on it when I could.
And thanks for the tip about the weight and it drying out. Luckily, he didn't weigh it up or sale it by weight.
