Well, last week my friend had some pretty dry stuff. I was like "well, it must be some mids or something." Little did I know that I would be very very high. Either way is good, in my opinion. As long as it hits good, tastes good, and is potent, the dryness/stickiness of it doesn't matter much. Like I said, we thought this stuff was mids, but it was dank. Just cured for a longer time.

I'll take either. But I must admit, I do love those sticky, dense buds, just by nature. But it doesn't have to be super fresh to be sticky. I've had a lot of bud that was sticky, but at the same time kind of dry.

MOBABN is right, though. The longer it's cured, the more the bud gets decarboxylated, which means more THC is "activated" so to speak. So, don't be surprised when that supposed dry bud hits you harder than you thought it would. This is why you cannot smoke freshly harvested bud... not only the fact that it would be very hard to burn, but the fact that it needs to cure for it to reach its full potential of potency. Heating the bud also does the same thing (removes the carboxyl group from the THC), but the more that it is decarboxylated, the more THC that will be in the smoke, and shortly thereafter absorbed into one's bloodstream. Well, that's in a nutshell at least.
