food dehydrator ????
It is important to not let it get too dry... Which if you do it right and dry for about 4 -7 days.. then the buds should be crispy on the outside but kinda moist on the inside. Then you put them in jars and this pulls the moisture out and makes the whole contents of the jar consistently moist. The level of moisture is preference but if you keep it too moist it may mold. If you keep it too dry, i won't have alot of weigh to it. It wil turn into dust when you break it up and it doesn't look quite as good as fresh-looking buts that have the slightly moist consistency. A little moisture make it seem alot stickier. The curing process is what gives it the smooth taste. All the chlorophyll and fertilizer compounds that are in the buds is what makes it harsh and will give you a sore throat. This is why you cure. Over time the fertilizer breaks down. You can actually see the chlorophyll breaking down because the buds will be green at first then they fade to a greyish-green-brown color. The key to smooth tasty buds are: 1, using organics, 2 Flushing the soil 1 or 2 weeks before harvest and, 3 Curing it for as long as your patience permitts (After 6 months it doesn't get much better). I think 2 to 3 months is the best for most people(who aren't rediculously obsessed with having the best bud in the world. But for the beginner I would suggest a month.
