Curing plants
the paper bag method is good for a quick dry but is not a cure, which is a slow drying process which takes several weeks, up to a month. if you use the paper bags, be sure to check after 24 hours as they will be probably be at the state most start a true cure...iow, the outter surface of the bud is dry but not crusty while the inner parts are still fresh and the stem bends easily w/o breaking.
at this stage, put them into a container with lid and keep in a cool, dark spot. open the lid several times/day and leave off for 15-20 minutes then close but do not 'lock' the lid. gently stir daily and watch closely for uneven drying and mold, which shouldn't be a prob if condidtions above are meant...ambient temperature means everything as far as length of time for complete cure but usually 3 weeks to a month.
