Then I move the buds into 1/2 gallon curing jars (about 2/3 full), put them in a dark room at 60 degrees F/40% humidity and start burping them. This goes on for around 10 days and during this time I slowly drop the humidity to 30%. At that point they are burped a couple times a day for the next 2 weeks. After that, they are sealed and allowed to sit in a dark cool room for another couple of weeks. After that I burn a bud to see if I believe in the product. If I do and I think it is ready, I weigh it up and give my patients and client dispensaries a call. The longer you cure (if properly done), the better the smoke will be.

I've been enjoying going back to some old stuff, and can really appreciate the difference after a month or two over just-harvested of the same variety. The biggest problem is letting them hang too long. It seems like sometimes 1 day is too short and two days is too much, with it getting too dry. Lately, I've been just hanging for 1 day, then I remove the buds from the stems and put in a 1 gallon jar, leave the lid off, fill it Rating: 5
