drying and curing

[hawk2319]

hello i have just completed my first harvest. i have an idea of how i want to dry and cure but am looking for other ways. my brother dries until outsides are crispy. then puts in jars overnight and pulls the moisture back out. then dries until the stems snap and puts back into jars to start curing. puts it in a dry, dark place with mild temps for 40 days. i have heard of drying then freezing then drying and jarring, but i have heard that freezing pulls thc out and ruptures it so i dont know. im drying at about 70 degrease and 48% humidity so i think im on the right track so far. if im not please say so. ha. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks everyone.

I don't know about the whole freezing thing... but here's something I've found that looks fool proof: http://boards.cannabis.com/advanced-...very-time.html

hits 55 to 60 in the jar, I then keep the jar closed until the curing process is completed? Is this correct?

I have done a little reading on the subject but I can't remember what I read. Maybe I go back to the book.
