When the buds are removed from the screens they get moved either into large tupperware or the black garden trays and are covered to slow the drying and draw out internal moisture from the buds. Buds are turned daily and allowed varying levels of air depending on the moisture content.

After a week or so of slow drying in trays they are sealed in tupperware and burped until the enclosed hygrometer reads between 55%-58% humidity.
At that point, the buds are vacuum sealed into 1/2oz and 1oz jars and continue to cure in the jar until sold. Sealed at a higher humidity will risk molding in the jar, while humidity under 55% will be over dry and prevent the bud from curing.

Since we only sell prepackaged sealed jars, the bud can not over dry in the display case before it reaches the patient.

Hope that helps...curing in Colorado can be tricky due to the extreme lack of humidity, especially in winter.
SoCoMMJ Reviewed by SoCoMMJ on . quality of mmj since hb1284 what is your opinion on the overall quality of meds since hb1284 passed? I used to go to dispensaries to buy samples of strains I've always wanted to try, and would often find at least something worthwhile after looking at a dozen or so jars. Ever since private caregivers were no longer allowed to sell their excess meds to dispensaries, I have personally noticed that both the variety and the quality have gone down significantly is it just me? or do you see the same? my friends who work Rating: 5
