well it could mean alot of things.....the most common reason for dry bud around here is that it is coming in mass quantaties (like whole field harvest or something) and it's been hanging around awhile cuz they're having problems gettin it off their hands......but i get dry weed about half the time....just chunk an apple slice in there....like i said before it gets it all nice and moist n' sticky all over again plus for some reason gives it an extra smoothness to it....
