A lot of the taste and burnability of your crop will depend upon whether you really pushed the nutes/ferts way up to high levels all the way through the grow right up to harvest. If your large fan leaves were dark green when you harvested, the taste might not be too good until its cured for a couple months. If your large fans were yellowing at harvest and maybe even dropping off, the taste should be ok shortly after drying.

Tried water curing on overferted buds once. It did take the nasty taste out, it also took out any taste at all. It turned the bud into cardboard flavor, took all the texture out of the bud so it was like crumbling up cheese, and it really had no flavor or taste. I dont recall being too impressed with the high either, although thc dosent disolve in water, maybe all the extra handling reduced the high by knocking off or crushing trics. Good luck.
