smoking and usage

I'm currently curing some buds, and they're dry enough to be cured, but I don't know exactly how dry they are. So does it matter how dry the buds are when you cure them? Also, I'm going to cure them for 2 weeks to a month, so how much more potent will it be?

if they are still moistgoing into the jars then there is a chance of them getting moldy. when your drying bud bend one of the stems and if the stem snaps then its good.

Yup, should be easy to snap and make a nice little sound.

Hope curing goes well!

So it doesen't matter how dry the buds are as long as the stem snaps?

well if the stem snaps it means the buds are dry enough... so they will be dry if the stem snaps

Yeah I know that, but is there such thing as it being too dry?

HI, yes you can over dry your buds...they will get to the point of just pure crumbleness...but you can also bring more moisture back in the during the curing proccess...it will bring hidden moistures deep within out to the top ...so if you over dry just leave in the jar with the lid on for a while and it will get some of it back! Hope this helps!

Hanging them in a closet works for me.
