im wanting some info on different ways to dry and cure so i can be prepared when it comes time to harvest .
Use the search feature. You may get a bunch of posts telling you to do that, do it. But I'm feeling nice off some weed which I'm currently curing, so I'll chime in. Hang your buds to dry for like 7 day's. Then, and this is optional, put 'em in a paper grocery bag for 3-10 days till they are really dry. Jar 'em up, and burp them (open the jars) for like two hours everyday for 1-2 weeks, rotating the buds from time to time, checking for mold daily. At this point try a little out. Potency should be high, and taste should be on the way. After another 2-3 weeks, the buds should be great.
Absolute Beginners Compendium of Helpful Links click that, scroll down and you will see the Harvesting section. It will give you three guides for harvesting and curing your crop.
Yes, and also there's a whole forum here at GC on the topic: Harvesting and Processing - Grasscity.com Forums. Several sticky threads, tutorials etc.
thanks this is helping a lot. any one who has done any experimental drying and cureing i would also like to hear about that and how successful it was
