How to cure mah herb??????
    #19184656 - 11/24/13 09:39 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

I got around a QP that's pretty dank but not cure, I have tons of big mason jars and for now I'm putting the majority of the QP in one of the big jars with a few inches room between the top and da herb. I'm keeping it in a dark, cool/dry brick storage closet and airing it once a day. That's about all I remember about curing herb.
Advice please :peace:

Vitamin C, lots of rest, and make sure it stays hydrated.  That should cure your pots up in no time :smile:

Elaborate on how Vitamin C(Guess you mean sun?), Rest(Im guessing darkness) and hydration will help it cure? Also what should I use for hydrating da herb, tortillas?

1) Separate the nugs into individual groups arranged by size. About 20 groups should do. This may seem tedious but it's necessary for step 2.
2) Carefully place each individual group in a separate jar while singing the entire American Beauty album in the accent from the region it was grown. Only one song per group.

Dang, copy paste fail. Anyway continuing from before.

You'll have to repeat some songs. You might get away with doing two groups at once if you're willing to risk having to start over.
3) Place the jars with the lids off in a dry well ventilated area with light direct air flow. This allows the herb to rest.
4) Once the herb is dry to your preference carefully peal an orange from the first harvest of a leap year.
5) Place slivers of orange peal in each jar. This provides vitamin C (-; and maintains desirable moisture levels to keep it hydrated. Seal the jars.

I would always hang my herb up until the stems could snap and the herb was dry on the outside but not the inside. Then I would snip the buds off the stem and put them in jars. Then once or twice a day I would burp the jars by opening them up. Taking the weed out and seperating the buds (it will form a big clump since they are still moist in the center of the buds so they are very prone to mush together) and putting them back in the jar. Do this until your buds are squishy but there is no moisture in the center. At this point they should tear, not break, and they should not crumble. The buds will be sticky but only from the trichomes and not from moisture. And it should not smell like grass or plant matter if done this way and done correctly, just extremely stinky bud.

edit: also, when they are hanging (I think you may be past this step but just in case, you want fresh air flowing but not direct air on the buds. This will make the outsides of the buds extremely crispy and flakey/crumbly while the inside is still wet. They will retain a green smell and also you will get bad texture. A fan in the room will do just not blowing directly on them.

I agree about the air flow.

Oh, and one other idea. If you want to try something different you can try water curing the bud after it's dry.
-Take a nug and place it in a mason jar with distilled water and place the jar in the fridge for a couple days.
-Shake the jar gently a couple times each day.
-Squeeze the extra moisture out of the nug and allow it to air dry.

This changes the flavour of the smoke and yields a different experience in some circumstances.

Awesome, my stems are all ready snapable & the bud is dry on the outside and SLIGHTLY Moist on the inside so I guess I need to start separating the buds(which I didnt do) and reduce the amount of time I have been "burping" it for which was a few hours. Thx man,I mean my bud is good but there's nothing quite like cured bud. The stickyness,the taste, the unique smell and perfect consistency of dry but not crumbly just dense sticky nugs :fbsnugs:

I forgot to mention when you burp, first seperate the buds as they will probably have stuck togethre, then let the jars sit open for an hour before closing them.

Let it dry for about a week.
It has to dry out slowly so the bacteria can break down the Chlorophyll, it will make the smoke smoother and the effects stronger.

just grab some paper and spread the buds. make sure the room moisture isn't too high.

Idk ,I feel comfortable not Googling things of this matter, I know Shroomery is also monitored but I know Google is extremely monitored.
Also I like asking people I respect rather then a Google search.

I used to google things like how to make bombs and meth (seperately and out of curiosity of course) and the jump out boys never came to my house. But I did read this news article awhile back about how the Feds busted a couple's door down because they were googling back packs and pressure cookers for a hiking trip.

Yeah, I'm just saying it's possible not probable. Plus if I have further questions Google doesn't suffice.

There's also just so much information to sort through when you google search. I think it was cool to ask here. You get multiple inputs from people in your (online) community, and we get to feel like experts when we give you advice :lol:

Honestly the difference between amazing connoisseur grade bud and just good bud is the curing. You can grow amazing bud and have it turn out potent, but not pleasant so easily. My friends were always amazed how my bud felt, smelled, and tasted. It wasn't the most amazing bud grown in the area by any means, just cured very well with time and care. I also flushed my plants with molasses water for 5-7 days before I harvested so no nutes were left and the buds would burn to a soft white ash and not a black crispy mess.

edit: apparently I can't spell ash. I've been playing too much League of Legends.
