How often do I burp weed while curing?
    #22345644 - 10/07/15 02:03 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

Sorry to ask such a dumb question but I just want to make sure I'm listening to the right people when there are conflicting answers out there.

So I've had the weed in a jar for over a week now and just burped it for the first time. Now that I actually googled how often I'm supposed to do this, most people say every day or even a few times a day? :wtf:

I thought the whole point was to let it stew in its stink? Do people open the jars this often to prevent mold?

The weed in question is soft to the touch. A littllle bit more moist feeling than I expected, but nothing excessive.

So yeah, how often do y'all recommend burping or does it matter that much?

Twice a week and leave the jar open for 5 min and mix up the bud. More likely to get mold on a plnt while it is still growing. The coast sometimes fucks up my buds witb rot.

this makes sense to me. At least the leaving it open/mixing it up part. Otherwise you'd think the stuff on bottom would stay more wet.

My state is quite humid so yeah I should probably be on my guard.

its called curing. pretty much all weed gets cured this way or a similar way I think

you're letting it stew in its own stink so that it tastes better.

I have a jar of White Russian that has been mellowing on my shelf since 2010.  That stuff is just gonna be SO smooth.

Hang to dry, then when it hits jars burp once a day until the stems could snap. then seal that shit up and let it age.

First you harvest the plant. Then take off all the big fan leafs. Then hang upside down. After 3-5 days it should be dry. Then put a tray beneath the busa you are trimming to save the sugar leafs. The sugar leafs are great to make bho.

The 3-5 day range can change depending on temperature, relative humidity and how you chop the plant up.  Hanging the whole plant will take longer than individual branches.  Also depends on how dense the nugs are.  Keep in mind that the plant doesn't immediately die when you chop it up, there are a lot of processes still going on while it's drying/dying.  You want them to feel dry to the touch before jarring, there is still a lot of internal moisture that needs to be wicked out and distributed evenly through the bud.  If after a day in the jar, they feel soft and moist, take them back out and let them dry in a cardboard box layered with news paper for another day or two.  After a few harvests you'll start to get the hang of it.

There is a fine line between too wet and too dry.  But as has been said, you will soon get the knack.

stick them in the jar when the leaves are dry and crunchy, but the stems are still pliable and able to be spun around without breaking, b/c thats what will be rehydrating your buds (not to early, not too late, putting in too early will cause mold and bad smelling bud), burp your jar every 12 hours, and don't just burp them, take it fully out of the jar and sit around, then put them back in the jar (repeat process in 12 hrs), until the bud smells good and not like plant material.

I recommend a non wax coated brown paper bag over a cardboard box.
And never news paper, no one wants ink on their buds.

yeah. if you've ever handled a lot of newspapers or magazines you know your fingers quickly get covered in black stuff.

Difference between handling newspaper and just laying buds on it.  They should also be mostly dry by that point any way and most newspapers are printed with soy based inks.  :2cents:
