Theory

Marijuana is a bunch of straws, heat the liquid in the bottom of the straw and you will create pressure. In most cases the plant will fail in the weakest area.. I believe the weakest area in most cases will be the root system itself, so in fact your steam will go no where.. Say though that some pressure got up the main stem and it held, in this case I do believe anything inside the stem will be pressured out to the weakest areas along the stem followed by a very abrupt failure of your entire plant system. You have destroyed ion exchange the plant can't grow now..

Here's the one problem, there's nothing usable to a stoner inside the stem of a Marijuana plant that I am aware of, why the hell do you want to force it all into your buds right before the plant dies?? I mean most of the rest of the community are trying to flush the nutrients out and you are power blasting them into areas of the bud they wouldn't normal be..

good observation. if that crap was supposed to be in the buds it would be in the buds. there's nothing flowing through the "veins" of the plant just before chop time that can be magically forced into the bud with some boiling water, and if there was, who the hell would want to smoke it? that being said if someone wanted to set up an experiment to see whether the steam made a difference in the drying or cure i would at least take a peek. my money would be on mold issues.

hope ya get the idea, like the post before mine its a weed?? hence the nicname. shock it, play with it ,sleep with it, its only as good as the strain you grow. but if it helps you sleep at night there a book from the 70's says put a orange peel in with it as its curing. gonna mold but they say blue mold good for ya, ok thats bs no mold good for you period. but again if it helps you sleep at night. try pissing on it, spitting on it, get the idea????

personally nobody actually knows.... all your answers to my thread are theories and nothing to back it up with but without a proper laboratory with scientific anwers nobody knows .... I JUST HEARD OFF SOMEONE... plus you are supposed to use normal water and flush out the nutrients 2 weeks before harvest so the roots could act as couriers with some value in the roots themselves and could be shocked up the stem and into the buds or may be the resin glands who knows ITS JUST A THEORY.....

Fox News - Deadly Marijuana 200 times stronger than normal Marijuana

I hear that if you fly a kite upside down on a water slide made of jello you'll have a higher sperm count, I mean produce 261% more cookie crips. I mean buds.

some old hippy said he puts a bag over the plant till it thinks it is dying then puts lemon juice or lemonade and it sucks up all the juice into the buds.

Id not even begin to know what he was talking about but he said he used beer, soda, grape cool aid...

If these kinds of "special" cures were really that good, everyone would be doing it as a matter of course. I'm 60, by the way, and I started growing in 1985. I've done the root-boil, the water cure, the sun-cure, and many other things that are too foolish to name. The tried-and-true methods- the common advice on the forums- have endured because they work; you should handle the majority of your crop that way. If you want to try some esoteric methods just use enough weed to give it a fair shot, then you can compare.
Remember, when you chop the plant all the resin is in the trichomes. You will not get more resin to "go" to the trichs because the resin doesn't exist somewhere else. What you do after harvest is all about flavor and smoothness in the finished product.
