Curing

Sorry if this is a dumb question but I see people online or ig curing there weed but also smoking it so did they wait like a week or so or did they just take it right after trimming ?

They usually smoke it while it's curing, using burping as an opportunity to grab a bud

Ahhhh okay cause I thought you had to cure it to smoke it

should Be very smokable before entering the cure. If your jarring flower too soon with high enough moisture, that makes it un able to burn,
You may end up growing mold.

You can smoke it once it dries, but it will be smoother after the cure.

There are considerably more terpenes immediately after the dry vs after a month in a jar, removal of the bulk of water in the first week then 2 weeks tapering down to water stability is all that's needed, dry for 2-3 weeks at 16'c and around 60%rh and you'll be hard pressed to get it any better with a traditional jar and burp curing technique

The chlorophyll will break down and that's why it tastes alot better once you've dried and cured it.
