Yeah I don't see why there is any reason to argue on how to cure...sure "experts" might say one way but jimi is right when he said that there is more than one way to skin a cat. Instead of arguing its nice to let people know the different ways that people do it BrickTop, in case people wanted to try and figure out their own way to do things, but that warning of budrot is appreciated.

i did the jar cure thing last year 30 days worth,but it was in them about 90 more til i was finished smokin it but am just goin back to the way ive always done it, because it a: took to long (im done in 21/2-31/2 weeks tops dpending on the bud size) b: had no appreciable difference in smoke or smell to the way i already did it if anything the jar cured was the weaker of the 2 c: i end up losing trichs to the jar and my fingers(i hate that) d: my way is way easier and no risk of mold or budrot no matter what you do,totally idiot proof

I guess I spend too much time in the real world, not much of a "lvl 2 plant slayer" or whatever you guys are. and why would I do something that is illegal and tell a bunch of strangers, you are a true fool. I bet the MAN has you on his list

So many people have their way but their way is almost always inferior to the right way.

If someone new comes along it is best for them to learn the right way or the best way and then if they want to adapt and alter and experiment that is their business.

If they know the best way to begin with they know the basics. It they learn the right way or the best way first they will then know if they try something else and have problems or less than satisfactory results why things turned out that way, they will know what was done different than the best way.

After roughly 37 years of doing this I am not going to tell someone new or still inexperienced to do anything that I have devised for myself but will instead tell them the proven best way and if later they want to change something for some reason they will have the basic knowledge to know what can be changed or not changed and to what degree and if their experiment fails they will know why.

Sites like this are very useful for information but they can also be dangerous in that there is such a tremendous amount of inaccurate and terrible information passed from person to person under the guise of being the right or best way to do it.

What is so horribly wrong about trying to help people the very most/best that you can? Isn’t that better than telling them things that are not the best?

After almost four decades of doing this there is little I have not tried and what I have not tried I have seen friends try so there is nothing new under the sun for me and when I think back at all the trial and error of the past I would sure have liked it if there had been sites like this back then and people handing out the best possible information. I would have listened to them and done what they had said.

If someone does not wish to follow expert advice, and I do not mean my advice and instead the advice of experts that I follow and share with others, that is their business but who would think it wise to ignore expert advice and instead follow the advice of some amateur who likes to talk like they are Greenman or Jorge Fucking Cervantes even though they themselves never learned the best way to do things in the first place and if they did they do not have the common sense to first teach the best way and only then say how they then altered it to fit their system/needs?

Right … I don’t know what I am talking about. I only have 37 years of experience under my belt, are you even 37 years old .. well that doesn’t really matter. What I share with others is proven information, ways of doing things that professional/expert growers do and that I emulate. I do not say this is what I thought up or what I discovered for myself. It is known to be the best and that is why I share it. If you do not like it that is fine, don’t do it, but do not think you are doing anyone a service by steering them in the wrong direction by telling them that what experts/professionals do is not the way to do things.



and i write like this cuz its faster and im not tryin to make it perfect..

You write the way you do due to a lesser education. If you had a higher education it would be ingrained in you to use the English language and to use full and proper words. Writing the way you do would be like fingernails on a chalkboard to you and you would not do it. The way people write tells the world a tremendous amount about them and at times if is anything but flattering.




anyways im telling u what i do and i dont get any mold on my shit..

All I can say is that if you actually get away with what you do you are tremendously lucky because I do not know anyone who has been as lucky as you and got away with doing things improperly and did not pay heavily for it.

i dont give a damn what u think i came on here saying what i do i coulda just as easily took ur route and posted some shit from a website but i wanted people to understand that i dry less and cure more and it works for me if u dont like what i say then dont even try it i dont care dude im telling u what i do not telling u to do it

Had you posted information from a website that was very good information you would have done far more of a service to those who might be looking to you for help instead of telling them the things you have that are recipes for disaster. They will likely not be as lucky as you and when their crop is ruined due to they’re following your personal opinions will you replace it for them?

The information I share with people will not later put me in a position where I have to say, well it works for me so I do not know why it did not work for you, sorry about your crop.

I have to agree with Bricktop with regards to this subject.

I can't even bring myself to read a post if it is full of 'urs', 'u', '4', and all the other beastly 'text-speak' contractions.

Iam not for a moment suggesting that everyone should use perfect spelling and grammar, but I think posting in 'text-speak' is rude.

Why, I always think, if you cannot be bothered to write decently should you expect that I would be bothered to translate it.

But Iam a fussy, English person.

Very well said Brick Top, I could not agree more with all of your advice. Thank you

You can lead a horse to water but can't force it to drink. Reading through all this catty bickering was a joke! I do agree with Brick Top's advice. My hay smell from my first crops did leave after weeks of curing. The color deepened from fresh cut green to a kind of golden hue (the church). When grinding cured nugs, it gave off the best, pungent kind bud weed smell that convinced me that curing is a must! A proper dry does decrease the chance of mold as already argued. Cheers!

yeah so my dumb ass left for 3 and a half days and had my 2 mason jars without being opened. Got alittle of white mold started in one jar. Pulled both jars and let them sit out under a fan all night. Still smell like green grass that was cut. Didnt no if i could still smoke the bud with out the mold killing my ass or should i toss it? Any input will help.

toss it, no point in smoking moldy weed, and this whole dispute was a joke, everyone likes to show how big their ego is and thinks they know everything, its pointless and a waste of time for people who want real information about drying and curing, they don't want to read about two hens bickering about who's right or who's wrong get over it smoke a bowl and shut the hell up.

Best luck next grow JDshocker.

I'm having a lot of trouble with weather or not I will be able to find a good spot to dry my buds, its getting colder out now and I don't think the loft in my shed will be suffecient, can anyone help with ideas of good dry spots, does it have to be hot for them to dry properly? Thanks for your help.

bricktop you showing how truly small time you are,you claim to be experienced but you store your weed in jars?lol, you must grow pissy little plants,or very few plants if you store the shit in jars,i mean how many jars you got?
Click to expand...
Some truth in that - I started with mason jars, years ago, but when I got a yield of 72 ounces, from my small grow area, just couldn´t store them without incurring the wrath of SWMBO. Switched to ziploc bags.

that is completely normal man.I freaked out the first time too all you need to do is cure it.what I do is let it dry for about 4 or 5 days then I put it in glass jars but don't pack it in too tight give it some space for a little air.then I open and close the jar off and on for the next week or so.be careful if you leave the lid on too long at first because it could get moldy if there is too much moister.

Yeah I tried drying for a day less than usual and the whole jar turned brown, lost smell and taste. "early stages of rott"......... Let the buds get crispy on the outside, toss into a mason jar about 1/2 full. Rotate the jar every time you get a chance and let the air out a few times a day. Your smell will start coming back in days.
