hi all, just reading this and thought..

I don't want to distract from your very we'll put together post on "DRYING & CURING", but i do believe it is quite vague.

my drying and curing process is very similar, i will just explain it in a very short summary starting with the flush a week before harvest.

1. flush for 1 week.

2. cut down and give them a quick trim (i remove all fan leaves, and side sheer to get the basic shape of the nug)

3. hang dry for 4-6 days (wait until stems make a cracking noise, but does NOT completely snap in two)

4. brown paper bag them over night.

5. jar emm all up into your preferred storage jars

6. burp jars every 4 hours for the first 2 days

7. now just burp the jars every day or 2 for 2 months.

::::2 months later::: your jars smell INCREDIBLE
then you can bag them and stroe it for smoke? dont have to do anything?

The weed should be stored in an air tight container to retain it's water moisture for long term storage. It should be in a dark and cool place, to prevent degradation. You can store a hygrometer along with the weed so you can look through the jar and see the humidity level in the jar. There really is nothing else you can do. If it is properly cured, you can store it for several years, maybe longer.
