curing helps make the bud smoke smooooother by slowly getting the water out of the bud heres a video that Jorge did: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMMa9_jtyMI

heres another video to check when to harvest: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_r0_2ohTjk


12/12 is if you want to go into flowering and i heard that you might want to turn the lights to 11/13 at the last week of flowering, but hey its your choice
ALSO get a real clean jar to cure in, if you find a jar laying around your house and you want to use get a pot of boiling water and boil the jar(s) for 30-60 minutes to clean out any funk and others. I cured in a jar that had a little bit of funk and i though it was alright, WRONG IDEA, i was like where was that great pot smell i was growing just a week ago. Good luck!

I wouldn't do that unless you have 2 or more plants and 2 different grow areas and try it on a plant to see the difference, but if you fell good about it try it out

cure for a month??? are you using air tight jars man....? you confuse the hell out of me. dont get me wrong, I am not saying you cant do what you do.....but I dry for 4 days, cure for two weeks. stem snaps and burns like a dream.


when you harvest your plant you can trim it or hang it upside down, it takes around 5-7 days of drying it then curing it will take another month or so, curing is placing bud into a jar and opening the jar a couple times a day for a minute or so to refresh the air inside the jar, sterilize the jar and i mean boil it in a pot of water for like a hour to clean out any funky smell, i had one with a weird smell and trust me it will not smell like the plant you were growing

Buy mason jars, man. They are cheap, and garunteed to work....thats why grandma always had good preservs for the winter. Myself personally, I dont give a sweet fuck about youtube. I believe what I see, first hand. Savvy?
