Jim, its about quality not quantity when you want Good High grade smoke and High grade highs lol.

Isn't your harvest/curing totally dependent on your climate and curing conditions???

So one technique can work fine for one...but may not work as well as the other in your specific climate / condition..... just saying cause you both have really good points.

I think the bottom line is that drying AND curing is just about managing the process of dehydration no matter where you are located. If you look at it from that perspective you can taylor any of the different ways people use to your own needs. The trick if there is one is trying to decide when to make the next step in the process....

age dont mean nothing get a job growing or working at a cannabis club. i did thats how i know what i know.

LOL the VAST majority of the budtenders dont know much about the buds, let alone how to grow it right. most places hire ditsy girls that just look good

I'm going to buzz in and give my two cents:

Focused on the art of growing and less on curing, I too have ran into the problem of bad flavor from drying and curing and can say that curing the same way on different strains has generated different results. My conclusion is that some weed just doesn't taste good no matter what you do, even if potency is present.

I agree.

this is funny as hell.. ya wen i was like 13 an grew my first female plant. i just cut it down.. dried it for 10 days and smoked it .. and it was horrible.. and never grew till this year.. this year i grew and followed all the info i found online.. and my buds turned out great.. dried for 7-10 days.. then in jars with cap off for 1-2 days.. then jar cap on forr the day.. and opened 1 time a day for 15 mins.. take the nugs out put on a screen let sit for 15 mins. put back in jar close jar.. repeat till u get the smell and potency ur looking for.. gets better with age like wine.

dude..... how have you been on the RUI system for so long and not have read about curing..... there is SOOOOOOOO much information on this site that you should have definetly noticed people always asking about curing or their weed smelling like grass. Its pretty natural, usually only the skunks still decently smell after trimming. Its the chloraphyl escaping the plant as it drys which is the green chemical in plants that has that grass clipping smell. Good luck chief and happy smoking.
