Yea I don’t think I can wait a month lol But I will try to cure as long as I can, I read the recommended minimum is 2 weeks up to as long as 6 months or maybe even more but we’ll see what happens

Assuming it is grown well, it really is strain dependent. Some are ready as soon as they dry, but ime most are best with at least 10 days of curing. So 2 to 3 weeks minimum usually including drying time. The ride can be a bit wild and uneven before curing, and some of us love that weird wild buzz and others dont. If you like Sativa buzzes the early buzzes are awesome, if you are prone to anxiety though I reco waiting. I believe in exploring that odd place Somerimes you can get a very racy out or control buzz...

I’ve only done one grow/cure so far but I noticed a big difference after two weeks in the jar.

Before that it was still a little harsh. The smell also seems to change a lot the first month or so but I’m into week five in jars and it seems to be staying the same now.

Thank you for sharing, I’ve been sampling and man, I think for the first time in life I truly understand the difference between sativa and indica and how they hit. Definitely getting whole body high from these, and major munchies, followed by sleep :sleep:

I’m noticing that too, had a slight soily taste a few days after being put in jars, now it’s really faint. And I was coughing a lot more the first day, can tell a difference in smoothness and flavor the farther along it gets

I did want to ask you guys though, my anniversary is this upcoming Wednesday. I’ve been burping for this first week, but wanted to know what I should do this 2nd week since I won’t be here. Will they be okay if I don’t burp this upcoming week?

Put a hygrometer in there and if the humidity stays between 58 and 62 you don't need to burp

IMHO it shouldn't be in jars yet if you can't leave it in there for a week without worrying about mold, especially after a whole week of "burping".

Thank you guys for that, the first day they went in jars the mini hygrometers were at about 56-57 rh, today they’re all in 58-62 range so I’ll go ahead and leave them as they are, I appreciate you all

Not really worried about the mold because the hygrometer numbers are looking good, just wanted to keep bringing that aroma out and didn’t know if I needed to continue with burping for first 2 weeks.

Everything I’ve grown up to this point I would put boveda packs in right away but this time I waited to see what rh would be after trim. They seemed like they could come up some so I threw in a boveda pack and they’re just about all on target now. The stuff I used to grow wouldn’t smell pleasant after trying to cure so I just want to make sure I do everything right with this run.
