I have found that the best cure is to hang upside down till the stem snaps. {Fan should be blowing entire time but not directly blasting them or they WILL dry to fast and be all harsh and nasty} Temps should be about 60 with humidiy at 50%. Cut buds off stems and put the loosely in sealed glass jars. Keep them in a very dark cool space {60} and burp them every 2-4 hours. You will be able to tell if you need to burp it more or less. This lets the moisture out that is left and circulates the air. When you do this the first time you will have a period the first day {when you sleep} that you can't burp. If they are really moist the next day I put them in a paper bag for about 24 hours in that dark space; then back to the glass jars and burp on a regular basis for up to 2 weeks...the cure is where it's all at. This is where the THC becomes a huge factor and taste...I know some guys who cure the best weed I have ever seen for 2 months!
Manicure before you cut your buds. I leave mine in the dark for 48 hours before I harvest right after manicuring and then I harvest AS SOON as I turn on the lights...photosynthesis will start and you want to get the buds off!
I flush 10 days prior with straight ph'd water. {Im using hydro} I will flush when mosty of the tri's are milky. Keep in mind that if you wait to harvest till they are all amber you have lost half the battle and missed your peak. By the time you flush you should only see a trace of amber tri's...this will give them time to develop and hit full potential when you harvest and start your cure...
The best bud can't be rushed...no matter how you grow it.
That's my opinion for what it's worth...
