I’m a big believer in curing weed after drying (I know that many don’t cure) but I had an interesting experience that has prompted me to ask this question.
I had cut and dried a plant. When sufficiently dry, I put the buds into jars and proceeded cure in the standard manner.
Around 10 days after the chop, I smelt a pungent smell coming from my drying area, I had inadvertently left a stem in there.
I smoked some with a veteran smoker friend and his comment after a few draws was “This shit is dangerous”.
When I later went on to sample some of the cured product although a fine smoke, it didn’t have the raw bite of the uncured product.
I think in future I will be doing some experiments, curing a portion of a plant and just drying another portion of the same plant.
Anyone with similar/dissimilar experience/observations, feel free to share/ask.
This event has aroused my curiosity.
