Does drying and curing change the trichome shape?

Could somebody post a pic of some dried and cured flower you consider really good? Just so I know what it is supposed to look like.

Found this in my search:) Make sure you keep those plants upside down..
"First thing first, all cannabis plants are dried and cured after being picked. The most common method is hanging the branches upside down, allowing all the THC to run down the buds and collect at the tips, leaving nothing for waste "

I've read and heard that is a myth, the part about the THC moving down to the tips when hung. Its more to do with a slower dry resulting in a better cure and convenience. Plenty of people that grow dank flowers dry and cure in paper bags.. :weed:

Ugh, better my man... i let them dry out a bit last weekend, but they recovered great immediately. Also dealing with i believe Mag & P (and or K?) deficiency, Inot too bad, progressive last twoish weeks, think looking better after nutes correction though. How are your girls doing?

Yeah, I was trying to find some before and after cure pics that were taken with a microscope, just to see the difference. I just was hoping for some pics so I could see what it looked like. I bought some dispensary weed and and was just curios why it looked like it did. I'll post a pic of it, trying to learn and I don't want to mess up my dry and cure.


I thought that part in the article was funny, especially after all the coco fell out of my pot when I tried to turn my plant upside down so the thc wouldn't run out.... ( this is the joking section of the post )
