the trichs are meant to be insoluble in water, but all the other impurities in the weed are not. submerging in distilled water and changing water regularly, is meant to remove the impurities, just leaving behind the trichs. you then dry like normal.
just cure it in jars. or try it on a small amount and see if its worth it
good luck pal
Not just meant to be, they are insoluble in water.
Water curing is one of the easiest ways of curing but it's also a bit of a mess.
Since you have to control the basin in which you are curing and you have to resupply water therein, also you have the added risk of forgetting crucial steps, where as in jar curing you just have to remember to 'burp' the jars.
But the cure itself is very simple, since you won't have to do anything other than keep the environment in check.
The end product can be a bit weird, water cured bud does not resemble 'normal' bud.
But it'll get you high and the water cure does improve the quality of your harvested buds
