... I asked do you think that the time you have it in bag opening and closing and opening is over a months period? and all 6 said that they store their buds in jars ( yea mason jars) and sold as it comes, 1 did say though that he never has any 2 weeks after harvest so thats barely curing. but the others might have been curing their buds good and for atleast a month. Yet ive had bud from all of them, and just about everytime I get the best of kush.
If that's the case - ie. the ending product seeing little differentiation on the bases of quality - then none of the growers you mention actually cure. Please understand what I'm saying. Just because the bud goes into a jar, is burped and stored for XX days, it doesn't mean the product is curing. It just means that it sits in a jar. The difference between cured, and I mean cured, product and identical bud sitting in a jar is night and day. It's unmistakable.

As I said in a post above, it's impossible to make sweeping generalizations. In my area, a pound can sell for ~$1200 to ~$5000. I don't grow for fun and I'm fairly well-known and recognized for curing. Guess what my product goes for? ;)

Yup its tall as a mofo man, I only vegged for about 5 weeks maybee 6 but doubtful. ( dont have my calendar infront of me) and they are about 3 1/2 feet to 4 1/2 feet ive had to make two levels of trellising just to keep them up right. But damn man, they have the best smell ever so sweet, and when i touch them i look at my hands afterwards and there is literally a glistening matter on my hands becuase of how sticky they are. best strain ive grown so far by far.

she is less then a full week from being chopped. Well maybe a few days longer but schedule chop down day is the 31st. Maybe pushed to the 5th of Jan but probably not much more.

Dont be so defensive just because you cure your buds, everyone has a different opinion on curing. Which doesnt make any one person right about it. And trust me just because they dont cure much doesnt mean its not damn good, Ive personally cured for more than 3 months once, I thought i was wrong for doing it later finding out it was the best bud i ever smoked either way my point is from my 5 month cure to their idk maybe 2 month cure its not the biggest difference imo. But again everything on the matter is opinion based i think.

Unless someone can come up with scientific proof that they have done studies on it thats what im sticking with. Do what you want cuz no matter what its good.

Wait, what? You actually expect to debate whether curing makes a difference or not? Seriously?

Please forgive me if this is my last post in this thread.

Lmfao when did I say that ?

I said I personally dont see a difference in bud that is cured 2 months or bud that is cured 5 months.

Dont be so sassy, cant stand the heat get out the mofo kitchen hoe.
( meaning dont say something and just leave, back up what you said, or youll just look like a fool saying things out your arsh.)
