I've been curing for about 3 weeks now and my buds r totaly dry. I can snap the buds in half, so the stems r dry insite the bud. Is the cure done or can i keep curing for a couple weeks? I hear the longer the better but i don't want my buds to get so dry that they just crumble in my hands. Should I stop or keep curing?
U are suppose to put them in a glass jar with lid when they are dry. Also open the jar daily. Watch for mold
Yep, curing is what you do in the jars AFTER drying. I usually hang my harvests for about 4-5 days, then put it in a paper sack for a couple more, then start the cure in mason jars. You'll have to open them daily for about 20 minutes or so the first two weeks to be sure you don't get mold. I have stash that has been curing for almost a year. It just seems to get better.
cool...I have been opening the jars for like 15 mins a day for the last 3 weeks. I didn't know after they r totaly dry you seal them up. I'll just let them be for a month or so.
Yes...once they are dry completely seal them and leave them be. It's like wine...the longer the cure the smoother the smoke.
Would sealing each bud with a vacuum bagger machine do the same thing? It would absolutely preserve them until they are cut open...
