hey guys, i jus joined hipforums, im a teen grower, imma start growing in nearby woods, and wondering what the fastest way to dry this summer.. thanks guys
yea.. i think so, because my friend said one of the methods was putting it under hotlights for 24 hours.
Remove leaves,hang for 2-5 days(till dry on the surface),then into brown bags for 2-4 days and then into a sealed container.Open the jars daily to refresh air daily and watch for mold.
First of all, if you want buds, you'll have to wait until the fall (Oct.); that's when buds are full and ripe. The faster you dry the buds the lousier they'll taste and burn. The goal is to slow dry them. The best way to do this is place the fresh, manicured buds into paper bags, crimp the top and gently comb the buds with your hands once a day until the're almost but not quite dry enough to smoke. That's when a min. 2-week cure begins. A slow dry and cure makes the pot smoke cooler, sweeter, taste better and burn slow and steady. Plus it increases potency by up to 30%. Most growers I know, if they're out of weed, put a few buds aside like on a table top where they will dry in a day or two, so they can have something to smoke while the rest of their harvest is getting drying and curing.
i have no idea what you guys are talkikng about.. anyone have a FULL guide to growing marijuana and drying, everything else i need to know for noobs like me ? Thanks
there is no fast way to dry marijuana without detrimental effects to the taste and potency.I explained it once already.
OK I'm jumping in on this a tad late but I just want to clarify your reply vis-a-vis cure time. The basic drying & bagging is a no brainer. It's the cure duration that has me wondering. I realize the maximum time-in-the-jar would be a personal choice. But is there a baseline minimum? Say 2 weeks or so? I'm getting close to harvest and don't want to waste the grow.
Once buds are in jars and you have got beyond the first week of opening the jars daily as to avoid any mold developement they are ready to smoke.Any cure time from then on up to 30-60 days will improve taste,and also allow non psycho-active alkloids to become psycho-active thus improving potency.Depending on strain after the sealed period of 30-60 days there will not be room for more inprovement but simply sustaining what you have cured.
Thanks much. That's what I was looking for. I've started taking samples and hope to have a good cure. I think that's what blew my first try. Too eager!
I am confused as to why my name is at the bottom of that above post haha I've had successful grows...so do you mean you're not taking offense to my statement, or I shouldn't take offense? Either way...I reply the same, "Cool."
No No No I Thaught What You Said On The Previous Page Was Great Thats What I Was Thinking That Shit Was Funny As Hell. I Should Of Been More Clear(my Bad Sorry) ___________________________ Overgrow The Goverment
