cob after 3 days post sweating curing

Ever seen a grown man cry? I still can't believe what I have just done. I deserve to be shot at dawn. In a nutshell:- I started my grow of nine plants last june. After many mistakes I at least managed to get 14 Litre sized jars full of lovely dried and cured buds (4 were trimmings...

Hi there all. I don't know if there is anything I can do but I have made a monumental srew-up after just harvesting my buds (just one plant). I had just cut down and trimmed my first ever autoflowerer and was just finishing trimming when I had to drop everything and attend another family...

Hi all. I've just read about 'drying' your harvest underwaterfor 7 days minimum to flush out the crap and then quick dry after the 7 days. Has anyone tried this and does it work? It would suit me down to the ground because I don't really have anywhere to hang my plants but I do have a...

So I had to cut drying short (3 days) due to a family visit. I knew the bud was a bit wet, figured I'd be looking at a slower cure 30-60 days (versus my usual 7-14) so I went ahead and threw them into mason jars. After about 10 days of burping the jars twice a day for about 15-30 minutes I had...

After my first harvest, my wife nearly lost it when she came home and the house wreaked of freshly harvested bud. I moved it to dry in a dehumidified crawl space, which helped minimize the smell (originally drying in our laundry room), but it was still pretty stinky. Before I start my next...

Hey guys! Just harvested 1/4 of my Northern Lights Autoflower plants. For some reason it matured a few weeks sooner than the others. So for my harvest, i trimmed the buds off of the stalk and i manicured them right away. Now, i know that for drying the bud I should keep it in a dark room...

ok so i hung dry trimmed buds for 5 days at 60-70 degrees , 45-70 humidity in a cardboard dry box .. buds felt dry and crispy on the outside thou the stems did not snap .. last grow i over dried and could not get a decent cure waiting to stems to snap so i did not go that far ... i put them in...

Hi, I want to try making a wrapper leaf from large fan leaves like is done with tobacco leaves for cigars. I understand that the fan leaves are not ideal for this from a shape perspective, but I also had to cut down a male plant today. I intend to document my journey here and I hope this...

Hey guys, I have a question about curing. I grew two plants and staggered the harvest by only cutting off a bit at a time and allowing the rest to mature a bit more. Having done that, I became confused as to how long each batch dried. I'm positive that each batch had roughly 5-6 days to dry. Now...

Hey guys just joined the site and had a few questions. Any input is appreciated. So I cut down six plants three days ago and hung the whole plants in my basement. 3 gal pots and about 3-4 feet tall. After I hung them I picked off all the fan leaves. At first my basement was sitting at 59...

I am growing for the purpose of making CCO to treat my husband's cancer and am wondering about curing the product. I understand the need for a slow, controlled cure to enhance flavor and smoothness, but what if you plan on using it for oil? Could I just let it dry out? I am thinking 85 F...

Hi Everyone, new to the forum. I have been reading tons of stuff but found no info on either of these topics; (should i do two threads? ) I am growing 1 quarter pounder ,1 blue cheese and 2 northern lights autos. 1st grow as it is now legal in MA. yahoo! using a combination of leds...

Hello Everyone, I Have a question about curing for the more experienced growers out there. I just recently switched over to hang drying the whole plant vs sectional using " 11 steps to perfect Humboldt hang dry". My question is regarding when to take down whole plants and jar them based off...

i wonder if there is any way i could store some dried buds for like 2 weeks and then cure them cause i have to go away for a while

hey you guys. so i got a problem with the curing process. my plants are ready for harvest but i will have to go away for a while so i will only have time to dry them. Unfortunately i cant take the buds with me, so i gotta find a way to cure them from distance. To telecure them or to autocure...

The bud has been curing for 2 weeks, I was opening the jars twice a day for awhile, then once a day until the RH got to 65% or lower. It's at 62%, am I good to leave it alone now and just let it do its thing? Should I still be opening them?

So I have all my different strains at different drying/curing points in Ball Wide Mouth Quart and Pint size caning jars. Some have been curing from anywhere from 2 weeks to 5 weeks. I just bought a foodsaver vacuum sealer, and I want to know at what point can I start vacuum sealing the jars, so...

So, I have two plants. One is for experimental purposes of doing whatever I felt like doing to it as a newbie. The other, I followed advice from the forums and actually took the time to look up terms. The experiment is at the drying stage and turning brown. I put indoors, by my window for...
