A FEW QUESTIONS

[Guest]

Hi Oz Stoners,What is best to use when curing your buds Glass/Plastic?Is plastic safe to use when curing/storing buds?I know when in dark period you need to leave the outlet on but what about using a small fan too?When drying should i keep outlet on and use a small fan?Cold and rainy here will buds still dry in 10 Days-14 Days or will i need to add heat?Will remaining chems be leached out after the curing as could only flush 5 good times over 5 days Thanks

Hi Big Smoker, I'm in a cold area also. I hang them up for about a week - 10 days in a dark room with a heater on low, and a pedestal fan on low. Once they're dry enough that the stem snaps, I'll put the buds into glass masonary jars, or something similar. Glass jars with an airtight seal and clip lid are great. You can use plastic, I have when I've been slack :: But glass is better. You can cure them for however long you like, the longer you leave them, the better they'll smoke and taste!!

If you haven't been able to flush very well, try to cure it for at least 4 weeks.......I've known growers that don't flush, just cure. Not my personal preferance, I flush for a good week before harvest.
