I’ve never done this, but I’m curious. You collect the buds and you simply let them dry? What’s the process?
The idea is to get a slow controlled cure and not a quick dry.
I’m in an arid climate and I generally cut individual branches, let those dry, then harvest the buds, but some of my friends just hang the entire plant up to dry. If you’re in a humid climate then you might look at cutting it down to individual buds.
Lots of good info at https://www.growweedeasy.com/drying-curing and elsewhere :)
Oh cool! Thanks for the info :)
@leanfemurs nailed it. Link has most covered too.
I’m actually looking at doing a Lotus Cure next grow, it’s where you dry/cure with a fridge instead of hanging it, but it requires a wet trim as well.
But I cut it into manageable sections, and trim the fan leafs off and hang to dry. Very dry here, so I leave as much plant material as possible, and even a humidifier to keep the rh up.
When it’s dry, I cut it apart more and put it in grove bags.
Lotus cure works really well, but if you use cardboard you can get a cardboard-y taste that fades over time. I went back to traditional dry/cure, but that just because I wanted to use the fridge as a fridge again and it’s pretty easy for me to keep a good temp/humidity where I’m at
I thought this was some kind of undersea plant at first
