Water Curing

[vodkamartiny12]

Water curing: can it be done when non organic nutes are used? has anyone done this procedure befor? does it effect potency of herb?

[Hennessy1414]

oh yes yes yes


i love it! if you have a small batch of buds you want to play around with or your shit tastes real gross..water cure....makes the hits have more THC% and smoother....you also need a food dehydrator

good luck and try it on some of your home gro!

the only reason it affects potency is because it loses some weight, but the same amount of glands are left on the plant matter(if youre careful) so same THC, less weight=more potency

you can water cure any buds

it affects the taste in a negative way, it loses some taste, but lots of times people do it because they know the herb wont taste very well

what the hell?

I've done it to about a 1/4 oz out of a harvest, just to try it

I used two small tupperware containers, one with holes cut all in the bottom, so I didnt disturb the herb as much as possible in the water

Also don't use tap water

Basically you let the herb sit in water for a week, changing the water ever so carefully each day. Once the 7 days have passed you remove the herb gently and dry it by normal means, perhaps with a little more air circulation

The idea is to leech any nutrients+chlorophylls out of the herb when you have done a less than sufficient flush cycle

I've heard of people doing it to mexi-brick schwag aswell

Hmm, interesting. Learn something every day.

you get a nug that tastes like "air" smoke. really diluted smkoe but you get fat creamy rips...a bit of a let down that the taste is taken away but....its worth it to try.

also please use a food dehydrator...shits fun to try


pleas back up why you wouldnt use tap water? lets try not to make this cost more

[linsen]

because tap water will leave all sorts of deposits, are you crazy?

just get some distilled water at the store for oh jeez 67 cents

lets try to use common sense instead of bitching about money

[linsen]

if you are trying to LEACH NUTRIENTS AND OTHER THINGS FROM THE PLANT, WHY ADD MORE WITH TAPWATER
