i've seen much info about curing and drying. last time i grew all i did was a slow dry. finding the best way for me to get everything to dry to the right degree. once i was able to dial it in i was able to have all parts of the buds at an equal dryness. when i had achieved that i produced buds that tasted like mauie wowee, pineapple and some that were very mild to taste. very smooth smoke from all. never did what many call curing.
from my recollection was usually 14 or so days for completion. had one strain that was so potent i use to tell anyone i gave it to to only take a small hit or two and wait 10 minutes to smoke any more as even though it would slam you with a hit or two it also had an incredible creeper that would kick in after a couple minutes in addition to the initial high. was stunning. had a friend who was a party animal, always happy. he would do any substance to excess and i never saw him act high, would be a little happier and laughed a little more but nothing that would tip anyone off that didn't actually know him.
one day i smoked half a pin joint with him of that strain. within 5 minutes he sat on my couch and said he was too high to drive. this was something i had never seen him do no matter what substances he took.
