Decarbing and curing are 2 separate things completely.
You have to have a decarb somewhere in your edible process or you would get zero effect.
As far as this testing goes, there is no significant difference in cannabinoids fresh, freeze dried, air dryed, and cured for a month or 6 months if taken from the same bud. Curing will naturally decarb as the carboxyl group decays over months, but not even close to what you would consider decarbed after 2 years. Think of it this way if you found an old bud from 5 years ago and ate it raw, would you get high?
no i know all that. The baking muffins in the oven completes the decarb.
im suggesting the flowers have something from time that is lost in the early decarb process. @Kanzeon made it more clear about the terpenes though.
