First the bud is "dried", but can still contain some moisture within. By using the "cure", the THC slowly becomes psychoactive. Curing builds a more uniformily dried bud with a better burn and taste. Almost all the THC converts to the usable psychoactive cannabinoid over the alotted time, without the degradation from drying the bud rapidly with heat.

so if this is true then without curing there will be degrading of thc there for less potent. <this may be wrong got it from off this website

Hmmm im not so sure, the science of thc and all the other abbreviations that go with it is beyond me. But i can say that i have taken matured bud of a plant, stuck it in the oven to dry for 20 mins, smoked it and still got just as ripped as when it was fully cured.

At temperatures of 80 degrees or above THC begins to break down. What got you high after an oven drying would have been better had it been dried in a proper way.

I don't understand how THC breaks down at 80*.
When my plants are creating THC in an 85* environment!
Can you elaborate, please?

you dumb fucks where do you possiably think (crystals)(TRICHOMES)come from.haha i guess they just appear out of nowhere like majic. or just maybe thc travels up from the roots and forms crystals on the bud. not saying you cant cure any other way just saying if you want your bud at its fullest potential and highness. leave the roots on so the shit can drain out of the roots too

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water!

This thread is like a case of the &#8216;roids. It seems to go away but in the back of your mind you know it will not only come back but that it will come back with a vengeance.
