Wildlifer69--When your weed is in storage, it's still curing.

There is no set time when curing stops, with a correct curing/storage going on, it should keep getting better with time.

Happy Growing

haha i dont think that applies to stale weed. Gotta keep it fresh. Back when i was in high school i used to store my green in tinfoil out in the trailer in the yard. Whoo after a month the green was so stale it was unsmokable.

There is a lot of terminology associated with growing our favorite crop.
It can cause a lot of confusion.

This is how I understand it.

Harvest
Hang
Dry
Cure
Storage

Once the bud has hung until dry (stems snap) the herb can be placed in tupperware and sealed. During the time it's in the tupperware it's curing and the container must be opened and aired every day. Turn the buds gently so they continue to "cure/dry" without molding.
Once they've been in the tupperware for a couple of weeks or longer I move them to glass jars for storage.
When I put my buds in glass, I am sure they are 'dry' and will not mold. I even over-dry my bud a bit to assure myself there will be no mold.

Occassionally I'll open a jar and have to rehydrate the bud. I do this by putting some lettuce leaves in the container overnite. Longer than that and you are asking for a moldy mess....

There's my on the whole cure/storage phase of growing.

Peace- OD

There really is no right way to grow, you have to resonate with a style and learn what you can,
tweak it to your own style and raise the bar each grow... OD '07

If only that were completely true. It will cure indefinitely, but the THC will slowly degrade after the first year.

I personally love a year old cure. Maybe you should read some of the "masters" writings on the subject...Greg Green, Robert Cornell, Ed Rosenthal, Mel Thomas, Jason King, etc.
