Harvesting, Drying and Curing: Difference between revisions

Buds are generally hung to dry in a warm dry location after trimming. The [[Temperature_and_Humidity|temperature and humidity]] of the drying space will affect how long the buds take to dry. In the process of drying biological processes continue inside of the buds and complex carbohydrates and chlorophyll is converted into simple carbohydrates such as glucose. Drying slowly is preferable as it ensures the maximum breakdown of sugars and also that the inside of the bud is as dry as the outside.
