== Curing ==
Curing is an essential part of producing marijuana that is smooth to smoke. The quality of the bud can continue to improve for a duration of 2 months to a year or until the humidity of the bud reaches below 55%.
Once buds are dried they should be stored in an air-tight container preferably glass and "burped" (left open for 15 minutes) every day for a week or two, and then burped approximately once a week. The key objective of curing the buds is to slowly lower their moisture content for as long as possible. Inside of a jar, the moisture content of the buds can be measured by using a hygrometer. Curing should take place between 70-55% RH.
62% RH is the recommended humidity for long term storage
