Curing process for the best quality

Curing for best aroma and potency: store in airtight jars at 55–65% humidity — burp daily in the first week, then weekly for at least 2–8 weeks.

Curing after drying in airtight jars. 55-65% humidity in jars is optimal. First week: air daily for 15 minutes (burping). Then air weekly. Minimum 2 weeks, optimum 4-8 weeks. Boveda packs for stable humidity. Buds that are too moist = risk of mould, too dry = loss of terpenes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long should I store my cannabis flowers during the curing process?

The flowers should be stored for at least 2–4 weeks during the curing process to maximize their aroma and potency.

Why is humidity important during curing?

A relative humidity of 55–65% prevents mold growth and ensures that the terpenes and cannabinoids are optimally preserved.

During the first week, the jars should be aired out for a few minutes each day; after that, it is sufficient to open them once a week.
