Paper bag cure

I do it after I hang them and they get pretty dry but not ready to jar .... Especially to slow down the dry if the humidity is too low like winter. The problem in doing this is mainly when you aren't gentle putting your buds in the bags or taking them out. I've never had any problems from it and it's a simple way to slow things down before the jars.

Yep paper bag after a proper hang dry gives great results!! I strip the fan leaves and do usually 7-10ish day hang on whole branches. When the stems snap and the very outside of the buds feels slightly crispy but the inside still feels soft i buck them off the stems and into the paper bag for another 4-7 days usually giving it a shake daily to keep them mixed and allowing the moisture to redistribute through the buds. Then when it’s ready to smoke it gets a final trim and goes in bags to sell or sometimes jars for storage but it usually doesn’t stay around that long.

Don’t worry about damage or about being gentle guys. I intentionally shake my buds around in the paper bag to stir them up. There is never a big pile of trichomes at the bottom. Are there some, sure but nothing worth being concerned about.

@Thundercat method works great. That's the way I do it as well. Hang dry it, put in paper bag to finish off drying, jar it. Ready to smoke. I don't have time for all the convoluted methods using hygrometers and burping jars five times a day. Waste of my time. My weed smells and tastes great. Everytime.
