Very helpfull. Ill do exactly the same as you, The curing on the other hand is what i ont unerstand, You say you leave it overnight and repeat the process untill the buds are the way you desire. But what is the point in curing for long periods of
time? Im personally one of those stressy stoners who cant wait 30secs for a hot dog out of the microwave so im wonering
if i cure for about 2-3 days will it all be good to smoke? Thanks for any help or insight you can give me. Im growing blue cheese an its in 3rd week of flowering :) Just thought i put that in there.

you can smoke it as soon as it's dry. curing adds smoothness and brings out the smells and flavors. it's not something you have to do though.

you are supposed to close the jars.
 
i use giant turkey bags to do the same method.. call it burping the bags. same thing. tried jars.. bag was easier for me. it all goes so fast that i get more done in the bags
