How to dry marijuana buds for the best HIGH?

Keep in a dry, dark and suitable cold area of your house. Inside the 1st day, you will find these buds are no more dry or crunchy. The inside moisture rehydrates the exterior. This is a very import step to know how to dry marijuana buds.

Note: If you do, it means that these buds need more drying.

At the 4th week, you will find its quality as well as cure improvements.

However, this depends from strain to strain. Some happen within 3 weeks while some take up 6 months or so. Hence before capping off, along with these steps, choosing the cannabis strain is also a matter of consideration that you need to devote.
