I originally posted this in outdoor as it applies primarily to outdoor weed, but it can apply to indoor.
Like always, this years grow resulted in a number of jars of weed that had good potency but were awful to smoke. The joint is greasy, your teeth and lips and fingers have brown stuff and you choke and wheeze your way through that heavy indica. A friend gave me the cure and i want to share it.
After telling him about the weed, he told me he could fix it. He took a jar of cured weed (90days or so) , dumped it into a bowl and filled the bowl with water. I thought he was nuts. He told me to let the weed soak for 4 hours, then gently rinse it and redry. He told me to save the soak water.
After 4 hours of soaking, the water was a nasty piss/muddy brown and the need to rinse was obvious. I put the soak water in a jar and redried the weed.
The results were astounding. The nasty shit that went in the water was now as smooth as air with a sweetness that i had never tasted before. All of the chemical taste and harshness was gone.
ZERO, LET ME REPEAT, ZERO EFFECT ON POTENCY but a major effect on taste and smoothnes.
The soak water. A brown sludge settled in the bottom of the soakwater jar. The next day, my bud came by with a high quality jewelers loope and we looked at the soak water.
7 whole hardshelled bug of pinpoint size
numerous bug parts- legs, wings,etc.
caterpillar larve
BRown sludge- Insect feces, bird feces, pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and arsenic, soot, dirt and dust, chloropyll, terpins, tar and god only knows what other nasty ingredients were in it.
Ive been grinding up that nasty concoction for years and puffing away. If he hadnt shown me this, i would have smoked this batch as well. You will be shocked at what was hiding inside that big outdoor bud when you picked it.
No more hacking a coughing in the mornings for me. Ill never smoke another jar of outdoor that hasnt been soaked and rinsed.
Take a 1/2 oz of weed. Soak 1/4 as described above and leave the other quarter be. Twist up the joints and start smoking. You will be a convert before the soaked weed has been all smoked. If you have a nasty tasting indoor, heres the cure.
My buddy has been doing it a while. He uses distilled water with a few drops of vanilla or cherry extract in the water. He calls this his version of water curing, but claims its much easier and more effective done at this stage, rather than during a normal cure process
