What steps would you change, so new growers are not ruining their cannabis?

How to Properly Dry and Cure Cannabis Buds

post said:Here’s FOUR KEYS TO CURING CANNABIS:
.
1. Start with mostly dried buds or colas. The bud stems may be just brittle enough to snap after bending a bit.
.
2. Set up a climate-controlled environment with consistent temperature and relative humidity so the buds lose water at a stable, slow pace.
* Temperature: 65-70° F (18-21° C)
* Humidity: 50-55%
* Continuous circulation using oscillating and/or ceiling fans on low
* Buds or colas placed loosely on trays, in boxes, or hung on lines.
.
3. Time: 10 to 30 days
The buds dry slowly and consistently over several weeks. Curing allows the terpenes, which are oils, to continue to evolve. The trichomes continue to dry and smooth out and the THC-acid (THCa) converts to 9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).
.
4. Light: Constant dim light
Bright light, especially ultraviolet light, degrades cannabinoids and terpenes. Curing buds must sit in low light to total darkness.
