People cure differently - i am in week 5 and chomping at the bit to make tincture. I just wanted to ask you guys how long you cure for.
Got mine in mason jars - all burped etc etc

I like to go at least 2-3 weeks before even sampling a bud. 6-8 weeks seem to work out for me. YMMV.

Based on what exactly? Look? Smell? Taste?

I’m probably wrong here, but I’m hoping to understand why there is any need to cure for tincture at all. I would assume you could decarb fresh weed, make tincture, and have a final product that is barely different (maybe slightly more chlorophyll taste)….but probably equally potent to using well-cured cannabis. Am I wrong? Honest question….but I see no reason why the OP should wait to make tincture. All respect intended….

the best quality u can get only through curing, if u can't wait then it's your loss.

None. If it's a tincture or bubble hash, there's no cure needed.
