Question on drying a bud in microwave

[NORMANREH]

You guys think that microwaving your bud makes it ruin the flavor?

good question



If you’re still determined to microwave your Cannabis buds in a regular microwave oven on high heat, the most common advice you’ll get from “microwave proponents” on cannabis-dedicated forums or regular discussion sites is to do the following:

1. Chop or shred the buds first.
2. Place them on a microwave-safe tray and put them inside the microwave.
3. Microwave them in short bursts of 10-20 seconds on full power and be careful not to burn your plant materials.
4. After each burst, open the microwave door to let some steam out and stir your buds.

In the end, what happens when you microwave weed is that although you get dried Cannabis buds ready for smoking, their THC and terpenes quality will be severely damaged.

Conclusion: Should You Microwave Weed to Decarb It?​

If you want to enjoy the full aroma and THC potency of your weed, the answer is no, you should not microwave weed.

I thought that would be true. Thanks for showing me that.

Place a few small buds on the top of your cable TV box
The warm will help it dry faster.

Dehydrator would work way better, if you have one.

I have 2 but way to much work digging them out to dry a small bud or 2.

It is worth the wait. It's not nice to fool mother nature.

When I take a sample I want to try now I do this. Put the bud in front of a slow fan for two days then grind it and wait two more days to try it.

Less than four days like that just didn’t meet my expectations of what the final product would be like
