So how long are buds good for after they are cured?

Depends on how they are stored, how they were dried and how they were cured. A good cure right down to 63 rH, with a Bovida pack to keep the humidity at the right point, can stay stored in a jar for several years... I am smoking on some right now that I produced a year ago, and it is still very good.

I haven't tested the life span, but I've got jars well over a year that still smoke good. Store it in cool dark place (after fully cured). I believe that cooking it down into a concentrate will shorten the shelf-life, but oh it's worth it if you find what works best for you. Store oils in the refrigerator. I just try to rotate the jars and do something with the oldest ones. But I won't hold back if that new bud knocks my socks off...

I have a cellar that holds 67 degrees year round , got lucky came with the place! As of last Thursday we have 168 jars with 11 different strains , tested the white queen that same day . August it was 5 years old and still retains its flavor with these packs!

Oh and I like to share my extra with close friends. But I never disclose where it came from. I like the look on their face when I won't accept their money...

We have plenty friends that make sure we show up every Thursday and Saturday nights. Roll 18 of one brand then 2 of the OG Kush in case the drunks start fighting, saved by the og knock out!

I try really really hard to smoke/vape or cook up all of my buds before they reach the end of their effective life... its a tough job, but someone has to do it.

you are amazing !!
I started paying attention to the smell and when i overwatered , the smell was gone -2 days later she’s stinky and medium-wet now. Nice addition to my tool box - thanks

I’m still smoking buds from 2 years ago. I don’t think they’ve changed from 4 months of curing. Every once in a while I air out the jars. I’m not sure if that makes any difference after a year or so, but I like the aroma.

Quit opening it.. you'll destroy the terpeins in it and youll lose that smell each time u open the jar then your buds will smell like nothing but a maple tree leaf lol.. but serious if there cure in u keep opening youll lose that great smell
