Tips For the Tincture Curious

@Classybanana "Curing isn’t necessary for edibles, but your material does need to be dry enough to jar to ensure there’s not a lot of excess moisture (water tends to pull out undesirables). I recommend gently breaking up the nugs for decarb, to ensure even decarboxylation. See above for my advice on making infusions" from this: I also have my own experiments brewing lol:
