A real cure makes it less harsh the chlorophyll gets eaten by bacteria. The thca turns into THC overtime then cbn so it's more sedative. A cure does change bud but if it's bone dry that's not a cure that's just dried out you can't cure bud that turns to dust it's too late terpenes even oxidize and change. I had a gas strain bho before like a sauce was amazing smelled like a straight gas tank three weeks later the gas went away went to a Vicks vapor rub so terpenes change into other chemicals. An actual cure can really change a product but it has to be done right.
