Under ideal circumstances, the process of ‘processing’ doesn’t really take long and it is done simultaneously while the flowers are towards the end of the blooming stage. Post that, you enter the drying stage where you need to dry your flowers for about 10 to 14 days. Next is the curing phase which would take about three weeks - so add another 21 days to that. All in all, the harvesting process can take anywhere between a month to 40 days.
