I started curing pork belly for bacon over a week ago now. Normally there is decent amount of liquid that comes out. This time there has been none? I am pretty sure I used correct amounts. Anything to worry about?
 
It always varies for me . As long as your fridge temps are good , and you used the right amounts , I wouldn't worry .

As long as there is a little bit it's not a problem.
However if it's completely Dry, you might want to add a few TBS of cold water. It needs some liquid to transport the cure.
