I cured mine in a mason for 4 weeks there and it lost all its terms :/ must have done something wrong, tastes like hay lol
If it tastes like hay, I might be that the bud had not dried sufficiently before cure
Ah. The stems were snapping after 7 days and I thought it was time. Tbh, after 4 weeks it’s still a bit sticky and balls up in the grinder.

Ah well, you live and learn

That is why a small hydrometer is a good idea? I use one myself most times. Anything over 60 RH it goes out to dry again.

I popped the one from my tent into the cupboard I was drying in and it was hovering around 52-55. It was a fail grow anyway, I popped a seed from a 3 pack of fem’s and it started flowering 2/3 weeks into veg, turned out to be an auto

I jar mine up around 70 rh give or take and bring it down slowly over a week or 2 i really think it keeps that stickiness doing it this way, when ive jarred up and rh is too low lets say around 60% rh i swear it doesn`t seem to sticky, maybe sticky is wrong word but yes im sure you get jist. Its much easier for those 62 or 58 rh packs to remove than add I've found, if that makes sense. :boogie:

I like keeno's method of popping your buds in a storage box with a hydrometer for an hour when you think it's ready, make sure it's at the right stage to jar it
