I haver been drying my two plants in a 3x3 tent and temps been around 75 to 77 and humanity been from 40 to 50. I put them in the the tent Tuesday and its now Saturday. The steams bend but don't snap yet the buds feel crispy and dry as hell. Should I leave it till they snap or jar now?
Over dried?

How is it that so many are aware of 2 preprogrammed options but can't make a choice between the two?
If you cant figure out whether your weed should be in a jar or hanging up, then compromise,and put it in plastic bags like a normal drug dealer would. Man these dispensaries got people so fucked up...

Your a brainless sheep and your lucky i even give you an answer. The bud is dry when it smokes well in a joint.... not rocket science is it

LOL! King, ya gotta admit Lingua is a troll. Lennut, most of us here just ignore him and move onto the next post.
I am learning and to be honest I have seen him answer in a very smart way but only once. Every other time it's been smart ass stupid comment. I been listening to Tad Hussey and Jeff Lowenfels trying to learn Organics and that way of growing. I am unsure of what King is talking about I left them until the steams snap. Maybe tomorrow

When weed grinds in a grinder and smokes well in a joint its done drying. Until then we dont touch it.
The crux is you need good bud as less than stella bud will never dry well and crisp or whatever.
You go follow x y and z but here you get the simple facts to educate yourself. That and complete a few more grows
I never said I used his teas!! 300 dollars seemed alittle high in price for me. I am trying to learn the best organic way to grow and listening to people who do it is my only way to learn. This grow was my first grow without nutrients and really didn’t want to over dry the bud. I understand once it will smoke it is dry but is it too dry. What a waste of time even asking on here because it seems only smart ass ignorant answers come out. But Thanks anywayTad Hussey compost tea brewer... i scowl at these noobs

You cant overdry bud by the hang dry technique - you can (however) bring it to its and the 'Equilibrium Moisture Content' where it will stay for quite a while and is dependant on humidity levels.
Allow me to paste a wiki link to some 'Basic' science the rest of the world excluding Tad Douchfacehuss and many misguided mj growers and industry use...
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_moisture_content
The questionis can you use what intelligence you have to see the answers are banging at your door waiting to be let in.
You either force dried your bud or you bud isnt that great to start with and magically wont turn into a great end product.
Funk do growers want... spoonfeeding cause thats where we go if you cant sort this out and come to a conclusion. Post your bud ill rate it out of ten

I was going to post a couple funny stories about weed smell/no smell but I don't have time to type it all out. I may type it out some time next week. The gist of it is that I found a couple buds that laid on the floor of the trim room for a couple weeks. I threw them on a tray and forgot about them for another couple weeks. When I stumbled across them and smoked some and it was bomb ass weed. It tasted better than the weed in my jars. What does that tell me?
Well!!! 8 days and I am incredible pleased!!! Who it’s fucken great without cure!!!!!!!! Can’t wait till cure is done. I have always gotten that hay taste and smell and I think I never dried it good enough. I am so please!! Sorry to ask stupid questions but I put a lot of love in them to just destroy them in the dryYou cant overdry bud by the hang dry technique - you can (however) bring it to its and the 'Equilibrium Moisture Content' where it will stay for quite a while and is dependant on humidity levels.

When I opened the jars from last grow to clean them for this grow they smell dank ass hell. Twice as good as anything I’ve grown and smelled

I think your getting the science to how to dry and starting to see how us pros dry weed with ease.
Please allow two weeks dry hang time and observe how the taste and smell comes through in the second week leaving you finished sellable primo bud.
Now you can simply jar. I wrote this so you can have all the answers -

Its hard to see those that do know from all those who dont but want to be at the forefront of this herb
It is so easy to understand now!! Thank you for that post and for walking with me through this. I now see I have been growing some good bud I was just drying it wrong and ruining the bud I grew...I think your getting the science to how to dry and starting to see how us pros dry weed with ease.

Here is an answer for you:
Usually when your stems are suppose to snap your bud will feel very crispy on the outside but it will still squish as their is moisture inside. break open a dry nug and take a smell and if you smell what you smelt before you cut your weed you're ok... put in jars in a cool dark place and the inner moisture will come back and your buds won't feel crunchy anymore. burp for a couple minutes 2-3 times a day and let cure for 4 weeks to 4 months
ps 75-77 is pretty high for drying you tend to want between 60-70 and 50-60rh

I dont agree sorry, its dry when it smokes and if you jar then it wont mold when stored. Stop trying to reinvent the wheel
