Low humidity...straight to jars?

[Phil D Boll]

First grow getting close to harvest, about 10% amber trics. I clipped off a branch and hung it for 2 days. The buds are already dry and brittle. Humidity is about 25%. It was a cfl grow so the buds aren't real dense. Will putting the buds into a jar immediately after harvest or maybe 24 hours later help? I figure I'll have nothing but dust if I was to cure the buds I just clipped. I did spark some of it up tonight, not a bad buzz at all. At day 88 since 12/12 started.

if its mostly dry put it in a jar. if ALL the moisture leaves too fast it will taste worse

you want the stems bendy but not breakable
if the stems break you waited too long

i live in a dry climate and i dry in paper bags or a cardboard box. this slows the drying a bit for me then i cure in glass jars. if you dry too quickly you might have a more green taste a slower dry will allow for more of the chlorophyll to dissipate.

Great advice. You can slow down the dry with paper bags inside of plastic trash bags too. Burp the bags as you would a jar.
