dpends on what you mean if the room its drying in is kept at 65% its going to take a long time to dry.. if your talking about being in a area where the humidity is high outside and its drying inside its different and won't pick up that outdoor humidity levels like it would if there was a humid room.. plus air movement and shit plays a role in that humidity also

There are a number of things that effect moisture in an area.
A closed room will increase the humidity, you can add a fan and that should lower it..
Drying outside is not a good idea as there is no way to control the humidity.

All in all the answer is yes you can get it dried below the 65% humidity number, you mainly need to reduce the problem by increased air movement. I live on the gulf coast and fight the humidity here all the time, massive amounts of air movement needed here.

I do appreciate both of your comments but I'm aware of all the things you mentioned, I wasn't asking for advice - it was hypothetical - Will the bud get below 65% if the room is at a constant 65%?

... I think the flowers drying would stabilize in a " range " close to that number. I am curing buds that have stayed at 72% for 5 weeks ( no matter with burping and boveda ) they are good smoke and sticky. So no complaints !

I bottled with a Hygrometer ( outside RH 45% ) inside bottle is (72%) and stored in a 70-77 degree house.

An area with 65% humidity would be good thing :bigjoint:

they just control the relative hummity which has nothing to do with potency and flavor change comes with time - I agree

yes they do change the flavor theres not even a question of it we've used them prior it made our organic bud smells go from normal to the smell of almost nothing they do effect the smell... and NO ONE stated a single thing about potency did they? no so don't put words in my mouth please.

I have been growing for quite a long time and I have what may be a dumb question, but I don't know the answer. If you are drying your bud in an environment that has a constant humidity of 65%, can the bud get drier than 65%?

You ain't drying any buds above 60%.
