I'm currently 4 days into drying my first (and very problematic) grow. Some of the stems have begun to snap, and ALL of the buds are now crunchy and drying fast! Please help?

put them in bags or jars for a few hours the buds will most likely moisten up from the moisture in the inside. Let them dry out agin and repeat process until they stop sweating but aren't bone dry.

Airy buds or fluffy buds try faster than heavy dense bud. You only needed a few days out and the rest in the jar. If it too dry - nothing much you can do but smoke it as it is. Learn from this error and move on. It only take 8 weeks to grown another batch.

a pear or mango slice gives it better flavor than an apple and if you put the fruit in a baby food jar in your big jar of buds you dont have the sticky touchin your weed

actually its a very easy problem to fix, you can put all kinds of various leafs and peels in with them for the first day or 2 of cure and they will suck it up and you'll be good. if you have any fan leaves left that arent dry i'd use those.

binog was his namo.. ... agreed

I hang dry for 4-5 days.. then jar for 12-24 hours.. then it stays out for a day.. back in the jars for a day.. out for a day.. and then in the jars.. if it needs anymore the jars stay open laying on their side for a couple hours at a time.. maybe 12 hours if needed... then jarred for X amount of time... it's not like I time it.. I just check it when I can..

The jars and bags let the moisture even out then it needs to dry a bit more.. allows for a good even complete dry before you cure it for your amount of time.. if at all..

alot of times the harshness comes from the buds not being fully or evenly dried I think...

Hello all ,had the same problem buds were so dry they turned to dust if you sqeeze them..orange,apple,lemon all work good or you can boil a pot of water put a screen over it and steam your buds then put them back in the jar...
