Nice work Rawfootage. Sometimes, I found with friends harvests. If they waited until the stem snapped, the actual buds on the stems would be dry like cardboard. I personally dont go by the stem snapping, I feel the buds to the touch. Its all depends on your personal harvest, how thick and dense the nugs are. If your buds are gettin crispy on the outside, and still feel a little crisp as you squeeze, I'd say throw them in jars with no worries. Burp them 3-5 times for the next couple days, and your sailing bro. Some would say thats wrong. But Hey. Not all buds are the same, so learn from your personal knowledge.
