So at the moment im in the curing stage ,
Dried hanging for 7-8days between 50-60-rh and thn put into jars for the cure . When i put them in the jar they were crispy on the outside n bit moist in the center after the initial jarring i took them out to dry for an extra 2 days. And back into the jar .. at the beginning there was alot of tht wet smell but its gradually going away .. i noticed after burping i get tht gokd bud smell ive tried some but it still has a slight wet taste.. i want to make sure the smell gets stronger and the remove more moisture to get rid of the slight wet taste , how can achieve this.. just keep doing what im doing or?

It's such an important part of the process, those hygrometers are very key.

7-8 days is pretty good with RH at 50-60, but it's not always going to be long enough. With a hygrometer in your jar, after a few hours you will be able to tell if it's safe to leave in there. If the RH jumps above 65% (in less than 6 hours), you need to take the buds out and I'd suggest putting them into a brown paper bag(s). Each day or so you can take them out of the brown paper bag and put them back in the jar.
