curing question

i have had my buds hanging in my closet for 5 days. i put them in jars, but some are still a little wet. should i leave the jars open for a couple days or just go ahead and seal them, and open them a couple times a day.

i always put my buds in the jar when a lil moist still but not wet. i would open the jars about 5 times a day for 5-10 min. and then close them up and roll the jar around to move the buds

mcpurple, couldn't he just leave it hanging longer until it gets really dry ?

Kind of defeats the purpose of curing, IMO.

he could but then the buds mite be to dry and just crumble. my buds are usally dry its the stem in the middle that is a lil moist still that way when it goes into the jar it slowly releases the moisture back into the buds and drys very evenly

Thanks for the explanation guys, never heard of it, I thought you had to wait until you get a crisp when you snap the stem, and actually that's what I read today in a couple of places, I guess the drying methods are evolving hehe

Will keep that in mind and probably do some more research

some people have different techniques ive waited till the bud was all the way dry and then cured but i like it the way i explained better, it doesnt trap as much chlorophyll in the buds.
oh and your welcome.

if to moist place into paper sandwich baggy and fold up the top and open 2 times a day. it is a lot easier to rotate bud from the bottom to the top in a baggy and it disapates moisture into paper better.after a couple of days place into jar and burp
