Thats bad advice. Humidity 100% changes that.
If u hang ‘dried’ buds in 90% humidity room they will absorb that moisture and yes if you jarred it then it woukdnt be good

No, it wouldnt just be your buds absorbing moisture if moisture was dropping out of the air would it!
Sugest at that point you have bigger problens than moldy bud.

Can you throw an ac in a room and close the door?

Buds have moisture content, under a certain amount they wont mold, its not going to oick up enough in a small jar.
How many days did you dry? If the answer is under two weeks you jarred too early, bud releasing moisture is bad, re dry till it dont say two weeks in total.
A lot dont understand the pros, more than a way you get full understanding.

Toss them all in a paper bag with a hydrometer roll it closed stir once a day till they are ready to smoke. Then jar.

I do the ac method.. run ac in your room and monitor RH (use dry mode if u have it, crank AC down as low as you need to
Empty jars out onto a table or something with surface area and wait an hour and rear, check humidity in the jars after an hour or two and see how much it dropped and repeat until in jarring range

I did what Merlin says last grow. My drying rack filled up so the rest went in paper bags. I put a small hydrometer in and rolled the bag but I had to crack the bags open or rh would be too high. After a few days I closed the bags back up. I had never tried this technique and it worked great.

Holy ffs man. 90% was an extreme example. They will absorb and equalize to whatever the room hunidity is

That’s the way I always dry and cure. Hang dry whole. With or without the fan Leaves on depending on the season until the outsides are crispy 7-10 days then I clip off all the buds and paper bag them in a cool place till they are smokable 10-14 days then trim and jar.
