To dry it proper maybe?
My question is if the branches are "snapping" generally it's dry right? The OP said his were snapping so don't see why it would still be hanging. Once mine snap I jar and open jars daily for about an hour for a while?

5 days could be long enough of a hang if the conditions are terrible, but they still arent ready for jarring if they are at 74% after sealing.
Not a huge deal to lay them back out on a screen, brown bag or whatever.
Stems snapping isnt the goal, slow drying is

stem snapping is a terrible metric for determining if drying is done. first off, some people hang whole plants and dry trim. some people break everything down small and wet trim. also, what stem is being referred to? the main stem of each cola? the tiny stems that attach individual buds to the cola stems?
Bottom line, if there are buds in jars that read over %70 they never should have gone in the jars to begin with regardless of what the stems are doing.
