Dry/Cure Ques

So I cut off like a branch or 2 earlier before i had a microscope to see if ready, its dried for bout a week and its been jar for like 3 days, its really dry, like almost crumbles to the touch and what i noticed is nuggets or also any weed id buy seem to be a little more flexible and not as crumply as what mine is resulting in, am i doing something wrong? Like something that looks like it would weight a gram and 1/2, only weights .6grams. I hang for a 5-7 days and jar it for cure, this is right, right?

To add a little moisture i put a piece of and orange peel into the jar.

Yeah, I think there is no good time limit to drying, you have to judge for yourself. If a branch snaps or comes close to snapping (the outside of the bud should feel crispy), its time to jar them. Then just open the jars a few times a day for about 10 minutes. Eventually, you'll know they're well cured by the touch and when you grind it up and its dry all over (but not too dry).

The bud I just cut down only needed about 3 days of drying before it went into the jars... It really depends on how much you watered them before cutting them down I think...

I've always heard to do your final flush a week or so before harvest and then just not water again. It's supposed to cut your drying time down considerably.

sounds like you dried with super-low humidity.. put a hygrometers in your dry room, according to some guide i read you want to stay between 45-55% where 55+= Mold and 45-=tumbleweed (lol i just made that up)

IM HILARIOUS

sorry.
