Sorry for my inexperience but maybe I can get a few more specific details. When you say "before they are bone dry" do you mean barely dry enough to smoke, a little drier or not quite that dry? Also when you say "let it dry a little, then back in the jar" is that usually about another day or what approximately?

Thanks for any advice.
rudy2010 Reviewed by rudy2010 on . Preserving flavor when drying buds Who has some good information on preserving the flavor of the buds when drying. All the buds smell awesome when they reach maturity but many lose most of their flavor when dried. I have tried leaving the buds on the plant without trimming, trimming before drying and partial trimming. The results don't seem to show the affects of the different drying methods. The afghan goo and white widow taste great but the dj short blueberry seems to have lost a majority of its flavor. The bliss smelled Rating: 5
