Should be OK just a little low for a slow dry... I keep mine in a paper bag for at least 2 weeks of cure then throw it in the fridge for a day or two before smoking to get it nice and dry (humid around here and bud will soak moisture back up making it hard to smoke if left out at atmospheric conditions). Your dry conditions you will probably do better with jars as they will allow you to keep the humidity higher.
I’m hopeful though that they will get there - wherever that may be!
Thanks - I think that might have happened. I had to go away for 4 days and my evap humidifier ran out of water. When I got home the humidity was 35RH. The buds felt crispy to the touch on the outside. Since that time I’ve kept them in the containers with some 62% humidity packs - humidity has gotten to 58%, but drops after I open them for 10 minutes twice a day to 47-50RH. Chalk it up to learning and better planning for my harvest. Will keep “curing” them another few weeks. Will smoke some this weekend to see if they have any potency.
Thanks for the tip about raising the RH!give it some time. stuff will really improve over time.
if they are dry going in at jar, cut some of the thicker stalks up and put them in the jars with your weed. they hold the moisture longer than the bud and will get your rh up in the jars to help with cure.
ideally you want to be around the 60% rh mark going in. rh in the jars will almost always rise a little at the beginning, as the larger buds release a bit. the smaller ones will pick it up and stuff will even out, as part of the cure process.
if your hygrometers are showing low rh in the jars, then extend times between burping a bit as well. that may help.
It happens. Life gets in the way. The bovedas are really meant to maintain the rh, not increase it. Once you reach 62% the bovedas go into the jars. That's probably why you see it drop so fast when the lid opens.
I was looking at a Tupperware bowl in my kitchen just now and it looked oval - then I looked again and it was round - haha - this bud is a bit psychedelic No flavor or smell really and not harsh. Doesn’t expand much like my Dispensary bud does - no coughing.
Didn’t notice anything like that - but I only added it around 3-4th week of flower, she grew for 8 more weeks after that.
Nice. I fed super thrive right up to harvest (with a small flush) ages ago and didn't get it all flushed out. Let's just say I won't do that again. Glad to hear your harvest wasn't contaminated.
