Hi guys!
I recently chopped some Easyryder and dried them 4-5 days inside the grow chamber above the lights. They felt quite dry, so I put them into jars together with a hygrometer. But the RH never goes above 45%. Have I dried them too long?
Anyways, I let them sit in the jars for 3 days. Opened them yesterday and it smelled very funky.... Not very nice actually. But the smoke was good and potent as hell though!
Any ideas for what I can do? Do I need to open the jars every day to let in fresh air?
Best I can tell from the pics, the stems still look green. If they are, the odds are that your harvest is not overdried. I would, however, caution against fully relying on the numbers, as I have not tested the model you're using and cannot be sure of its readings.
Just harvested an OG kush today and plan on testing this method of curing out. I love how it takes out the guess work. The only question I have is for some reason some of my buds already felt dry on the plant before I harvested. I just dont want to wait too long to put them in the jars. Here is a diary of my grow and some pics of the harvest https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?p=3476839#post3476839
Some strains do feel drier than others. The growing conditions influence that, as well. You can rest assured that the flowers are indeed wet, as are the stems.
