Worst drying/curing advice that you still see people going by?

[mr.brunch]

I just hang dry in a tent with a filter until it feels dry enough then clip the buds into jars.
Burp every day… quicker in summer obviously..
I don’t have a large grow space so it doesn’t get much curing, but I prefer fresh buds

boveda packs (62%) in the jars after a nice hang dry for the win...

Half dry weed getting placed in musical jars for months. Not drying enough is about the only way good weed ends up smelling like hay.

Worst advice I've ever tried to use was people using their refrigerator to "dry" weed slowly. Total stinky, moldy joke.
I use a Cannatrol now, and haven't looked back at all. This homebrew BS and bro science that still infect the whole cannabis world are terribly confusing, especially when it seems certain web sites do NOT talk about proper drying.

I was under the impression that a certain amount of moisture in the buds was necessary for the curing and break down of chlorophyl etc. 50-55% RH in the jars which is not bone dry.
Too dry is not great for Terp preservation or other elements relating to potency when you smoke it.
You maybe live somewhere hot and dry? and this plays into what i was saying about it depending on your local environment. Where i live if you left bud out of the jar it would more often than not get wetter rather than drier.... but sometimes it could get bone dry. i won't spend money on controlling the environment in a room when i can simply finish the process in a jar to get it that bit drier or to moisten it a bit. if you're commercial then i guess you can't do that so much but i doubt most big commercial growers worry about curing! - not round my way anyway...
I agree with what you say about genetics. i have a few nice clones myself. You cant make sh1t weed into good weed with curing etc but you can still get the best out of the genetics you have by not f*cking up the dry/cure...

But once flower gets "too dry", even if you rehydrate it, it cannot continue the curing process. It's stuck at whatever stage it was when the moisture level went too low. It may smoke slightly smoother (less harsh) by rehydrating it, and it helps to keep it from crumbling to dust, but curing is stopped.

HI, i don't really understand why that would be ? which reactions involving moisture would stop permanently and not resume once the moisture was there again ?
