are the buds snapping off the branch?
thats when i know they are dry... just bending the branch isn't relevant.

sounds really dry... did you have a fan blowing right on them?

the buds are snapping of the branch,i had a fan that was blowing on the side not directly on them,maybe the smaller buds dry quicker and the bigger ones seem to be less dry,can i start curing the smaller buds and then just add the bigger ones in a day or 2

5-6 days is about right - start curing the lot now! Open for 10-15 mins twice a day for a week or so then they can be stored...

Oh yeah - give us some bud porn whilst yer at it!

this is why im not a fan of the whole dry til the stems crack business.

The outside will usually become too brittle to handle before the moisture is extracted from the stem. i usually go from hanging, wait about three days, then paper bag for a couple days making sure to burp the back, then hang again for a day or two then into jars.

good luck, takes a week or two of curing before the desired smell comes back to the bud. GL
