    I will buy some more jars of different size variations so for future harvest I can pic the jar best suited for the yield of a particular plant , do u think the bigger jar would make my bud dry faster and give a harsher taste??

    big jar little jar doesnt matter its really relevant to the RH in the jar as to how fast it will dry in jar, more bud less air higher RH, i try not to "pack" my jars, mold city, but just fill them.

    Damn.. sorry to hear that bro, but I think it night b to a poor trim job.. if it has that wet grass smell.. its prob because there is still a good amount of wet foliage ob the plant.. maybe u should try giving ur plants a better trim if u didn't the first time... And I'm not sure about this theory but I read that that smell can come from over-nuting. I found that my white widow had that smell for about 3 weeks during flower .. I cut back on the feeding the last 2-3 weeks of flower (as I planned on Doing anyway) and the smell went away.. idk if that's the cause still tho, just my 2 cent ... Sorry I can't give u more help , I'm a newbie myself

    Theres a great how to, I think its a sticky.
    Good advice right there.

    From what I've read, the "cure" zone is 50-60% and anything above 60% for an extended period of time has the potential for mold? Sound about right?

    I had the same questions during my first couple harvests and from what i glean dry time depends on bud density, if you water prior to chopping, trimming before/after hanging, etc.; but regardless of all that, a hygrometer will tell you when to burp and how long. Until you can get one, use your best judgment and your gut. It's probably more accurate than 90% of the info you'll get off the net.
