Hey Bro, How did the boveda humidity packs work for you? And what humidity level were they? Thx,

Hey Danny, Saw you ordered the Boveda humidity packs. You seem pretty knowledgeable, and I'd like your thoughts on using them. My buds are on the dry side of things and am looking for something to rehydrate with during the cure. Thx,

Hey bud, Saw you used the Boveda humidity packs. I'm thinking about going that route to rehydrate my buds. What's your thoughts on em? Thx,

This is for med. mar. patients, not myself. Herb has been curing for 4 days, regularly checking them for mold. Now, it appears mold isn't the problem. Left 24 hrs- no moisture, buds look dry. Not sure if they're below 55%RH- hygrometer's I have aren't calibrated. 1) If I rehydrate and they're...

Got it! I was looking at a diff. one that was quoting you and using airplanes as an analogy. Well, shit. Where can I get one of these things now? I don't wanna wait for ebay.

1) I am using two identical hygrometers that I got at the hydro shop- I calibrated them by putting them both in one container until they read identical RH and temp. 2) Harvested 11 days ago. Spent 1 day in a bag in my car, then after 2 days of hanging upside down in my tent, I dried them out too...

Thx, Simon!

The one about airplanes? Yes. It's awesome! What I can't figure out is how to deal w/ HIGH RH and DRY BUDS. It's an oxymoron, really. I think I want to attack dry buds first- that's why I'm asking about rehydrating. Currently, I am jarring them for 12 hours and raising the temp from 65 to low...

1) B/c both hygrometers tell me so. 2) B/c the outside of the buds are too crispy

No, I'm asking you. How? Lettuce you say? Fine. How much per pound? How long do you leave it in? Do you swap lettuce pieces out or keep the same one. Details, s'il vous plait. Okay, wait. My RH is high (low 70's)- 3rd day in jars, been burping them every 4 hrs. for a couple minutes and NO...

I have a big-ass container, so inside I put a hygrometer (no sensor, the whole thing). I lay it on top of the buds- does this at all throw off the RH reading? I was thinking of taping it to the inside of the lid, but when I screw it off it kept falling off, plus I don't know if the tape...

I was listening to the radio, and Radiohead's, "Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry" came on, and it made me think- What if they're singing about curing weed? B/c having high RH (70-74) and the outside of the buds dry SUCKS! Here's what I've decided to do after talking to Simon. I've been...

That's what I just did. I've been popping lids for a few min's every 4 hrs. Now I'm thinking to wait 12 hrs. in hopes that this will bring back much needed moisture to outside buds- would you wait longer? Mold is really not a concern right now. I checked yesterday- they're dry! Yet RH remains...

I am having the SAME problem. The answer, I think, is bringing down RH w/o drying the outside buds further. So how do you do this? I have two theories to lower RH and two theories to bring back moisture- someone please chime in here cuz I haven't tested either yet. LOWER RH 1) Raise the temp a...
