Hi Guys,

I read the forums and appreciate all of this teaching and learning. /bow

I recently harvested a feminized Pineapple Express plant ( G13 ) that I grew from seed in MG Potting Soil ( Sorry in advance ), Vegged and Flowered w/ T5's in a grow tent. My girlfriend hates it SO much. Well until buds come out of it.

Anyway, this plant smelled so so so amazing toward the end of her life. I grew bag seed a few times before paying a little more for the Item 9 seeds. The gap in quality is HUGE.

So I watered with plain water 7 days before I harvested it. Chopped at the base, picked off the large fan leaves and hung it to dry in the grow tent with nothing running inside except a humidifier, small osc fan on low and the 6" exhaust fan I have hooked up to carbon filter. RH never dropped below 50% or passed 60%. The outside of the larger buds felt crispy and had lost most of the smell. The smaller buds still felt oddly more moist and smelled better. I chopped and jarred them when I felt the crispiness of the large buds. I pinched one to test inside moisture and the pineapple smell creeps out heavily. I threw a chunk of a larger bud in the grinder and it's quite moist inside. If I let it sit in the grinder for 1-2 hours it smells like god's vagina. It tastes decent, a bit harsh, crazy good high.

Finally and apologies with how long this post is, my question! Am I doing something wrong that is causing these things to keep the moisture locked in the middle? I understand that curing continues the processes at work, but the outside of these things never ever feel moist.

Thanks for reading and I appreciate any advice you guys might have. Enjoy your lives!

My guess would be to put them in a jar with less free space (keeping them a little tighter together, get a boveda humidity pack ( .99 cents) each, put inside the jar lid. It will bring the humidity up, or down to 62. These packs are incredible, a foolproof way to cure and store your smoke.
