Me too, thanks for the heads up qwizo. I also just got a 20brick of the big 62 packs. I'm using them in halfG mason jars. I'm spooked now tho, too many people saying be easy!!

I have been using cure caps to monitor the rh in my jars. I guess people have been using them with the boveda packs too. I only use the cure caps though. If my pot is lacking in rh I just put a damp piece of paper towel in with my pot over night.

I have the small glass containers that hold about 8 grams, but didn't want to waste the boveda pack's by putting 1 in all my 10 containers.... This container is the good one that snaps down on all 4 sides. Well humidity in there at its highest was 64 so I opened it and let it get down to 57 now ( hour later) its back to 61 per humidity.
Hey bro how u made out on the cure

The 8g boveda packs are good for about 1oz of product. What I do is dry it naturally to about 58-60% then put about 1.5 oz per jar. I throw in a small hygrometer and most of the time I can keep the humidity right at 58%, which is where i like it. Otherwise, if it's say at 62% I'll get some out the day before and just keep it in my 'day container' and it will dry out a bit during the day, and it's usually gone before it gets too dry. Repeat daily.

I've never had any problems with mold and I've cured at 62% but it doesn't have my favorite texture that way I like buds that burn quickly. But it tastes good as hell and after a 2 month cure it was dried out to where I liked it. I think 55% is perfect.

I wrote a letter to them a year ago, no response, I too wish they'd make one for 55% or 58%, for now I use them for long storage, not curing I've learned.

I also use 62% h. Packs in my mason jars they were at 62% for about 2 weeks. Then I tried to modify my lids and cut out circles and glued in gauges. After a couple days I started noticing RH was dropping so I threw lids away and put new ones back on I put hum. Packs back in and now they are all in the 55%-60% range.

I agree with some members here that the 62s are too damp. At least to my liking. However, boveda has come out with 54s. I haven't tried them yet but they are around the same price on ama zon. There aren't any reviews yet, so I assume they came out fairly recently.

I have 9 jars total, which contain about of 2 - 3 jars of each strain I grew this summer. I've removed the Boveda from 1 of each strain and have reduced the humidity closer to smoking preference. The remaining jars each still have a Boveda 62. In every case, not only are the jars with the Boveda's obviously more moist, but the smell is much more potent in the jars that still have Boveda packs.

As others have mentioned, the drier weed seems more potent and burns cleaner than the moister product in with Boveda packs. So this works for me... for long term storage, insert Boveda pack. When a 'strorage' jar becomes the next 'smokeable' jar, remove the Boveda pack and reduce RH to 55% or so.

I also find the 62 too wet. Especially with less dense nugs.

But we have the ultimate leverage in getting them to change and thats refusing to buy em. I wont buy anymore. Or overstuff them like another user said.

MMJ is a big money market to be in. They see sales decline maybe they will listen to the user and not some scientists.
