Hi guys. I'm now drying my weed for 5th day, temperature is 21C humidity about 65%... But I don't really believe this chinese humidity meter, cause it is very dry in my place but sometimes it shows 80%, but it is unreal...

My buds is feeling really dry, but steam doesn't crack, can it be that buds is ready for curing?

I usually wait till the buds are dry and the stem does not snap (like you) and cure it that way the moisture from the stems leave slowly and enhance the flavor.

you could go to jars now if you want. If the twigs are not snapping yet chances are you'll have to burp your jars a lot. you'll see everything get really moist overnight.

Wait a couple more days. The outside of the bud will dry out faster. Just keep checking the stem. Once Jarred, the moisture will come out from the middle of the bud and re hydrate the dry outer side of the buds. Don't forget to burp the Jar a couple times a day. Till it is ready for smoking.

Good Luck.

I burp till moisture is right then seal and cure for 4-6 weeks. That's just me, I see a lot of people liking the semi dry no cure stuff.
