Why too moist?
Does it not burn appropriately in this range?

It is mostly a matter of preference. I like it a little dryer which in turn i feel it burns better and taste better.

Although the 62% is a little moist and burns fine, i feel it taste kind of moist or steamy if that makes any sense.

For long term storage, i would expect it to dry a little more over time. If after a year it was still at 62%, there is no reason i couldn't dry a little more before consuming.

I like to smoke my weed bone dry. I don't like smoking water either.

I keep a cap damprid with a dryer sheet rubberbanded on top in my headstash jar, which only has a little bit of bud at a time.

Ok so my growing associate and I have come to the cutting and curing phase of our 1 st very successful grow. the problem is I start getting an area prepared for hanging and he is under the impression that ....stuffing the buds in paper sacks (you know the little brown school lunch bags) and weighing the sacks.Then when the sacks have reached 1/4 of the original weight the bud is ready to smoke or cure.I think he is nuts and i was wondering if this is some kind of old shit that hippies did back in the 70's (he is that old).any input?

Paper bags is step one. The size of bag depends on how much bud is going in it. I use large grocery bags and lay the buds/branches flat, flipping the bags 180*s every couple days. I leave mine in bags for ~ 2 weeks then transfer to jars with a thermo meter which reads humidity and temp + Bovida 62*s
