Is this something that happens when you vacuum seal your buds, they kind of look more greener then they did before you vacuumed them?

THere not wet when i grab them and they don't break apart like a dry cookie. Don't want to get mold what's the deal here?

I thought you could cure in the bag as well as the jar ? this isn't the best buds ever so I'm just trying to get it sell able and not lose it.

The vacuum pressure draws out the moister. Just like when you give a Hicky.

The jar is cool because when they sweat you can open the lid, let them breathe then close the lid again....then repeat as necessary......vac bags are good long term storage and not good for initial curing imho

Use a jar in a dark place is my advice vac bags are pretty expensive.

I find a combination of jars and large paper bags are the best for curing, and I go by my nose.

After the initial dry, I put my buds in jars, when they start to smell a bit like hay, I move them to the paper bags until they smell good again.
i repeat this process until the smell remains the same in the jars without burbing. Id then leave in jars for a couple of weeks, then I'd vacuum seal.
