So at the moment im in the curing stage ,
Dried hanging for 7-8days between 50-60-rh and thn put into jars for the cure . When i put them in the jar they were crispy on the outside n bit moist in the center after the initial jarring i took them out to dry for an extra 2 days. And back into the jar .. at the beginning there was alot of tht wet smell but its gradually going away .. i noticed after burping i get tht gokd bud smell ive tried some but it still has a slight wet taste.. i want to make sure the smell gets stronger and the remove more moisture to get rid of the slight wet taste , how can achieve this.. just keep doing what im doing or?
 
It's such an important part of the process, those hygrometers are very key.

7-8 days is pretty good with RH at 50-60, but it's not always going to be long enough. With a hygrometer in your jar, after a few hours you will be able to tell if it's safe to leave in there. If the RH jumps above 65% (in less than 6 hours), you need to take the buds out and I'd suggest putting them into a brown paper bag(s). Each day or so you can take them out of the brown paper bag and put them back in the jar.
 
Yeah ill definitely need to get some hygrometer tht are smaller to fit in the jars .. any good recommendations on hygrometer for curing?
