I have been drying my buds for 3 days now and they feel a little dry but very sticky. I bent the stem and it bent fairly easy but did not snap. I did hear alot that dont let it dry till the stem snaps but just bends with ease. So my question is that even though its only been 3 days should they be good to put in jars and start the curing process? My temps are about 65 to 70 and humidity stays between 50 to 55.

If those temps and humidity was stable for 3 days no way those buds are dry enough to jar in my opinion

Every single failed drying/curing thread starts with "I dried for 3 days and then put it in jars."

Bud don't go in jars until about a day before they are dry enough to smoke. Used to be solid advise but these days we got people growing oil deficient bud and using water moisture to provide a slow burn, instead of oils..

Give it ten more days then check it for smoothness. Could take 7 more.
