this is the second time i have harvested a sugar black rose. the first time i harvested it it smelled like hay and it never cured out. i associated it to being early.(it was a first grow) this time i let it go all the way 80 percent amber, beautiful bud...but its dried and smells like hay again. what in the hell am i doing wrong?

This is totally normal for it to smell like hay,what it means is that its not dried all the way through,what you may find helpful is to remove the buds from the stem and then dry them.They will dry quicker and the skunky smell will return slightly,but will return more full on once cured in a jar.

sounds like a plan to me. i do notice the more it dries the better it smells. humidity is still aroun 70 and lingering.

need to find a less humid place for it to dry out...70percent humidity is asking for mold

cut the buds from the stem and leave them on a piece of mesh in a dark room somewhere check every 12 hours or so,they will be fine you just have to show even more........................... patience.
