I've been drying for around 5 days. The buds are pretty dry to the touch and the branches are arent bendy but they dont snap when bent all the way they stay together. I'm guessing its time to jar it up but I'm just double checking.

So let me know asap :]

I dry for 7-10 days and then paper bag for 5 days but I live in a mist wreated island and a 17th century damp draughty house. Just remember when you jar them to leave em open long enough each day for the first wee while.

If in doubt paper bag em for 5..

ready for jars when branches snap crisply. they should snap off like a dead stick you'd find on your lawn. should snap cleanly also, nothing stringy between branch and trunk.... good luck and post some pics and weight

i wouldnt jar it till the branches snapped cleanly. you could also try breakin a nug in half and see if it's dry on the inside of the bud....

that is fine when u cure the moister from the inside will come out, i agree completely with ijustgrowGREEN for best results follow that advice and cure for 1-3 months (but who the hell can w8 that long lol)in glass jars .
