Over drying

I harvested my first about 4 days ago, trimmed and hung the buds. I put them in jars to cure but after burping twice i have noticed that the buds seem extremely dry. How do i tell if the buds are too dry and what do i do to fix that?
 
Here is a link to some good info on curing:
https://www.rollitup.org/harvesting-curing/365510-importance-curing-your-buds.html

Based on that article (and it is from a solid source), you are looking for a moisture content of ~40% for curing, and then 10-15% in the finished bud.
You can measure the moisture content in a sealed container with this little gadget:

If the moisture is too low, I would put in an orange peel or something similar for 8 hours or so, until the moisture level gets up to an acceptable level. I have found that pot dehydrates readily-- just be sure to take the peel out or you could end up with mold.

If you haven't cured yet
