Should my buds feel crispy when going in to grove bags

[Jayde962]

I chopped last friday and bud washed 9 out of 13 plants whole plant dried the rest

dried 6 days 62-65 50-60rh

i trimmed everything this morning and my buds felt really crispy but still firm when i put then in to the grove bags

Will the buds moisten back up in a couple days?

last grow i wet trimmed(terrible idea) and it dried in 3 days cause it was hot out(in Az) so i have zero references
thanks in advance!

That step of going into a bag can be tough. Tip I picked up here at THC was how to cure. I go from dryer to storage container, opening daily, for a few weeks then into sealed bags. It's made a huge difference in taste, smell, evens out moisture, shelf life etc.

hope this helps

Any feedback on the Grove bags? I'm trying some for the first time here. I dried hanging buds until they felt dry on the outside, but the stems didn't quite snap. Put 9 ounces of those into a Grove bag, and the next day RH was at 64%, and the buds were now sort-of moist to the touch. I think that might be ideal, but I'm going to burp the bag for a day or so to be sure I avoid a mold situation.

The second bag got some less-dry buds. Barely dry on the outside, and large, thick buds. Within a few hours a hygrometer in the bag was at 70%, and the buds were moist to the touch (and sticking together a lot). So those don't seem dry enough. I'm leaving that bag open for now, and I'm considering moving those buds to a paper bag overnight to dry more.

Standard stuff, I think. Basically dry to the point where you would maybe burp a mason jr daily.

I know this might not be ideal for some people but what I do since I already had about 8 Mason jars is, I dry my buds,trim them and then put them in mason jars with hygrometers until they read a consistent 62 to 64 and then I put them into grove bags and never touch them again really(until I devour them)

I recently put some bud in a Grove bags that was in the 64/65 range and I was a little worried about mold,so I checked them once every week for a month and found they were fine. Your results may vary though if you live in a humid area.
