Finished my 2nd grow. I dried my Maui Wowie for 11 days at 66 to 68 degrees F and 50-55% humidity in a dark room with a low circulating ceiling fan. I checked them every day and when the buds snapped off the main stem I determined it was time to cure. No snap in the main stems, but most buds snapped off so I thought I was right on target. I trimmed and jarred and am burping for about 10 minutes 2 times a day. I put Boveda packs in all but 1 jar just to see how close I was 'getting it right'. The Boveda ones are at the correct humidity level as expected, but the jar without Boveda are at 40% humidity and it has been like this for the past 2 weeks. I am wondering what I did wrong with the snap test? I am assuming if I dried it under the proper conditions the non Bodeda jar would be at or close to a better humidity. Should I have harvested before the buds snapped off? I figured if anything I started the cure too soon since the only snap I got was on the stem connecting the buds but no other stems down the branch. I want to get this dialed in better for my next grow but I am absolutely missing something on the snap test lol. My LA Confidential and New York Diesel I only dried for 9 days and they smell great now. The Maui still doesn't smell great yet- not grassy, not ammonia, but not like weed lol. I know it's going to take time and experience, but curious of what I did wrong.
