I’ve never actually tested it on a fresh cut since i know its wet.@Learningdetroit , whats the meter read on fresh cuttings?
I just went out and put the meter on a still grounded plant and it read anywhere from 25 / 35% on the different parts I tested. There could be some variables there that are not accounted for as it’s been super wet the past few days.

I know you didn’t ask about any of this but it’s More stuff regarding moisture meters that I’m stealing I feel could interest or help people.
Drying ends: 14-15%
Curing ends: 11-12%
Pleasant smoke: 10-12%
Harsh dry smoke: 10% or less
Moisture content and relative humidity are two different things.
Moisture content is the amount of water in a material.
Relative humidity measures water vapor in the air at a specific temperature.
Water Activity is equal to Relative Humidity, which is dependent on temperature. You want to worry about water activity while drying, not curing.
WA of 0.6 or less is ideal. All to avoid mold and bacteria, and limit terpene degradation.
