What is the ideal moisture content for bud to start the curing process?.
For the bud idk the moisture content. I go by the RH at a stable 62% RH I start curingI was actually looking for numbers after using a moisture meter ? Ive been told 10-15%??
10 % to 12.5 %is what you normally see product on shelves RTB...I was actually looking for numbers after using a moisture meter ? Ive been told 10-15%??
right with ya on thatcheers folks, I know it’s anal but I’m trying to create the dankest product as competition is getting fierce.
did you mean the room humidity at 62%? srry for bringing up old postlolFor the bud idk the moisture content. I go by the RH at a stable 62% RH I start curing

How do you avoid shaking off off your trichomes in those shaken bags?You're over engineering. The goal is to dry slow. I dry mine in a cool room, like 60* F, for a week or so, with a fan moving air in the room. When the stems are getting brittle, and the tips of the buds are crisp, and the bud feels dry, but not crisp, I cut off into paper bags, and roll the tops closed. I dry those in the cool room for another two weeks, shaking every other day. Then into zips. Works fine, every time.
Yeah room humidity and cure humidity. Then drying a bit more before smoking.did you mean the room humidity at 62%? srry for bringing up old postlol
I'm just loosening up and turning over the buds in the bag. Not a hard shake, just turning to get airflow. Probably shedding a few trichomes, but not enough to affect the quality of the results.How do you avoid shaking off off your trichomes in those shaken bags?
Yeah MC ideally 12-15% for cure then I like dried down to about 8-10% for smoking.Moisture content ideally should be in the low teens, but if your using a dry trimming machine you got no choice but to take it down to about 10% if you want a nice tight trim. Now if your talking about moisture content of a jar or room I'd say low 60's, 62% being ideal for long term storage.
If you have the means for an a/c, humidifer and dehumidifier, think of your entire room as one big mason jar. If you can lock in the temp and humidity at 60/60 you can literally leave them on the vine to cure, trim, then just put them in their final container, no burping required. I've got my room at 60/60, let whole plants just hang there for upwards of 6 weeks(longest i've tried this), when I remove the buds from the plant to trim they are already cured to perfection.
Aqua, after I kept the humidity at 55% for two weeks drying , I realized that the humidity in jar was only 51-52 in curing. Even if I used boveda 62%, the humidity was still difficult to come up.For the bud idk the moisture content. I go by the RH at a stable 62% RH I start curing
Imo youndont want to try to reintroduce moisture to buds... id just seal em up.Aqua, after I kept the humidity at 55% for two weeks drying , I realized that the humidity in jar was only 51-52 in curing. Even if I used boveda 62%, the humidity was still difficult to come up.
Is there a good way to increase the humidity in the jar to about 60%? ,
Thx, ManImo youndont want to try to reintroduce moisture to buds... id just seal em up.
