If you have to cut it off the stem, its too wet for jars imo. Brown paper bags are your friend.
the reason was the humidity in the room was down in the 40's and the outside was feeling really dry i will take them out

Thats why after a few days you put them in bag. Open and turn every day until the bud breaks off. Then its ready to jar.

Yeah its really hard to advise when Im not there to touch the product. Its kind of a feel thing. One persons "dry" might be another persons "still a bit wet" so just going off pics and descriptions is kind of difficult. Those Boveda bags kick ass they do help keep a target percentage I use them all the time. They should help for sure.

The old grocery store brown bags are best. Cut to length and don't jar until they snap off.

i really think it got to dry the other night you wouldnt need to cut it to roll it just crumble it with your fingers but the stems were still moist . so i went ahead and put it in jars i put a hygrometer in one of the jars rh was 44 rh after 3 hours i will post pics later i got 2.5 oz off of 1 autoflower

So I put this lol bit in a jar after we talked and this is what my hygrometer says View attachment 1056724
If that is a sample of what you have hanging then you've nailed it.

Personally i like to start the cure a little higher, say 65 to 66 using two or three of those cheap Chinese things. I have quite a bit sitting in cvaults from harvest 6 weeks ago sitting at 62 to 64% with no boveda.

You can start with high humidity and bring it down but you can't bring it up.
