Sorry to bump an old thread, but this is on-topic...
Folllowing, let's say, 5-9days of hanging to dry, if you were finishing drying in paper bags, how dry do you want the stems to be before the buds are placed in the paper bag?
Obviously the larger stems will still bend some, but should buds be able to break off the larger stem that they are still attached to or should these smaller stems still have some give as well? (not the tiny popcorn buds here).
RH is about 50-57 most of the time. Temperature is fairly steady at 68-73F.
Now, I have done this before with success; I am not worried about mold or messing anythig up too bad, I just respect the point-of-view of the cultivators here.

I appreciate the help, but that link is pretty basic information. I am just looking to fine-tune my process some. Just wondering what growers here thought.

Is anyone in the forums using a hygrometer in there curing/storage jars like so many of the newer growers are into on Icmag?
I know it's not necessary, I think Coda's post above is the perfect set of instructions, and I've cured successfully before, but I am definately interested to know if anyone here is using these during curing.

coda said: I've considered it. I read a great thread on curing somewhere (I'll have to dig it up) where the guy used a small hygrometer in each of his quart jars as a way to aid in getting the right amount of moisture for curing.
If I can find the hygromters I'll most likely be trying that method out with a jar next grow to see what happens. Personally I think it's an awesome idea if it works as well as claimed.
Exactly. And what Iam interested in specifically is knowing/monitoring exactly when I can leave the quart jar lid closed and stop opening it daily.

Yeah, that one. And they swear up and down that that specific model they reference tends to be accurate. ~P~
