When do i start curing

[NorthernLights#5]

so i chopped on Wednesday was hanging by 2pm in box temp ranges form 68-75 with humidity at 45-55% so my question is at what point should i Jar them up, they are a little crisp on the outer edges but not really dry. PLEASE HELP ME

When they're almost done drying but not quite, the drying process is slowed drasticly by beginning the curing process. The remaining little bit of excess moisture left in the buds is slowly leached out while they cure.

i usually put them in a paper bag for a couple of days after hanging , it helps get the moisture out of them before curing them,hope that helps

I've been drying mine in a homemade drybox, when to my preferred state.......dry but before "crusty" feeling, move to paper bags for 24hrs, then to cure jars, check it every 2-3 hrs to determine how much moisture is "returning"....if more than preferred, back to sack......

you'll want to air dry them.. until their JUST about totally dry. The reason for this.. is you HAVE to leave a little bit of moisture inside the buds and or stems because the curing process needs that moisture in order to properly execute the curing process. If they're totally dried out.. you will not benefit from the cure. In other words, if you have no moisture left.. and you try to cure them... it won't happen.

Good luck!

peace.

like this person said.. leave a little bit of moisture in them. Don't let them dry completely out.

peace.
