Your hydrometer may be off if its in an air tight container and seems dry it shouldn't be at 65% humidity in there try a boveda humidity pack i would get the 58% 2 way but it depends on your preferences. Also try comparing your jar hygrometer to the one you use in your grow and see if there is a gap

Get a sheet or two of kitchen roll, wet it, ring it out and put it in with the buds to rehydrate them.

You were right it was off by 18% on the high end. Got 10 news ones an they all indicate the same. It was down to 50% even 48% in some. Rehydrated all of it to 65%

Once you reach 55% the cure is over.
But w your meters being off, maybe your ok to continue‍♂.
Does it smell like hay/grass cuttings?

Just curious what hydrometers did you end up going with that were more accurate? seems a lot of the small ones are cheap junk that I've had experience with. But glad you got that figured out at least you're bud is smelling good That's the most important thing
