    depends how much you have overdried as boveda wont really put moisture back in to your buds, whats the rh reading in the jars??

    this is the weird thing its reading as 70 but the buds are dryer than i would normally dry them to. have tried another meter and that says the same.
    is it a case of ive overdried the outside but the inner is still wet?
    cheers

    The outside part of your bud may be dry but the inner seciton is still retaining moisture. If you keep your bud in a kilner jar and monitor the situation the bud will cure and the moisture content will even out. I would use the 62% Boveda sachets in the Kilner jars.

    I used the bovida packs the first time, haven't used them since and tbh I don't notice the difference as long as it's dried correctly

    just keep on burping, if it's to dry I've heard of adding a cabbage or lettuce leaf to jar to bring humidity up

    Overdried mine last time (56%) tried the iceberg lettuce method, didn't make much difference but if your jars are reading 70% your bud aint dry!

    The boveda packs put moisture in aswell as sucking moisture in.
    So yes get some 62% ones and along with the moisture left in the buds
    They should get right after a cuple days.jus leave the jars shut and let
    The buds sweat a little bit.jus burp a cuple times a day for a short time
    Just to change the air till you get the packs.then do the same once you've got
    Them.
