    Default Curing in mason jars

    Hi group just wondering if someone can help me out just done my first harvest of two white skunks I cut all the stems off and hang dried for 6 days at about 17c and 56% rh so I have taken them down and been opening jars up every 12hrs and leaving them open for 30mins each day

    I've put a rh reader in one of the mason jars its reading 70% is this to high for day 2?

    Cheers guys

    Yeah, that's a little high

    I would take it all out & dry it for an extra day & put it back in the jars

    Jimmy I tried using those crystal packs that absorb the dampnist. They work great in mason jars. Put them in the jars and only had to burp one time and never looked back. Just another way to do things.

    6 days is real quick, 7-10 is my normal,
    being a little dry is better than still damp,

    when they smell less 'green' they are definitely drying better

    i dont mind puttin mine in jars at 70odd, am little over cautious when it come to jaring,

    i just fill them up after 5-6days of hanging, then is rh high like 70odd etc is just empty them all out on to cardboard or paper leave for another 12-24 hours, jar back up recheck an if still same repeat the process.
    Most i have done it is twice then if am around 65% then that great i just start the burping process nice an slowly till i get around the 60-62% mark
