Is there any other way to check, whether your buds are dry or not other than snapping?

If they're dry enough for the stems to snap they should go into jars mate.

I grew 6 purple haze auto plants. When the time came to harvest, I chopped them down and hung them on the clothing rack. Took about 5 days to dry at 19 degree temps and 50% RH. Been curing for a week or so. I would take all the buds out of the glass jars and let them dry in cat litter tray for 1 hour, twice a day for 3 days, then once a day for an hour, for 3 days. Now, they remain in the jars and I only open them for 15 mins a day. Gave it to a friend to try and she said its some of the best stuff she ever smoked. But most importantly, I read that while you should wait for the stems to snap, yes, but it is better to err on the side of the bud being a tiny bit moist then ridiculously dry as you may well screw your curing process. This was my very first grow, so anyone saying that its the best they've smoked is a ridiculous accomplishment for me.
