    if the buds are fresh and u cant burp the jars u will return home to a jar full of mold

    When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies, but the pack survives.

    I am very new to this venture but I had the same problem. I harvested then found out I needed to leave town for a week and a half. I ended up drying and then putting into mason jars with 1 small desiccant packet per jar. Everything worked out great. Maybe I got lucky. Let us know how it goes so I can adjust if it ever happens again. Cheers!!!

    Not fresh.
    I will have 1 week to let them hang dry.
    Only after dry I will put on them jars with the boveda.

    you could always go for the paper bag method? Or just take the weed with you

    Maybe jar the buds up after 4 days of drying and start the cure... It's a tough one, leave the jar shut and you will almost certainly get mold but leave them open and you might come home to dust weed.... This is why I don't plan trips around harvest time.

    I guess I will have to rely on its marketing claims and prey for the best.

    From the boveda website:


    Code:
    Curing with Boveda is as simple as it is perfect.
    1. Dry using normal method until stems break (ideally, a tiny bit further)
    2. Jar with Boveda. 4g up to 14g of flower, 8g up to 1 ounce, 60g up to one pound, one 60g per pound.
    3. Cure as long as you like, no burping required.
    4. Enjoy!
    What’s happening while it’s curing?
    Boveda is fine-tuning by adding or removing moisture from the flower to give it the same moisture content throughout the flower. Burping for the sake of moisture isn’t necessary, so burp only if you like!
    We recommend drying a little past ideal so that Boveda’s primary purpose is to give moisture to the flower. That’s because it’s easy to tell when Boveda needs to be replaced – when the entire thing turns into a fairly solid wafer.
    When Boveda’s primary use is to remove excess moisture, it’ll still be soft and impossible to tell when it’s absorbed all it can.

    any update mate? hope it went well, interested to know if boveda works
