Hey guys, I have a question about curing. I grew two plants and staggered the harvest by only cutting off a bit at a time and allowing the rest to mature a bit more. Having done that, I became confused as to how long each batch dried. I'm positive that each batch had roughly 5-6 days to dry. Now they're jarred and curing. I have 3 Hygrometers in 3 of the jars and the RH is registering between 57%-59%. Yesterday these same jars registered between 69-71% so I dried them out for a few hours. Should I be worried about the RH being too low? They've been sealed for roughly 12 hours and I remember reading that I won't have an accurate reading until 24 hours have passed. Should I just burp them and put in a Broveda pack or just wait to see the final RH %?
For the first week or two you should open the jars at least 2 times a day so fresh air can get in to aid in the curing process no matter what the humidity reading is. After that I would open them a couple times a week with a Boveda pack in. I'm still learning myself but this is what I have read and trying right now.

Don't forget to rotate the buds. The moisture is at the center of the bud mass. It takes time to equalize and then dump off to the air.
