hey man ! the home stretch is the most important thing, curing is critical because it's the process where the cannabis' chemicals turn into THC. First of all - no light during the chop + cure ! very important as the light damages the terpenes (flavour) and reduces the THC produced during the cure. You want to time it just right, with your relatively low RH you want to chop 2 days after the last watering , hang the plant whole probably anywhere between 5 to 7 days, or until the little popcorn buds down the branch snap off audibly. Paper bags and drying racks put thing at risk of mold and kind of mush the buds. air circulation while drying is good, but accelerates the drying and that's actually not great, maybe less air circulation than normal, and certainly not directly pointed at the plant. Basically you want the slowest possible drying (the coffeeshops dry for 2 weeks !) , that ideally means low temperatures of 16-17°C and a high RH or 60%. for home growers like us we're actually able to get tip top results by jarring them. that means manicuring the buds so they look nice and putting them in mason jars. I use miron glass jars because i noticed a very positive results in how the trykes dry when inside those. Remember two important things : the cure starts immediately at the chop and the cure ends when the buds reach 50% humidity. To keep the humidity up you can use boveda packs, some folks dont like it, but i didn t ever notice anything bad with them. Anyway once jarred you want to "inspect" the weed daily, removing it completely from the jar, having a look-see and jarring them back up. Second week i put the bovedas in and inspect them daily. Third week i inspect them twice or three times that week, fourth week to sixth week i only inspect them weekly. Does a longer cure help ? oh yes it does. Can it go longer than six weeks... theoretically yes, but i cant seem to make my stash last that long lol. Hope this helps bro ! 🚀
