Lol its so funny how litterally everyone reccomends flushing on this website when there's no scientific backing that it actually does anything. Personally i would do some google research for scientific studies that have done large scale tests kn flushing like the one i linked in my answer. Dont bother looking at other growers talking about flushing because they arent actually doing proper studies with proper testing of their buds or a large enough scale to provide accurate results.
Everything ive ever read from people doing actual testing points towards flushing being a pointless bro science, not a factual beneficial process.
What makes the absolute biggest difference in final bud quality is your dry and cure. You want to dry nice and slowly, preferably taking 7-14 days to get dry enough to jar. If you dry faster than 7 days, quality will suffer as the chlorophyll hasnt had enough time to properly break down. Once they are jarred you want to make sure they fall between 56%-62% humidity in the jar. If you are above 62% burp the jars daily for like 30-45 mins until you are below 62%.
If you are already between 56%-62% then you are in the sweet spot and you just need to burp every few days for 30 sec just to het rid of stale air. Doing that once 3-4 weeks has passed you dont need to burp the jars nearly as much and the bud is ready to consume.
If you are below 56% then unfortunately the cure has stopped and you will not be able to start it back up even if you reintroduce moisture. The weed will still get you high and smoke well, but its just not gonna taste as good as it could have.
Either way, good luck with your grow!
