Okay the best idea with curing is slower is better.. But 7-14 days is the window and Iv'e had to jar yields up after 4-5 days.. Was really hot and that contributed to the drying factor.. Buds should feel slightly dry to the touch and small bud/stems should snap clean off with no strings or fibers attached before going into jars... Weed should not go into jars wet.. Use a large container 1-2 days to even out the cure with your finished buds... Curing doesn't "fix" poorly grown weed.. It makes it better.. But well grown AAA can be smoked right away. AA becomes AAA after curing. This is the concept and idea. You are bringing out terpenes (flavors), increasing potency and allowing for a more even cure.

Your temp and humidity are actually really good, the thing is curing is actually done to preserve your buds for long time storage not actually gain more potency but just preserve what you have already. Hopefully, that answered your question and feel free to ask for advice anytime, and remember ..."Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time"

I'm fairly new to growing, so take my advice with a grain of salt... But from what I've read aiming for a long slow dry is best like 10-14 days. That ensures the most chlorophyll is released from the bud. After that curing does not increase the potency but enhances the terpenes (flavor of your bud) I recently read an article that says the terpenes really start to come out around the 3 to 4 week mark of curing. As for the buds being dry, not much you can do for that... Maybe add a boveda 62% pack to help rehydrate.
