Should I put my harvest into jars insted of hanging? I harvested 2 days ago and my humidity right now is between 60-70% with fan and dehumidifier. I wonder if the buds would be better in jars with 50% humidity packet. I'm afraid they will mold hanging in the house. Rain all wk.

High humidity isnt such a bad thing because it will help dry your buds slower, slower dry and slower cure means higher quality. Eventually they will dry anyway, but you're lucky to have a great environment for that. you want to dry them with as little boveda and other stuff like that as possible. one trick i learned with Boveda that you might like is that you dont really need to burp your jars if you use boveda based on their chemistry, just add the buds the humidity packs and close the jar, checking on it once a week if you want. Easy peezy ! hope this helps ! 🚀

No you shouldn't ... If you pull down your buds before the smallest stems snap, you'll find they tend to be too wet once you put them in jars, so you'll end up having to dry them more anyway. But if you can find a stem that snaps, it's better to take buds down too early since it's a lot easier to take water away than add it back. Hopefully I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.

Hey! If you have high humidity in your house putting wet buds in jars won't help even if you have a humidity pack. Most likely is mold will appear. I suggest you leave them hanging, increase air circulation without hitting them directly with a fan. If you have big buds then try to cut them down to decrease possibility of mold. If your buds are dry to the touch in two days which I doubt if you have that high of humidity. But if they are then you can try to jar them and burp a few times a day. Hope this helped. Good luck and Happy harvest!
