Curing smells, grass smell a few days into curing

First harvest of auto NL was hung to dry for 10 days and It was trimmed and put into a jar with a temp/ humid gauge and two boveda 62 packs (1 ounce). It’s been curing for two days and it now smells like fresh cut grass again. Do I just keep burping and this is just the process?

Looks like the humidity in the jar is correct. As long as you are not going way past that point in the jar then continue this routine: Week one: Burp twice a day, morning and evening. Week 2-3: Burp once daily. Week 4 - 6 a few days in between to aim for two - three times that week. I also take my bud out during the first week for about 15 min once a day. This is my evening routine. The grass smell can come and go, it’s not the end of the world and typically means it needs a bit more time outside the jar to dry. That’s why during the first week I keep it out for a little bit. My RH in my place is roughly 45% so it helps during that first week. Hope this helps.

i let my harvest cure for at least a month before tasting... after harvest i fill my 1l glass jar roughly half... the first week or two i burp the glasses morning and evening. after the first two weeks i'll rearange the content of the jars so they are filled 2/3 and from then on i only burp them ones daily. after they have been curring for a month ill only open the jars to smoke or for show and tell 👽 happy curring and hopefully even happier smoking... no weed feels better smoking than the weed you made yourself 😍

Looks like you asked this question twice? or GD is erroring out. growdiaries.com/grow-questions/67691-curing-smells-grass-smell-a-few-days-into-curing growdiaries.com/grow-questions/67689-curing-smells-grass-smell-a-few-days-into-curing Might want to take it out and dry a bit more. Grassy smell could be from wet not dry enough or weed that was dried in a hot environment and its lot its terpenes. Grass is not the worst, its when it starts to smell like cat pee or ammonia you need to air it out and dry it more. Should be burping one or twice a day first week, then once every 2-3 days for weeks 2-3 and once a week for weeks 4-6. should be fine after that to burp whenever you go in an get some to smoke, or once a month. whatever comes first. When I burp mine I force air into the jar using a old squeeze bottle. or air pump with a tube. I like to cure for min 3 months. Good Luck!
