Don't use food products to control RH. Just going to introduce bacteria to the jars or get citric acid on your buds, which won't help, either.
Buy Boveda 58 or 62% 2-way RH packs. Do not buy integra boost packs - they suck big fat dicks. An 8-gram size is fine for a quart mason jar. Double up and they last longer. You can re-hydrate them simply by putting in a humid environment above their listed RH level. You don't want them as heavy as possible because you want 2-way control. Once saturated it can't absorb more humidity. Weighing them can suss out 'max' weight. LEave out in a dry area to reduce if needed.
If you smoke your week within a month or 2 of harvest, probably not a big deal. You can slow the loss of your stash by having a 'smoke jar' that you open up constantly, but store the bulk of your weed in a container that remains closed after cure except to refill the smoke jar. If you feel it dries out too much, get some 2-way humidity control packs.
What you smell is what has already been lost from the plant, so when it gives off less of a smell while also in proper conditions, it's losing the smell slower and that is a good thing.
It's not necessarily over-dried but it's trending in that direction. Lots of people like 55% RH for storage. A consistent environment keeps the buds at a consistent moisture level, which reduces degredation and avoids harsher smoke. So, if you buy an appropriately sized Boveda pack, it'll maintain that sealed RH for a long time without worry.
