Does this curing setup look alright?

These jars are around a foot tall and around 70% full. Is airing the jars out twice for 20 mins a day good? What yield do you think this is around?

Can't really say at yield. Your loose trim makes it impossible. If trim was tight and buds looked rock hard I would guess 75g per qt jar. Loose looking 28g per qt jar.

70 is flirting with danger in those enormous jars. I would of used non airtight containers (tree dollar)with hygrometer in them for couple of days, popping lids when it goes over 65, works perfect and no steal flavor and lazy humipaks. ;-)

She never said humidity was 70% she said jars were 70% full. Now to OP as long as you dry it properly opening jars twice a day will work fine. I have never used a boveda pack and my cure is always great

Greetings, kinda like these https://www.dollartree.com/Plastic-Storage-Boxes-with-Lids/p330495/index.pro but clear with white tops. But the same. Easiest method I know with out jamming them in jars right off the top.
Couple of days in those first, then jars and I never have an issue.

Guy on YouTube named Chester copperpot uses this method, his product is pretty decent even though I haven't talked to him in a grip.

Just watched some of the vid link'd above. I would suggest using a better hygrometer than the one found in a pet store. The Caliber was suggested for a very good reason; it won't screw up the process with erroneous readings. At the very least, it's best to have one good hygrometer to use as a gauge. Good luck.

Well yeah he's a cheese ball. I use caliber 4 meters or the accurite ones but those barely fit in the jars.
 
After drying a few grows way too fast and also dealing with only a few ounces at a time I opt for hanging for a few days then to the jars with the hygro meter inside.. Honestly, I don't let them get to the point of stems snapping.. This method gives me more control. if humidity in jar is really high then I leave lid off of jar overnight then seal back up and see where I'm at. Repeat as needed until relatively stable humidity then add a Boveda to keep it fresh.
