i won't argue that a longer, slower dry will help. but the fact is if your buds lost all their smell you probably harvested too early.

i've dried nugs in 3-4 days, 75F 50% humidity. and they came out perfect.

imo the dry/cure is important but the grow is also relevant.

Nothing will fix bud harvested too soon. I try and let mine go a week or more after I think they're ready.

Hay isn't from chlorophyll, its from shitty fiber crops. What bullshit hydro nutes did you use?

Have you ever sautéed some bell peppers and got that hay smell? Did they cure them wrong? Lol no, the store just bought a cheap ass batch of hydro mersh peppers. Curing isn't complicated at all when you grow the shit right. If all you care about is yield then why are you even worried about quality? There's a tradeoff. I think Cannabis growers need to accept this. You ain't gonna grow primo herb with some bullshit inputs.

Have you trimmed already? I trim fan leaves, then wait for the sugar leaves to dry good. When you lightly squeeze them, you should still feel the softer buds under the crispy sugar leaves. The stems will almost crack but more of a sharp bend. I'll cut all buds into a 3.5 gallon tote & put the lid on. Each day I'll stir the buds with my hand, feeling how much moisture is still there. I'll leave top off, if too much or replace the top till the next day. After buds are where i want them, I'll jar them. I can feel the moisture, in a tote, better than in a jar. This is a non-professional practice but thats what works for me. Curing is a art. You will need moisture to cure!
I do same with cardboard box or shoe box’s buck into the. And move bottom nugs to top daily for another 5- day n it turkey bag time
