Anything that seals completely and doesnt "breath"
A lot of people either have solid color containers, or cure in dark place, so no light hits the nugs.

its just not drying evenly. I noticed that the drying process can be very specific to the nugs you harvested. Sounds like they dried on the outside and too much air is moving by for the moisture to even out fast enough. yes, turn off one of the fans, and check on them again in a few hours. The idea is to fill the space with dryer air, the buds let out the moisture at a nice even rate, and as the RH starts to rise above 50% or so, the fan kicks on and air gets replaced with dryer air... something like that... sorry for the half assed response.

and dude, scientifically my box replaces its air at almost 20x per minute, the ventilation in there is absolutely wicked. i think thats my problem. and ideal RH humidity during drying i did a bunch of reading is like 45-55%. and RT in between 70-80f. i just have to believe my fans are the problem.... to much vent, not enough weed LOL

Toss it in jars asap, leave it there for 12 hrs or around there and check it to see if the moisture has come back to it. It should. Depending how damp it is in a day will determine how long you burp your jar, if its real moist leave the jar open for like an hour or even take it back out to dry more. I dont know who said dry it with 10% humidity or have three fans on it but that was bad advice BTW. You want it to dry slowly. Not fast. Burp your jars according to the moisture that comes out when theve sat in there for a bit. If theyre damp, burp for an hour every day, if theyre dry just replace the stale air and reseal. Youll be fine

okay im ready to take them down right now and cut em up off the stems, thing is no jars - just food grade tupperware (is this okay) ill leave em sealed for 12 hours, open er up.. and see how she is.. depend on how wet it still is .. ill have to determine a time to keep the jars open once a day? so it can be from 15min-1 hour im assuming? soorry just collecting all the advice in one. ouu okay im gunna do this now, just lemme knowo about the tupperware, as this is all i have.. i spent 2 hours walking around a 3 km radius in my neighbourhood... no stores sells glass jars or mason jars that i need... yea unbelievable

Yup, tupperwares fine. Lightly squeeze it to check for moisture. It should come back and it might not have been ready for jars so you just open er up and let it dry more if this is the case. You just dont want it to go mouldy so dont leave it to long if its still damp.
