I heard if u put lettuce, orange peels, or bread in jar with dry buds it will add moisture is that accurate and if so how long?

It could also cause mold sticking fruit in there. I'm sure fruit is covered in mold spores from other rotten fruit it was around. I would get some humidipaks, or just use a little bowl of water with the bud in a Tupperware container to raise the humidity... That wouldn't be real safe though. Humidipaks would probably be best for this.
 
yeah no bread dude that's for tobacco in jail :-) also lettuce would wilt and get all kinds of gross, an orange or a lemon peel will freshen your weeds moisture content but knowing and watching it is important, as trying to instruct how much peel against how much weed factoring in what the present moisture content is - would be just silly

A child trying to rip off prospective buyers or a grower who screwed up their cure....either way I advise you don't do that
 
So is this a pretty good idea or should i just leave it just trying to figure out the best solution i seen a lot of good reviews for lettuce

Bread or lettuce or anything else isn't going to make your buds mold.
Mold spores are constantly floating in the air, all the time.
The easiest thing to re-moisten your buds is to just put a couple drops of water in your mason jar, and seal it up.
If you added to much water, go back to square one of your cure. Purge your mason jars for 15 minutes everyday until your buds have the moisture you want in them.

The lettuce trick has been around since I first saw it in the '80s, I'm sure it was around before that. Don't leave it in longer than overnight, then remove the lettuce. Do not keep the lettuce in longer than 24 hours and only use a piece not the whole head lol. Try it with a small amount and see how it goes.

and there you have it...good info...you just don't leave it in the jar...this has been around for ever...in the past I always used a chunk of carrot with the same results

I usually will take a piece of toilet paper and get it wet roll it into a ball and put in with my buds. But usually if I do that its like maybe only a couple of bowls worth.

I used to get a zp a week, mids. I got one of those larger 7 day pill dispensary things, separated the weed by day, and kept it in a gallon ziploc with a fresh strawberry, replaced every day, to every 12 hours depending on conditions.
