Hang drying after 5 days...

So I just harvested my Double Blueberry and Vanilla Kush, sadly pruning showed the kush was premature but oh well hopefully more of a "high" smoke then. Anyways I put the Colas and big buds in a cardboard box hanging from string and all the other buds in paper bags. The big buds on the strings are crunchy on the outside and the hairs have turned crispy, needless to say i'm thinking the outside is drying faster than the inside. I've been bending the stems and they still don't "snap", should i put them in jars anyways?

the paper bag buds are still a bit soft which makes me think thats better since i always hear drying longer = better smoke.

so is it normal for the hang drying big buds to become crispy and dry on the outside so quick?

first harvest so any help is appreciated thnx

also once i put them in jars, i burp them how many times a day for how long? and this process lasts only a week right? then you just leave them in jars with no burping?

stickies are awesome.

do the stems bend easily, or is there some resistance/cracking.

It's natural for the outside of the buds to dry faster, it'll all even out in the cure.

If the outside of the buds is dry/crispy i would jar 'em up and burp for 5-10 minutes once a day for a week, then go to once every two or three for another week or two.

You will know when they are nice and cured.
