High house humidity

Hey all so iv been drying and trying to cure for almost 2 weeks now and have some issues, the RH in my house is like 64% cuz its been pissin rain for a week here, now iv dried my buds as long as i thought was good jarred it up rh is 68 so i took my weed back out for a day, put it back in still 68....put boveda 62s in and theyre only bringing the rh up what can i do?

Stop fussing shit, if it was dry and obtained its taste and flavour before jarring aint nothing going to change much if you jar it then.

Why not wait for it to stop raining and lower humidity if you need some arbitrary number to live by then jar then.

I just dont want it to go moldy in storage.

At this point i could care less about getting this headache of a cure to go i jist dont wanna open up my jar in a week and see everything gone moldy.

If it was dried long enough it wont mold, humidity disent change that.

Thats bad advice. Humidity 100% changes that.

If u hang ‘dried’ buds in 90% humidity room they will absorb that moisture and yes if you jarred it then it woukdnt be good

Try putting a fan blowing on them for like half hour or an hour then re check the bud humidity.

Thanks man this has been a big headache for the last little while lol

No, it wouldnt just be your buds absorbing moisture if moisture was dropping out of the air would it!

Sugest at that point you have bigger problens than moldy bud.

Ok 2hearts so with 68% humidity in my my jars im ok to seal them up for good?

Can you throw an ac in a room and close the door?

Buds have moisture content, under a certain amount they wont mold, its not going to oick up enough in a small jar.

How many days did you dry? If the answer is under two weeks you jarred too early, bud releasing moisture is bad, re dry till it dont say two weeks in total.

A lot dont understand the pros, more than a way you get full understanding.

Yup i will do right now iv got it all back on the drying screen

Ok i understand that under a certain amount of moisture in the bud ot wont get moldy. But my house has literally almost the same amount of humidity in the air as the bud has moisture left inside of it. How can you dru something when literally the rh of the air wont allow it.

Toss them all in a paper bag with a hydrometer roll it closed stir once a day till they are ready to smoke. Then jar.

I like that idea much better

I do the ac method.. run ac in your room and monitor RH (use dry mode if u have it, crank AC down as low as you need to
Empty jars out onto a table or something with surface area and wait an hour and rear, check humidity in the jars after an hour or two and see how much it dropped and repeat until in jarring range

I did what Merlin says last grow. My drying rack filled up so the rest went in paper bags. I put a small hydrometer in and rolled the bag but I had to crack the bags open or rh would be too high. After a few days I closed the bags back up. I had never tried this technique and it worked great.

Holy ffs man. 90% was an extreme example. They will absorb and equalize to whatever the room hunidity is

That’s the way I always dry and cure. Hang dry whole. With or without the fan Leaves on depending on the season until the outsides are crispy 7-10 days then I clip off all the buds and paper bag them in a cool place till they are smokable 10-14 days then trim and jar.
