Yes, maybe too dry. It smells great. No hay smell. I was planning on burping daily, although I've heard some old times say if R.H. is good seal it for a week. Then burb. Dunno. I'm learning.

If no one on here has done it that way before, then I'll keep burping daily. I was just concerned because some of the buds seem really too dry. Brittle to the tough. Then others bot so much. I hope to get good at the curing process. So was just curious about the old timers that seal it for a week or so. Then pop that funk. Thanks for the advice, as always.

In my opinion you dried to fast and are some how trying to bring moisture back
Slow and low is best in drying cause curing won’t work once the weed is fully dried
Note I said my opinion
To many sensitive folks if I don’t wear mittens

Doesnt seem over dried when I put in my grinder though. So that makes me feel good. I was afraid the fan (on low) blowing underneath the colas over dried them. Yet It smokes & tastes soooo fucking good. *Not cured yet. Although I've been enjoying the shittt out of it. I feel it's at a good spot right now. I just dont want to mess that up. & yes, I cant get my house under 70 really. Maybe 69 at lowest. & R.H. stays around 55% around these parts. So I'm working with what I have. Thanks for the reply.

Air movement while important and should be never be near plants
Just passing thru is better for a slow dry and I am a convert to hanging plants I trimmed till dry
Smell and taste is off the charts this way

I say this in confidence because I had grave I had Gray mold with my last harvest last harvest so I made sure I increased my air flow with intake fans and several more fans then fuckers are blowing around in there now and I have hepa air filters with UV light scrubbing the air blowing into my tents. So I'm trying to stay on top of that and be in very cautious and have inspected all the buds every inch of the way everything seems good for now.

Scrubbing tent down with part hydrogen peroxide between grows. Keeping grow room clean as shitt. I've bleached & H.P. the shitt out of everything after the Gray Mold issue. Ra ra ra.

You’re fine. Burp or don’t burp it’s up to you. One thing is your RH meter may not be that accurate. I have several cigar humidor ones and a bunch of those cheap ones. At higher Rh, 55 and above, my cheapies are totally inaccurate. So if I’m reading 60 Rh on the cheap ones my cigar units may be reading 5 or 6 % higher.
