I saw that if I put my fresh buds in mason jars they will cure and dry out within a week

Is that true or do I have to take the long route and hang them up somewhere for like two weeks


I just don't see how putting them in a container will dry them out just saying


But then again I haven't heavily looked up curing really

OK.. you can't just put them in jars or they will mold aND WILL NEVER DRY IN A WEEK. Hang them for about 4-5 days then throw them in tupperware or jars opening the jars for 20-3- mins 3 times a day for the first week after drying. then you should be able to only open the once aweek or so. It only takes about a week before it's really smokable, but really can be tried ater 3-4 days if your desperate. But don't just put them in jars please dry em 1st

Dry them till the stems bend but not snap. the outside of the vbud should have a slight crisp. Sounding similar to hay, but you should still feel a soft bud when slightly touched. that's when you start cure. you should noticed a moist bud the 1st time you burp the jars. and should start getting a consistency over the next few days. after that your in the clear prettyy much just depends on your patience will depend on how much stronger it gets
