Overdried bud to 46% for a few days, is it worth using boveda or is it lost?

Had to leave for more than a week and it is dry here. When I jarred my buds, my device shows 46% humidity. They have been like that for 3 or so days. I ordered some boveda 62% packs. Is it worth using them or is the curing completely lost at this point?

I just tape a folded up strip of paper towel to the inside of the lid and add a few drops of water or colloidal silver to keep my bud from drying right out. I like the buds a bit more pliable as I snip off bits for my pipe and don't want it dry enough for a grinder as I never roll joints. When I do my curing right the buds never get dry enough for bits to break off. Left my outdoor harvest hanging too long and it's all dry on the outside but the larger bud are still a bit moist inside. Working good in my little TrimPro Unplugged tho which doesn't work so well with fresh cut bud. 90% is destined for RSO or edibles so just a bit is needed for toking.

Curing is basically done once bud is dry but getting it a bit moister will let it age gracefully.

:peace:

That wouldn’t bother me a bit. I’d just keep on curing, maybe add a little water like @OldMedUser said. I’m sure the Boveda packs will help.
