Ive been curing my harvest now for 4 days. The conditoons of the area, which os my best option, is 70degrees farenheit and 70% RH. How much longer ahould i wait before jarring? Im thinkin 1 more day, they feel a little damp, and sticky

at 70%RH you will be waiting for another 5 days minimum, you need that stalk to snap like a chicken leg

This, you want the stems to snap before placing in any jars. Be patient it'll he worth it in the end

At 80f 70%rh it takes me 7-15 days depending on the quality of the plant and how it was harvested. When the outside of the bud doesnt feel damp anymore, crack open the bud, if it is wet feeling let her dry out a few more days. If it is sticky and bright you may begin curing.

If any part of the plant becomes dry you need to jar. It cant cure with closed stomata.

I would never judge by stems

I would rather have dry bud rather than moldy bud. Boveda bags are worth reading about.

dont wait for them to snap before you jar them, ive always followed that and its some tastysmoothness at the end of it all. and boveda bags are meant to stabilize the humidity not lower it. if you put no care into it, youll taste and see it.
