Should I let these dry out some more? I dried for 8 almost 9 days and then jarred them and put boveda 62s in. But the new hygrometers I got are still above 62%. They all read at the moment 71° and rh reads 65%, 66%, and 67%.
Still too wet or?

so before you put the boveda pacs in there the humidity was low? or was humidity high and you put boveda pacs in there?

You put the bovedas in when your buds were not “ jar stable “.
8 or 9 days isn’t quite enough time. Bovedas should be introduced as a “ long term stability pack “ … they do not cure your buds.
They are meant to “ hold “ your already stable product at your preferred RH level.

The hygrometers in the jars went 62 to 64% rh with boveda 62s in them alone, so they read fine, they must have a little moisture left in them

I’ve tried bovedas in cure and think they mess up smell and flavor. I think there only good to revive dispensary flower.

Totally agree. My cures were better before and after that experiment. They also end up smelling like ash trays.

I left the jars empty overnight except with the hygrometers and the bovedas and the hygrometers now read 64%, 66%, 66%. I'm not really sure what that means :/

Last year my batch came out smelling fire with bovedas in them. I've read mixed reviews on people saying these things but they work just fine for me.

I would give them 24 hours. In my experience, 24 hours is about where hygrometers really stabilize when testing them.
But, as of right now you're 64 is off about 3% and you're 66 is off about 6%.
