Just a quick question. Ive done tons of reading but anyhow I'm always full of questions. So my buds have been drying in paper bags for 4 days now. I was wondering if any harm would come from putting them in a jar to see where I can stand on rh.. the buds are all no bigger then golf ball sized and some are smaller.. the buds are starting to seem dry on the outside, basically trying to make sure I don't over dry and kill my chances of a good cure and wouldn't want to hurt the buds by trying to see where I stand with rh, mold is the last thing I'd ever want to see.. btw this is my first harvest and I'm pretty happy with it.. too anyone who takes there time to read or comment on this , many thanks good peoples
 
you can loosely fill a jar w/ bud and a Hygrometer ... 4-6 hrs should answer your question ... if they are high 70+ pull them back out of the jar for more air ...
 
I was wondering how long it would need in the jar to get a good reading thanks mane
 
as the rh of the bud gets lower it takes more time to get an accurate reading ... at this point 4-6 hrs should be enough ....
 
You can follow the "AFN rule of thumb" (at least I learnt it here...) check the rh in your drying place and add 1 day: e.g. Rh is 60% the math would be 6 + 1 = 7 days drying; Rh 30% would be 4 days drying. It works for me!
 
paper bags- i wouldnt go over 4 days without checking. if theyte feeling alittle crispy them jar them now and check.
especially the small buds, big buds another day or so

shoot,just saw this was from tuesday, sorry,hope you jarred them.
