... lose the lumber and keep only the buds...
same here. from racks to paper bags and then airtight storage.
... lose the lumber and keep only the buds...
So i removed the buds from the stems for the past couple days. They feel slightly crisp on the outside but still sticky from the trichs, should i paper bag them or wait another day? I dont think i could jar them yet as theres still quite a bit of moisture in the buds. Or would i just burp them more frequently?
Speaking of burping. I know the point of burping your jars or containers, but is there a said amount of time you leave the lids off or do you open it and quickly seal it again? Hence burping. Lol never fully understood how to do this.
Nice looking bud there Sugs, well done:thumright:
agreeNot arguin with anyone's methods, we all live in different environments, but IMO, if ya have to burp the jars 3-4 times a day for 20 minutes, it prolly wasn't ready to go in jars.
To each their own.

that's why i like "burping" in paper bags. moist nugs in airtight containers is a no-no.
I do it for xtra precaution on the mold ...just the anal meNot arguin with anyone's methods, we all live in different environments, but IMO, if ya have to burp the jars 3-4 times a day for 20 minutes, it prolly wasn't ready to go in jars.

If feeling vey moist it still to early let them crisp agin and redo .Mine are in jars at this point. They were slightly crispy but still spongey when i jarred them. I open them once a day and the lost their crispness and regained their moist feel again. Does this mean im on the right track by drying the outsides of the bud then when they get jarred again they are pulling moisture from the center of the buds?
Buy some Boveda brand humidity packs. They contain a gel that can increase or decrease humidity (in a jar) until it reaches a predetermined humidity percentage.
10-15$ spent for a 10 pack of these and you may never look back.
Let us know if you try them.
