Dank: I will defer to those with more experience, but my protocol is exactly that and I have been happy with it. Hang dry the whole plant, if possible, them trim and into paper bags for at least 12 (more likely 24) hours. This gives the residual H2O in the center of the bud time to dry out. At about T+12 hours in the bags I pull some from each bag and put into a mason jar with hygrometer to jar test, and every 6-12 hours thereafter until I get 64% RH and then into grove bags.

I have had better cures when I put them into the grove bags with a little higher RH (i.e., 64%) and let it come down to range in the grove bag. I also but a Boost 62 pack in each grove bag as I like to cure and store my bud at slightly higher than 58%RH.

IMHO, YMMV, etc. :smoking:
Yeah that's a lot more detail than I put, our methods seem to be very similar aside from the trim after for me. I've seen a lot others do the same. Definitely don't want to skimp out on the drying part with how easy it is to overdry. Hardest part now that I have a good process down is waiting for it to dry lol

Been very busy this past week especially today later update. Everyone doing well today, not much to report on the tent. The GPs decline has slowed a lot. The Ogreberry is starting to yellow a tad more but nothing I'm worried about. FD seemed to have stopped spotting, at least I hope. MM is still perfect! Great plant so far, even more purple showing today :drool:Thanks for stopping by everyone!

CDLC recieved the final trim today! Dried up a bit faster than the strawberry gorilla. Ended up with 94g of beautiful bud after running it through the bow trimmer. I had a decent amount of trim as well for other stuff but I don't weigh that. Went into a white velvet smooth touch grove bag for curing! Still has that chemically spice smell to it, can't quite put my finger on the exact smell but I'm sure it'll come to me. Will do a final smoke report after a 2-3 week cure. @420Forever I tag you for the cultivator club right?
