Makeshift Greenhouse Problems

Have you tried string tied on the bud then a clothing hanger. You might get wet spots.

I thought about that but put them on plates instead because there are so many small-ish buds. I'm checking for wet spots and am turning the buds occasionally to avoid them.

I've been moving the buds from glass jars to paper sacks every day. I'm trying to keep the RH at 65-80 percent. Once the humidity in jars stabilizes to 73-77 percent I'll leave them in the jars and burp as necessary to slowly lower the RH to 70-75 percent for 4 weeks, then slowly decrease to 65-68 percent RH for another 2-4 weeks, then slowly lower RH to 55-60 percent RH for another 2-4 weeks. Then I'll vacuum seal and freeze. Luckily, I'm a very light user and have enough trim buds to provide some Rx relief for a short while.

SIDE NOTE #1: I didn't know buds decreased in size so much as they dry. They're already 20-30 percent smaller than when they were first cut.

SIDE NOTE #2: As these dry and begin to cure, the various strains are beginning to develop their own individual fragrances. When they were first cut they all smelled almost the same.

SIDE NOTE #3: When the RH in the 'tiny buds' jar dropped below 65 percent I added a small piece of banana peel to raise RH. That worked but now the buds all smell like banana peel. I won't do that again... not with banana peel anyway.
