Tips to Successfully Dry and Cure Your Cannabis Buds

With this meter, I can read around 9% in "wood" mode, and be dialed in pretty good for a cure at 61% RH in the CureTubes.
I have one of these moisture meters for firewood. Do you stick the probes in the stem? Or aim for a dense section of flower? As I type this, it occurs to me it'd be tough to get a reading off flower but curious about your method.. thanks.

Stick the probes directly into the colas. Clean the probes every now and then with ISO... otherwise it can give false readings when dank stickiness starts building up on them.

It really is as simple as maintaining a 60f 60rh environment and leaving things alone for a couple weeks. I’m picking up lumber moisture meter before next harvest to really get it dialed.
This is what I am trying for my first try.

I'm using a thermo electric wine cooler with inkbird humidity controller and dehumidifier. So far I have been able to keep temps Between 56-60f with the RH between 55-60 . I'm not going to open the cooler until I hit at least 1.5 weeks . From what I have read on the uk420 wine cooler thread I could leave it like this until I'm ready to jar them.

This first grow is all for learning . So if the bud doesn't come out good I will try the old school way next go around. Fingers Crossed.
