It’s a matter of taste. I happen to like 60. Some prefer 55 or 50.
A reasonable range.

The thing here that RH can be out of control. It does affect the taste I do agree. To dry burns it up too fast. It really affects it. The humidity is very high where I live. I’ve seen those little packets and stuff. It’s always good talking to you.

My humidity fluctuates drastically with the weather so the only way it works for me is to dry in a small space that I control. Otherwise it would be all over the place.
Cheers man🤟

I agree 60 temp and 60% humidity 12/14 days seal and burp as needed .

Have i been doing this wrong shooting for 62%

Exactly what I do. My brother in law bought some burp lids and gave them to me to try. I love them. Don’t know if I would actually pay for them, but they do work well.

How long do you let the plants hang with 60% RH and 60 degree environment?
I just chopped my plants and was considering leaving the plants in there for an entire month of curing before putting them in jars.

I hang my plants at 60% and while a month is a long time it does give you some flexibility about when to break them down. I’ll usually go 10-14ish days.

I go 14 days then bag and cure.

I’m with @Foreigner and @ShiskaberrySavior I hang two or three weeks but I also start them at 65 and then turn down from there once they hold at that to 60 for the last week. Then into big ass Grove bags, a whole plant in each one.

Its the best place to start. I have used this technique as well this Year and the Buds and Final cure have never been better. (38 plants worth) ~ 62% rh 17c, only one plant hung less than 14 days

It depends on the bud size, smaller size buds seem to be dry enough in a week, bigger buds can take longer, maybe 2 weeks.
Go by the snap test, that will get you there.

Congrats. I find absolutely no scientific reason to leave buds in open stagnant air for 2 weeks.
My method is dry bud, use humidity and natural process to cure inside a jar ideally without needing to burp around 60% rh.
GYOweed, Who said anything about “stagnant air” ?
Vents are open, small fan inside moving air indirectly. A/C exhausting outside when running. RH as needed.

The difference between curing in a jar at 60 and curing in a room at 60 is nil.
And here I thought mine would be ready hanging for 2 weeks at around 60-63 rh. I have a fan, and the room itself is at 65 degrees. How ironic that it’s the perfect temp right now. Wish i had more to dry! Next time, next time…hehe

There’s less oxygen in a jar.
It’s also why i dont see a point of curing in a room seems less space efficient.
I have argued before that a little oxidation is perhaps desirable.
I have a set and forget and leave as long as I feel like drying chamber. How high maintenance is yours?

Hang dry in closet.
Rh is usually 30-40 indoors.
4-6 days until even larger stems snap/i can easly brush everything off with with a silcone brush and jar with rh meter. Check next day and hydrate until about 60-62 rh in jar.
Ideally size to fill the jar completely.
