I have some in Masons from a few years ago But switched to Groves because the masons were more expensive and bulkyā¦and Grove results from other growers got me there!..Iām happy so far with grovesā¦I just put a fan leaf from one of my plants and that re hydrates them .

A couple Quick questions for you and the potato trick.
A. At what number range do you start thinking you need to put a potato in there?
B. How big of a potato chunk are you putting in a 1/4 lb bag? Or whatever size bag you use.
C. How long are you leaving said potato in the bag?

I dont pay that much attention. Hmmmm if it grts into the low to mid 50Rh i might slice off a piece the size of a small river flat stone (A QUARTER) I take it out when the Rh improves or when all shriveled up and replace if necessary.

Is it safe to put weed into grove bags if RH is 63? I always used mason jars , I hung my weed itās been hanging for 7 days now ,Iām keeping room as close to 60/60 as possible. Trimmed a branch yesterday and itās sticky and I put it in a jar with a H meter for a few hours and it was reading 63 RH. I donāt have a wood moisture meter and really donāt want to spend the cash for one. Buds are not dense so I donāt believe I would get a honest reading anyway.
Question would it be ok to put in grove bags at this time ? The small sugar leave on the bud are still wet and gum up the Scissors

Brown bag sweating for a couple of days with RH meter will confirm 63%RH good and bag available.
Should be good in bag, but bag may be slow if not really at 63%
Bag slower than burped jar for RH changing.

I have them in a brown lunch bag and another brown bag over the top of them and back in the room that Iām trying to keep 60/60 in. So you agree ?
I think I would feel more comfortable if the rh was 55- 60

First time grower and getting ready to harvest. Was curious what unit you are using to test your buds to determine moisture level ? Thanks in advance!!

fingers feel the buds.
Canāt do finger temp on a steak, but buds ānot coolā (lacking heat).
Small buds under 6 inches easier to manage and bag stuff.
Snap sound test also.
I can live with 63+/- 5 (burp down or add fresh to hit target).

Buds are "coolā to the touch, when still wet (above 70%RH).
below 70%RH, they are not āwetā or cool, to the touch.
RH sensors for measuring, also used.
