1st time user of Grove Bags, just got done trimming, and Bud moisture content is averaging 10%. In the Grove Bag, the buds are kinda clumping together, my question or concern is due to the clumping, will that leave me with a possibility of mold forming? Should I spread the buds out to dry a little more? Is there an ideal moisture content for the buds for the Grove Bags?
Just dry it like you would if you was putting it in jar . The Grove Bags are designed to control humidity in the bag to prevent mold and the need to burp em. I’ve been using them for a year now without any problems or concerns.
If curing in a jar, I would let it go as is, clumping never bothered me, as each day I would burp the jars and make sure I moved the buds a little to make sure none were stuck together.
The Grave Bags are supposed to take care of that, so your saying just let it go, and it should be fine?
Exactly that!!! Best thing since sliced bread
I use grove bags and at your % you’ll be fine. They do clump together but will transfer in and out the humidity needed as a whole. I keep mine in a cool dark closet and after a few months of ignoring them I get an incredibly smooth smoke consistently without the headache of jar burping which is how I started.
I second @Fieldofdreams
I bag them between 10-12% which is about 58-62%rh with a mini hygrometer in the bag…perfect for a cure…then heat seal them…then don’t touch them for at least a month…2 or more is better.

I like the grove bags, been using them 2 years now, but their customer service sucks. Sent them two emails asking questions and not a single response.
