Dry phase
Target dry environment shown: around 60 F, 57 to 60 percent humidity, dark space and gentle airflow.
Hang whole branches or larger stems and keep direct fan blast off the flowers.
Dry time is listed as roughly 7 to 14 days.
The poster says material is ready when small stems snap instead of bend and the outside feels dry while the inside is still slightly spongy.
Cure phase
Use mason jars filled to around 3/4 full, or food-grade mylar bags kept cool and dark.
Minimum cure time shown is 2 to 4 weeks.
Week 1
open daily to release excess moisture
Week 2
open every other day
Weeks 3 and beyond
burp every 3 to 7 days or as needed based on moisture
Storage phase
Best long-term storage conditions shown
around 60 F, 55 to 62 percent humidity, darkness and airtight containers
Storage options listed
glass jars, food-grade mylar bags and vacuum containers
A hygrometer is recommended to keep humidity in the ideal range.
Common mistakes and rehydration
Mistakes listed
drying too fast, not burping jars, exposing material to light or heat, jarring too wet and inconsistent curing
If material becomes too dry, the poster suggests a 58 to 62 percent humidity pack in the jar overnight without direct contact to the buds.
Fresh leaf method
add a small clean fresh leaf to the jar and remove once the flowers feel right, usually after 1 to 2 hours
The main message on the poster is to move slowly and patiently from dry through cure.
