Questions regarding curing and burping

[Bartholomew]

Is it okay to constantly burp jars through out the day as needed? Say 10-20 times. Until the RH stabilizes?
Is curing sped up this way?

My room RH is low so I decided to put the buds in jars after 4 days of drying. The initial RH in jars was 70%+. Now it's 65-68%, keeping jars that are over 64% open right now.

Chefbjy Yes I've read it before numerous times. And I read it again now just in case I might have missed the answer to my questions. Alas the article doesn't answer my questions. It says "at least once a day" which implies that it's okay to burp more than once a day. But is 10-20 times a day too much or not

If the bud feels wet you should leave it open for 2-4 hours if they still feel wet they need to be taken out of the jar and dried more. They shouldn't stick together. If they feel dry after 2-4 hours then close it up. I would then check on them say 16 hours later not keep opening them. They should feel dry not crumbly. The cure zone in rh is okay to go by but it should stabilize. If it keeps rising say after 8 hours then you probably need to dry a little more. Following the guide with no hygrometer myself I go by feel and smell. If it smells more and more like pot you're doing it right. If you smell ammonia it needs to dry more.

I see, Thanks for The insight!

Good luck it should be easier after the first week. The guide helped me a lot.

I Agree with Chefbjy
If they are too moist then keep them open or dump them out and let them dry a little bit.
I don't think there is any issue with repeatedly opening the jars, IF the RH is too high. But it would be better to get them down to 62- 65% and then jar them up.

Thanks guys.
The curing process is a bit hard to get your head around. I left them in open jars over night, didnt want to dry them too quickly because room RH is low. Now stable 61-67%.
