My latest grow (Durban Poison Auto) dried for 10 days and has been curing (in C-Vaults) for 16 days. I checked it last night by rolling a joint (actually 2) and it wouldn't stay lit and the ash was black. The RH is 60%. I did everything the same as my previous grows. Can I do anything to save the harvest, if so, what? Or should I just count it as a loss and make concentrates and edibles with it? Any ideas as to the cause of the black ash?

Smoke it in a bowl. I don't do joints but friends have said to roll loose ones if the bud doesn't burn too well.
I've had similar situations. The bud clogs up the grinder and doesn't stay lit. You just have to work with it or look to concentrates, as you mentioned.
When I get black ash it's because it still has some burning to do.Open to suggestions.

16 days is not that long in cure. I wait 30 days after an 10-14 day dry at 60/60. 3-6 months is ideal in my opinion but ya gotta have weed in the mean time. It’s definitely not time to scrap it be patient.
Burp the jars every couple days hold it between 55&62/% and give it some time.
The black/grey ash thing I think has been largely debunked at this point, not staying lit is a drag but I’ve had that problem in the past and just smoked through it
