HELP! Problems with drying and curing

Because of the temperature (10 ~ 15 seconds), I have harvested the flowers after harvesting for 20 days, they are still soft, they grow well, and I can be sure that it is the correct harvest time! I think it was because my original purpose was (I allowed the flowers to dry in the net after fine sectioning, the surface was no longer too sticky, but it was still heavy when I filled the jar to cure) I wondered how I should recover! Thanks everyone for your comments!

Thanks for replying, I now need to know how to save these flowers. They have not grown mold yet, but they are going to mold and how to solve them. Thanks again
 
whats your RH in the house? If its dry enough you can just leave them out to air dry for a couple more days. My bigger solid buds usually took 2-3 days longer to dry out before i put them in jars.
 
Thank you, the air conditioner has been turned on, and the problem has been basically solved, but because there are a small amount of white mold spores, I have made the flowers dry enough. I do n’t know if the mold will continue to erupt in dry conditions. This is a lesson for me! Don't make mistakes next time! But I still insist on drying fresh flowers at low temperature. I will put a dehumidifier to ensure that it is dry enough and put it in the pot, because I think it will keep terpenes to a maximum when it is dried at 5-15 ° C in low temperature environment. And big taste! Thanks again! There is another problem. Maybe I did n’t spend much time to observe the growth of the flowering period of the plant. Yesterday, when the flowers were dried in a carton, 5 seeds were accidentally harvested. They came from the same plant. Feminization, maybe bananas appeared in their later stage. I don't know if the harvested seeds can be sown. Will the seeds eventually be bananas?
 
The seeds will just be seeds, they may hermie if you grow them you need to watch. IF they are ripe they should grow, they need 4-8 weeks to ripen strain dependent. If they are hard and have colour they should be good to go. If they are white and crush easily they are no good,,,

Edit BTW IF there is mold in the buds I would recommend disposal of them, mold spores are horable for ones health and are not destroyed by burning. /Edit

Pull them out of jars place in drying net again inside a empty closet with small fan the fan not directly onto buds

Don't throw it away go get some 99% alcohol and make some oil I'm sure the alcohol will kill any mold spores plus your not wasting all your hard work growing
 
Thank you for your comments. I have trimmed the location of mold spores when the flowers are wet and let them look dry. I refilled the jars and kept the jars open more than twice a day for 30 minutes. I smelled it today and there is no mold. The taste (maybe it is found that the processing time is timely), I will continue to observe, if the results are not good, I will choose to make them into oil! Thanks again for the advice! The seeds are hard and plump, dark gray and black, I will try to sow and observe them all! Cheers, good luck to everyone!
 
Do your research on mold spores and reductions, what I have read is they cannot be removed, and will be in the oil,, all I am saying is be safe! I have allergies and must pay attention to these things,,,
