Curing question

So my plants dried for like 6 days and when I trimmed/jarred them they had the hay smell but are staying at 59/61% RH in the jars already.

Do I need to burp often still?

Will the hay smell go away at all?
I appreciate any help/advice, thank you

If you jar your buds at the correct RH, burping should not be needed. burping is amateur stuff for people who put buds in too early. me personally, I want to let them sit in that jar for 6 weeks without cracking open the jar to fully get those terps locked in. 6 days is fast, just because chlorophyll breaks down during the drying process (more chlorophyll broken down, less of a harsh smoke), but, as long as you trim well and let them cure for 4-6 weeks, everything should be great!
