i have a plant that has been drying for 4 days and the buds are crispy but the stems dont snap they bend still should i wait until the stem snaps. And what takes longer curing or drying more information is that my plant is 27 inches how long would that take to cure nicely i will be using a mason jar and if there is little moisture will put orange peels in it but i need info on how long it will take to cure. And is the curing process where the weed starts smelling like weed because mine smells like dank if i give the buds a gentle squeeze.

You need to chop them up before you put them in jars bro. Lesson learned, LARGE COLAS IN JARS MAKE FOR MOLD!!!! Curing can last a while, perhaps 1month or more. You should put them in large grocery paper bags before you jar them up for a cure. Check for mold every day, even if you have to rough them up a little, trust me, its worth it.

what is the shortest amount of time to cure

You dont need to cure to smoke it.... curing is like aging a wine... it only gets better w/ age!

ok im about to cure but what if the lower branches snap but the cola bends wait until its all dry or put the smaller branches in a jar. And would curing for 3 days do anything to the tase and potency.

Patience is key after harvest. Read up on properly curing your bud and go from there. You can smoke it once it is crisp, but it won't taste that great. 3 days is not gonna make much difference.
