Cure Humidity Rh
Cure humidity (RH) is not an aroma itself, but rather an environmental parameter that directly influences the development and preservation of cannabis flower aromas during post-harvest curing. During the curing process, relative humidity between 45–65% RH is commonly maintained to allow for slow chlorophyll degradation and terpene stabilization. Outside this range—either too wet or too dry—curing conditions can accelerate terpene loss, promote mold development, or lock in undesirable chlorophyll flavors. Breeders and cultivators track this metric because it affects the final aromatic profile and volatile compound retention of finished flower.

While breeders cannot directly select for optimal cure humidity, understanding how storage conditions affect terpene preservation informs strain selection and handling recommendations. Cultivators working with different genetic lineages may adjust curing protocols based on the terpene profiles and moisture retention characteristics of the parents.
