I would never do such a thing, I love dry buds, but I think orange peels in the bag is a common method, or damp papaer towel in an enclosed space.

Orange peels make it taste like ass if you leave them in there too long. And too dry of weed is more chokey.

Put a bit of lettuce into whatever container holds your bud. Make sure to take it out after a day maximum unless you want a chance of getting moldy weed.

Perhaps if you steam them they will become slightly humid again?
Is someone willing to potentially sacrifice a bud to test this out?

i have the best way possible to do this. ok first off anyone who puts food stuff (carrots, lettuce, apples, ect) in the bag is introducing more than just moisture into the bud and it will cause mold to grow faster. ive used my method for years and it works great for pot you plan on smoking within the next week or so. here are 2 different methods:
1. find a spray bottle that sprays a very fine mist. i found some at a dollar store in the woman's bath products section. or any bottle that has an adjustable nozzle will work great. hold up your biggest nugs and give them 1 or 2 sprays from a distance of about 6-9 inches away and wave the buds around in the mist in the air. i put mine in a regular sandwich bag loosely rolled up after that for a few hours. its very easy to over moisten it this way so make sure you test with one mist first and give it a few hours to fluff up.
2. this a little more controlled of a way but it takes longer. take a piece of either toilet paper or paper towel (not tissues because they usually have lotions and shit on them.) ball up a piece half the size of a dime and get it wet (it should be that big after wet, btw this is for lets say a couple grams. bigger ball for more bud.) make sure its not dripping wet, squeeze it a lil bit first. put it either in a bag with the bud or for quicker moistening put it in a mason jar with the buds. should be good after sitting overnight.
after you do this, put your buds in the freezer to keep them fresh longer.
just a side note if your doing this to mass amounts of pot to make it weigh more to sell it without people knowing you moistened it, your a douche. the pot you sell them will be moldy within a week or so.
i teach my friends how to do this themselves.
edit: if you use the second method, wash your damn hand first. that ball is going to soak up your dirty hand scum if you dont.

you know ive never looked into this much, but i have talked to some professional med growers and they always say freeze em to make them last longer.
a trick ive learned though is if you do freeze buds, let them thaw after they come out of the freezer before you open the bag or jar because you'll notice there is a shit ton of moisture on the inside of the container that will go back into the buds. keeps the smell nice and stinky and the buds nice.

just go to a headshop and buy one of those things they sell to keep tobacco fresh.
its usually just a sponge inside of a piece of plastic that has holes in it. you dip it in water and put it in with your bud.

Not at all, that's how it's best stored long-term.
IMO the only thing that works without making the flavor worse (i.e. mold), is to mix in a little bit of dry weed with a lot of freshly cured weed. About 1:7
So, my speculation is that best results come from another freshly cured herb. I've always wondered how well tobacco would work, as I imagine most other fresh(ly cured) spices would impart a significant flavor

Always sucks to have some really dry bud that just crumbles. As some people have mentioned, use some orange peels and throw the bud in a ziplock bag with the peels.
Then throw it in your fridge for 24 hours. If it gets too wet it'll be worse than it being dry because it won't burn. Just keep an eye on it. I personally think you should just smoke they dry bud than tampering with it.

Just use a small piece of tortilla, put it in the jar. Check every 6 hours until it is moist enough for you. Tortilla won't cause mold, over moistening, or a change in the taste or smell of your cannabis.

I purposefully dry all my buds... If I get moist buds I put them in a container w/ desiccant. When you remove the H2O, you get more THC in ur body... Its been proven, look it up. The only reason to keep buds with ANY moisture is for shipping & handling or ripping people off. If its too harsh... its because you're burning more weed w/ less heat. Which is another good thing... Hold the lighter farther away or load smaller hits.

Store your weed in a mason jar, Slightly dampen a paper towel, Make sure it's moist, but not enough to drip at all. When you close the lid to your jar keep the damp paper across the top of it. In a little time it should be "rejuvenated." Just make sure not to over do it, keep an eye on it. Seeing as I don't have any idea of how dry/ how much herb you have, It would be impossible to give you an estimate on time but we're talking hours.

I found this on 420Magazine.com. Seems like it does the trick:
Quote:
Adding moisture to a smoking bag of over-dried, crispy buds is easy. All you need is a sealed container (A Ziploc bag or a 1-quart jar works good), fresh fan leaves and about a day’s time.
1) Put your over dried buds into a Ziploc bag or a 1 quart mason jar (I prefer the mason jar).
2) Add a few freshly cut fan leaves (fresh shoots work great too) to your jar or baggie. I use about 3-5 leaves to half a mason jar. Start with a few leaves; add more leaves as necessary. Fan leaves will become dry and shriveled when they given up their moisture.
If fresh leaf is unavailable, a small piece of lettuce, or apple/orange/potato peel can be used as well. A paper towel with a few drops of water on it also does the trick.
3) The final step is to wait about a day. How long it takes depends on how much bus in the container and how dry the buds were. It has worked as fast as 5 hrs.
Check the container at least once a day. The buds will have a nice, soft texture will not feel crispy or brittle when they are ready. They will smell better too!
Editor’s note: To re-moisten larger amounts of dry bud, simply scale everything up. You may want to seperate large and smaller buds into seperate containers. Once a day, turn the pile of buds over to expose the bottom buds. Check for any signs of rot. The process may take 1-3 days.

Yeah it's great for crumbling to roll joints. The joint can be moistened after rolling for slower burning. Much better to buy too because you're not paying for water weight.

I used to use orange peal in the bag of weed. Only use a TEENY TINY BIT of orange peel though, a little bit goes a LOOOOONG way.
You'll only need to have it in there for a few hours.
But what I've learned over the years is that dry weed burns REALLY evently, and because it burns evenly, it gets you way more high. I hate wet weed or humid weed, you have to fucking suck from the pipe like you're trying to suck down a fucking dick or something. And then it doesn't even stay lit.
Yes, dry weed turns into shake easily, but just be a little more careful when you're handling it.
I happen to LOOOOOVE dry shaky weed. You get a lot more for your money when you buy shake because there's no stems and no water weight whatsoever. I once knew a guy who sold $10 grams of shake when his supply got down to the bottom of the bag. I loved it when he was running out of weed. I got more for the 10 dollar shake sacks than I did from the normal 20 dollar gram bags.

Yep. Tiny piece of orange peel does the trick perfectly. Just leave it in for a few hours and you've rejuvenated some of the moisture and you get the added bonus of having citrus weed.
