==Humidity standardization==
# To make it simple, [[#Drying|dry]] the substance first.
# Calculate how much water you need to add (see the below section).
# For small batches, pour the water in folded toilet paper, and attach the paper at the inside of a lid for a sealed container, for example, a mason jar.
# Add a hygrometer to the container, to monitor the relative humidity.
# Store until the toilet paper is dry.
===How to calculate the amount of water===
Add x% of the desired weight in water to y weight substance: (y+(y*x))*x
:Example: To get 10% humidity for 100 g dry herb, add 11 g water: (100+(100*0.1))*0.1 = 11
