Nutrients
This was my first time growing, and I germinated unknown bagseed. The plant I harvested seemed pretty good (I accidentally over-dried it). I used Technaflora's Recipe for Success Starter Kit. I didn't really understand what each nutrient was for and why it was important. I also used Thrive Alive B-1 Red but that item isn't available in the drop down menu. 5 stars all around because of the nice yield from a noob with random genetics. I can see buying this starter kit again, as it's small sizes make for the right amount to grow a few plants at a time, a couple of times a year.
This was a test - when I was trying to germinate the 4 seeds I had been given, I had no idea whether or not I would be able to grow. Turns outs, thanks to the Internet, I learned a lot and decided that I would definitely try this again.
My biggest lesson was in the drying stage - I was using guidelines like "Let them hang for a couple of days until they feel spongy". In less than 24 hours, my newly harvest buds went from lovely to crumbling at the touch. I rehydrated with a Boveda, but it didn't really turn out to be a great smoke.
I tried to complete the outcome numbers to the best of my ability but I have no idea how to determine total light power used, as I initially used CFLs.
I'm now in the midst of my second grow, this time from clones...00

Grow Questions
EhlersChickstarted grow question 5 years ago
My apartment's humidity is 40% - harvested buds completely dried out in under 24 hours. Should I place my next harvest directly into jars to avoid the mistake I made in my first grow? I would appreciate any suggestions (I cannot control the ambient humidity). Thanks!

Hi @EhlersChick. Don't do that! You will ruin your final product and risk to encounter mold issues. This is strange since you're close to the ideal drying RH (~50%), can't this be related to your temperature? You should consider building a drying box, I've made one out of cardboard and it's working fine. Basically, a cardboard container with a passive intake hole and a tiny computer fan (mine is 4x4cm) to extract the air and generate a smooth airflow in your box. Put the box in your coolest room, if RH is too low you can put a mister/humidifier in the same room. Finally, you may consider giving your plants a last watering right before the cut (24-48h before the cut), this should increase the drying time because of more water in the buds. Hope this will help, enjoy your harvest! 👊
