Humidity whilst drying
Foxtrotoscarstarted grow question 4 years ago
Hoping someone could help. I’ve got my buds up drying but my RH is 70% and will not come down. I have it in a growing tent so I has air intake and carbon filter with a osculating fan AND a dehumidifier. Although it’s at 70% RH will it be ok?

That does seem very high. Is the room it's in very humid? Can you open windows and doors to help? Put a fan or aircon in that room? I'm sure it will be OK will take a long time to dry though, maybe trim each stem off and hang it instead of the whole plant.

it's not ideal. Keep close eye on it.
Can you grow in a larger area? leave lights off in a room or something? that way your buds don't impact the local environment so much.
if you can fit the duhum in tent, close it up and it'll work better. slow down intake/exhaust a bit for it to keep up. you don't need as much air with dead plants, but a little in and out is needed.

For a next time, or if you can find it for now, there's a product that retain moisture, Calcium Chloride. You may find on dehumidifier in market, without chemical smell, find the neutral. Or buy the powder and make your own dehumidifier. Care not to dry too much with that!

70% is too high for drying. between 50-60 is ideal.

Hi!
If you cant find any ways to lower the humidity then you might have to put some heat to the room so no mold or bud rot will come!! What is your temperature in there? Just keep the airflow as good as possible and I think that you might want to consider so other place to dry them?
Im not 100% certain how bad 70%RH is but I think that as long as you have everything else set good you dont need to worry

How long after the last flush, do you wait until you chop your plant?
Do you let it dry out so the pot is nice and light before you harvest? Or is a little moisture left in the soil ok? Did last flush 48 hrs ago and I'm itching to chop her down, but still slightly damp soil

Drying.Hi all!
I currently have 2 plants growing. 1 of them has clearly bloomed faster and I will have to harvest it earlier.
Because I have only one grow box and I don't know where to dry it. Can I put them somewhere for two weeks to wait for the 2nd one?
Could u tell me what to do?

I have two drying options for my one plant. Wine fridge with perfect temp or closet with perfect humidity. Which is best?Should I dry my one plant in a wine fridge with a compressor that causes the humidity to fluctuate between 50-70% but can be set to a perfect 60f, or should I dry in a closet with perfect 60% humidity but temp at a steady 74f with no way to lower it? Perfect humidity or temp? ThxOther. Harvest - Drying

Air drying in shedI am drying my harvest in my outside shed in the uk - am a little bit worried about moisture and lack of air movement. The shed has no power so cannot use a fan. I will be opening the door up and letting in air daily. What else can I do to prevent mold?Week 15

Odd green smell during dryingDay 5 of dry and nugs are starting to crunch though stems dont crack yet.
I've lost the dank, unless touched, and it smells of what i'm guessing is clorophyll
How long does this last for or have I done something wrong?
Temp 19°c on average +-2°c and RH is 55% +-1%.
Thanks😎
