I will be harvesting my first grow! But I'm worrying the climate in my country won't make drying easy. What should one do in case of to high temperatures. I will try to find a well vented place thats not to hot. But should I try drying without cutting all foliage to dry slow? 🥦✌️

Well that is a tough call. If its dry heat, then yes, drying with leaves on will be a good idea. The leaves will protect the trichomes and help her dry slower for terpene development. If it's a humid heat, leaving the leaves on is just asking for mold. High temperatures will affect your potency a bit either way, I'm sorry to say. Keep it under 85°F and you'll probably only be minimally affected.

I must agree with the other fellow grower that you have to be conscience about what kind of heat are we talking about dry heat or humid Heat. If you do have the dry heat then you don't need to worry that much about taking all the leaves out what you need to be focussing on is to cut the plant from the stem and turning it upside down and you will have no problems as long as you are in Peach black location despite the Heat if you have a very humid heat then you want to defoliate as much as possible but again use the same technique of cutting the plant from the main stem and hanging it upside down this will make old the water left on the stem to help the buds have a slower drying time to increase potency but I have lived in the tropics in the American continent for some time and we used to have all kind of different strains with us and the only thing you truly have to worry is mold and that is when is hot humid temperature . I hope this tip helps you out good luck with your garden and congratulations on your Harvest
