HeavyHittahanswered grow question 4 years ago
I like to trim all the big leaves off . Hang them up in a tent . Keep humidty around 60 percent for the first few days . Then reduce it as the week goes on to around 50 to 55. Temps I keep quite cool at 19.5degress c. Usually dried nicely in 8 days. Longer the drying process the better. You don't want to dry then to quickly. Keep a fan in the corner of the tent also for air circulation. Not directed at your buds. And in the curing jars from there.

Yes you can go a bit higher with the temps . Maybe up to 21/22 degrees c. You don't want it much higher than that as the buds can dry too quickly, not allowing all the chlorophyll to evaporate . Which will give you a harsh taste . Good luck . Nice looking buds 🌱

My WW autos were better dry trimmed. Are you sure they are done? Most WW take minimum 8 weeks in bloom and they will get white looking. 2 of mine took 10 weeks in bloom cycle. I have another not in diary that took 11 weeks.

@spacecadet55, thanks. This is the info I wanted. Times temps rh. Thank you. Is there a temp range I am looking at. I dunno if I can maintain a solid 19.5c for a week. Not without some new equipment..

Edible out of fresh harvestHi, I'm not very much into smoking weed, more like eating edibles. In cause of financial and space problems, my plan is to make edibles stait out of the harvest or after the drying. My question is: Does the curing/fermentation effects the potency or effect of the weed?Buds. Other

Should I trim/jar now or wait another day or 2?Today is day 4 of drying and I've unfortunately had my temps around 68 and humidity at around 42%. The buds feel pretty dry/on the verge of crispy but the stems still have some bend. Should I jar tonight or will the moisture even out and wait for that snap? Thanks for any help!Other.

Is this still good or is it ruined?Hung plants to dry and waited for stems to snap, unfortunately when I checked the buds were so crispy they basically crumbles in my hands. I heard this could be mold/rot also. Did I mess up and over dry my buds, or is this something much more awful? Is this still salvageable?Other. Mold

Right harvest time - Trichome color expierencesCan you please share your experiences regarding the right time for 48h darkness + harvest?
WW 70% Indica/30%Sativa, if the trichome color is milky it will be a head fucused instead of body focused effect
Expectation:Harvest time should support the ratio type of strainWeek 8

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?Week 10

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 soilWeek 13
