trim before drying?
jamjam887766started grow question 5y ago
I just started drying. Should I have trimmed off the small fan leaves before hanging? Does it make a difference?

It’s all preference imo... it’s easier to leave them on and just pull them off once dried, rather than cutting each one off.
I take the time and get the larger one’s off, but you’ll be fine either way!

I've read many reviews on both on forums, mostly prefer the "dry trim" due to many reasons. try searching for this term.

How can I mask the smell of fresh harvest for 4 hrs at a time without risking mold?I did a wet trim, cut and hung my girls tonight. My landlord's realtor is showing my apartment 12-4 Thursday-Sunday. I'm going to put them in paper bags and put them in this bin under my bed for the 4 hours people come through and just burn incense. Will the buds be ok? Any tips?Week 17

My girls all have very close buds on the cola's, they are packed one on top off the other, big and dense. This caused air flow issues and helped to fester the bud rot. Is there a way I can encourage more stretch in the plant? especially in the cola's?Week 25

When could I start to harvest?When do you guys think I could start harvesting? I’m in week 9 of a Fast Eddy CBD grow. This strain only had 9% THC so I didn’t know if this would mean the trichomes don’t go as milky.Other. Harvest - Drying

When to harvest auto flower? Can I push it to week 13?Wondering when to harvest these bad boys. Trichomes don’t appear amber yet. Website for the seeds say 70-90 days seed to harvest. I’m wondering if I can push it to 90 days (13 weeks(ish)) even if they appear ready at 70. Will that effect my harvest?Week 8

RH and Temp settings good for tent in bathroom?I set up a Govee automation in my basement bathroom. My tent is set up with a sensor inside and when it gets down to 58% humidity it turns on a humidifier. Once it gets to 60% it turns off.
Should this be good with an inline fan going on low the whole time? Room is 55-60F.Other. Harvest - Drying
