Thoughts on reducing temp and humidity in this dry tent?
mrgold10started grow question 4 years ago
I dry my bud in one of these HerbDryers that has an extractor fan. Because the surrounding air is still at 27 degrees celsius and RH at 67%, those values are the same inside the HerbDryer.
Any thoughts on how I might reduce the temp and RH inexpensively?

I would try using a dehumidifier of some sort. Your kind of pushing it with the RH since the ideal humidity to dry cannabis is 50-60%. Any lower and the plants will probably dry too quickly, while if it’s higher, problems with fungi can arise and the drying process can also take forever.

@Mr_Weeds_Autos,
Considering the RH my last dry went okay, I think the fan pulling air through means it's not stagnant - not sure though.
I'm a bit more concerned with the temperature, I read somewhere that drying above 25c will degrade the terpenes. Do you know anything about that?

Blackberry Kush HarvestHello Growing Community, Is the Blackberry Kush ready to harvest or should I wait until week 12? There are some random amber trichomes, but not at 20% yet, I'm looking for a relaxing effect. If so my plan would to let her sit in the dark for 1-2 days, then chop. Thank you!Week 11

How should I harvest?So we are 2 weeks out from harvest, but I’m wondering would it be more efficient to defoliate fan leaves and hang the plant upside down, or to cut it into multiple sections? At week 22 I believe in our diary we have more pictures.Other. Harvest - Drying

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

Ready to chop for not too minimal couch lock?The main top cola looks pretty done with a few amber trichomes. Id like the rest of the plant to be good though, does the rest of these macro shots from the lower nugs look good enough? I want almost all clear with a few ambers so not too couch locked.2 years ago

I have 3 Gorilla Zkittlez at day 95. One is ready to chop, the other two are not quite there. I’m going on vacation for 7 days. Question: chop them early or let them remain unattended for a week? I usually water every 3-4 days, the plants haven’t gone 7 days without water. WYD?Week 15
