Cutting down for harvest
Showmethewaytogrowhomestarted grow question 5y ago
I'm right on the verge of my first harvest and there seems to be several approaches to cutting down the plants. Should I cut and hang the entire plant or cut and hang individual branches?

High,
Congrats with the harvest!!!
I think its all up to what serves you best, with the conditions you offer.
If you got all the stuff and a perfect clima, I should go for a good week of intire plant drying. And see from then on how to handle it further.
If your not that lucky yet, to have all the goodies, i rather go with cutting it in to pieces. Using carton boxes and a cord to make small drying compartiments is easy and will do the trick.
In all cases, get some minor ventilation on outside the boxes, or in case of the tent, just a flow from the airsubstraction will do.
Grow safe buds!!
🙏🌿🌿🌿🙏

Hi guys.
Planning for my drying
I’m thinking of uesing my loft space, it’s dark, temp sits between 14c and 20c and humidity between 45 and 50
I can add a fan to keep the air moving
What do u think is this ok or is it too dry and not warm enough?
Thanks 🤙

Should I harvest a bit early?I had some nutrient problems early on, so a lot of my leaves are dead. My LST didn't go very well so some of the bigger colas don't have a lot of room to get additional light. I'm thinking it may be time to go ahead and cut and harvest. Trichomes look pretty cloudy.

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!

Harvest waste?Hi gang! I've chopped my plants and they're hanging in the tent drying out for approx. 5 more days. The lower branch buds are small and underdeveloped. What do you find is the best use for these? Surely they aren't worth curing and smoking? Is there a use for the trim also?Other. Harvest - Drying
