Ready to harvest? How should I dry it while the other finishes in the tent?
HYDRO_LIGHTstarted grow question 4y ago
Two plants, one looks ready, what do you think? If I harvest it now, how should I start the drying process since the other one needs the tent to finish? Last photo is of the other plant that isn't ready.

Hey guys, I have a question about drying. Where I live the temp right now are pretty hot and the only place I can dry in is my grow tent(50x50x160cm)10 days from harvest.I will dry with a temp of 23/24C and 60/62%Rh. Unfortunately buying an ac unit is out of my budget at the moment. I'm planning to hang my plant whole to maximize the time of drying and compensate the hot temp. Will this allow me to dry my plant in a good way?Week 11

Small bud rot - Harvest or finish off? 9 weeks into flowerI've had to cut about a 1 inch section off the top of one of my colas due to what appears to be rot. I've checked the rest of the plant and can't see anywhere else that has been effected. Should I harvest now to
be on the safe side or let it finish up?Buds. Other

Timing a 7d flush — will it over-ripen if I begin flushing when it's ready for harvest and keep it for 1 more week on flush juice?Need advice on timing a 7d flush. My 2nd grow, both (Sativas) flowered signif. longer than advertised (+2-4 weeks).
To know when to start flushing, do you visually estimate when a plant is no more t 1wk from harvest? If I start flush when it's ripe for harv, too late or ok?1y ago

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
