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 🤙

Would be absolutely perfect for drying mate :)
Your temp regulates at the sweet spot so your set, the cooler the dry room the more colour comes out.
You will need just a little fan nothing special just a cheap fan to get the air moving. But never aim the wind at your buds. You want to dry real slow.
If you have hygrometer, try get the humidity to stay around 60% - 70% for the first week of drying. Use the fan if humidity is too high and if its too low, sit a bucket of water in the dry room, or a humidifier.
On the second week get it to regulate at 50% humidity and under.
Your conditions otherwise sound perfect and i envy you as my dry room is hot and dry -,-
Best of luck mate!

20c is a little high. If you can keep the area around 14c would be great. Humidity at 50 is good you dont want it much lower than that. Have fan not directly on the harvest plants. You want a nice slow dry. 10-14 days. Best of luck.

That environment sounds great.
You'll want some air movement but not directed at the buds, more so a fan that's on every now and then pointed at a wall.
Keeping out all the light is also key or most of it. black out curtains drawn.
Low and slow, 10-14 day dry then a nice 3 month cure with lots of burping.
Good Luck!

This sounds absolutely perfect! What a sweet set up you have... but try to keep your temps right around 15c and humidity around 60%. Set a small fan to move the air slightly around the buds and you'll be golden!

First time grower - Partial HarvestHello brothers & sisters.
First time grower...
I've inspected trics all over, and as expected, they are more mature in certain areas.
Was thinking of partially harvesting?
Is it as simple as chopping the mature buds and leaving the rest for another 1-2weeks?
Thanks

Should I jar early? 5 days after chopI harvested last Wednesday. I did a bit of a wet trim because I was worried about the humidity in the tent with the light off. The first few days the RH was between 50-70% and the nugs felt wet. Now it's been 45% for 2 days and the nugs are rock hard. Should I put in jars early?Week 24

Hey ! My Critical is having around 60% Brown Hairs and the Trichomes are starting to look milky (at least I think so). Would it be ok to start harvest around a week from now ? If I'm messing up the nutes because it's turning yellow... any comments ? Happy growing !!!

Watering and darkness before harvestI've been giving them just water for 2 weeks but I only let them get about 10% runoff. I want to put them in 48hrs darkness but not if they've just been watered. Looking for opinions: flush to 80% runoff now and harvest on Wed or leave them in darkness and cut them down on Wed?

Best Time to Use a Trim BowlLooking for advice on when to use my trim bowl? Wet/as part of harvest? Dry/after drying on stems fir a couple weeks? Last year I used it wet/part of harvest - felt like I lost a lot of resin to the trimmer.
I don’t smoke much... mostly make edibles/tinctures.

Harvest: I don’t know what’s coming aheadI’m 5 weeks into flower, maybe 3 weeks left, that’s enough time to get anything I’m missing. I watched some vids on youtube. Can someone give me some steps to follow for harvest and what I might need? I have CBD plants, bud formation is not like regular THC plants.
