Heyo, just harvested. Can I dry in my box with the other plants which still need time? Else do they need to be in a dark place or away from the led lights? Ty

Light on your drying buds will cause the THC to break down, degrading the quality of your smoke.

For good drying, you need complete dark, temp of 60F and humidity of 60%... and fans that move the air AROUND the buds - not directly into them.... This is ideal and should give a nice long (7+ days) drying time. UV light can and will degrade your weed... A good article on the entire process is here if you'd like to know more: https://www.leafly.com/learn/growing/harvesting-marijuana/drying-curing-cannabis Good luck and congratulations on your harvest!

I´ve done it at times in the past, when the conditions were as such. Ideally somewhere well above the light source, away from direct exposure. Make sure you check at least a couple of times a day for mold.
