Cardboard box drying outdoors?
FourVentiFarmsstarted grow question 2 years ago
I dont have a place in my house to let them dry, plus I dont have a de/humidifier.
I’d dry them in a sheltered place, in a cardboard box but still outside, averages 60-70% humidity, i would cut holes both sides for ventilation but keep light out and put boveda packs 65% Thoughts?

Its all about consistency, dry n cure is low and slow and should be good so long as there isn't some weather phenomenon that dries the air, make sure its evenly spread too don't want it all piled up, stuff at the bottom will dry at a different rate, How much weed we talking ??lol

I wouldn't do a cardboard box. If it rains you stuff is done for. I you get a plastic tote or something. Drill holes in the side to slide a bar through, then hang from the bar. Squeeze a fan underneath blowing at the buds. Then I think you'd be good. I would also worry about bugs and such

Hey Growmie,
I've personally used a cardboard box to dry in so that that part will be fine, but what you'll need to watch for are the humidity and temp and make sure they are staying in the correct range, which could be the tricky part since your actually drying room is outside, you'll have to take in consideration the temp and humidity outside will affect the inside of your sheltered, if you can stay on top of that I don't see an issue with this at all. Feel free to shoot me a holler if you ever need any help, I'd be honored to assist you. Hopefully, this was helpful, and remember ... "Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time".

You should buy a rack for that, it works well and my advice : The rack inside the tent (check my last diary, I did pictures of my rack) but you have grown outdoor ! You can suspend them if you are in a hurry, dry and no light place.

You need between 45 and 55 % humidity mate, no light, air circulation, If your shelter is underground, it depend on isolation.

To harvest, or not to harvestCurious what others thoughts are - I realize this diary is seriously lacking. I only stumbled here on week 8 of this experiment.
Do you think this girl is nearing, right at or still some time left before harvest?

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?

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!

Right harvest time - Trichome color expierencesCan you please share your experiences regarding the right time for 48h darkness + harvest?
WW 70% Indica/30%Sativa, if the trichome color is milky it will be a head fucused instead of body focused effect
Expectation:Harvest time should support the ratio type of strainWeek 8

Help!! Do I harvest?About 50% milky, 40% clear trichome heads. But in some minor spots, they are all dark brown/amber. Its supposed to be a Forbidden Cherry Automatic (Dutch Passion), but did not turn purple. I want it to be a bit more relaxing, indica-like. Week 11, outdoor balcony grow.

Edible out of fresh harvestHi, I'm not very much into smoking weed, more like eating edibles. In cause of financial and space problems, my plan is to make edibles stait out of the harvest or after the drying. My question is: Does the curing/fermentation effects the potency or effect of the weed?Buds. Other

What do you all think?What do you all think?
The harvest will be in a few weeks, in Germany only 50g is allowed dry
Do you think it will be more or less?
I know it will be hard to tell from a picture how much dry remains, but I hope there are some estimates.
