DoubleDsTreesstarted grow question a year ago
Those of you that hang entire plants to dry… if you weigh the entire plant wet, what percentage loss in weight are you looking for before you buck the nugs and start curing?

I hang the full plant to dry, but I never weigh the full plant wet, but to give you an answer it would lose 90-95% depending on the plant. I've done it before where I weighed the plant wet and was just devastated when I then trimmed it all of the stem and compared the 2.

You will lose about 75 percent of weight from moisture in flower as it dries

Is necessary to harvest in 2 times? Give a week more for the bottom "popcorn" buds and the third plant, shorter in shadow?

I have two drying options for my one plant. Wine fridge with perfect temp or closet with perfect humidity. Which is best?Should I dry my one plant in a wine fridge with a compressor that causes the humidity to fluctuate between 50-70% but can be set to a perfect 60f, or should I dry in a closet with perfect 60% humidity but temp at a steady 74f with no way to lower it? Perfect humidity or temp? ThxOther. Harvest - Drying

Drying.Hi all!
I currently have 2 plants growing. 1 of them has clearly bloomed faster and I will have to harvest it earlier.
Because I have only one grow box and I don't know where to dry it. Can I put them somewhere for two weeks to wait for the 2nd one?
Could u tell me what to do?

How long after the last flush, do you wait until you chop your plant?
Do you let it dry out so the pot is nice and light before you harvest? Or is a little moisture left in the soil ok? Did last flush 48 hrs ago and I'm itching to chop her down, but still slightly damp soil

Dovrei raccogliere tra circa 10 giorni, ho trattato una zona del box con olio di neem per via di un infestazione di ragnetti rossi. Vorrei sciacquare i fiori, ripuliti dalle foglie più grandi, prima di metterli appesi ad essicare per togliere i residui. Come devo procedere? Grz2 years ago

Lots of Yellow Leaves-No Amber TrichomesMy 2 Sour Diesel autos are at the 11 week mark. I've flushed them for one week now and they are getting lots of yellow leaves and the trichomes are getting milky. However there is hardly a trace of any amber trichomes. Do I wait for the amber? Am I being impatient?
