Long drying

BabyYoda
BabyYodastarted grow question 6 months ago
It’s been about 3 weeks now of drying. I’m coming back from vacation in about 3 more, is it okey for them to keep hanging here for so long or is it bad?

It's absolutely fine if conditions are correct. It's the same as bring in the jar! 60/60 and they can hang indefinitely homie. Enjoy the trip!

Check that the buds are not too damp to the touch before putting them in jars. The branches should also break when bent. Curing is easy, your mother should do very well: - put the flowers in glass jars, without packing and leaving a third of the jars empty - open the jars for an hour every day for the first week - then, gradually space out the opening periods, as long as it doesn't smell like damp hay (if it does, reduce the intervals). - After a month or so, there's no need to open them other than to take a few buds to finish to dry before consuming. Using 62% humidity stabilisers, such as Boveda or Boost, will help the process quite a bit, but will keep your flowers a little damp (better for preserving terpenes). Complete with a little 58% before consuming.

Thanks for all your answers. My mom is attending them, but she doesn’t know much about growing weed XD. I asked her to put them in the jars and put a boveda pack in, so hopefully my buds will still be okey😬

If you hang her in the garage, if it is cool or cold in your area and gets damp at night time, it will take about 3 weeks to dry.i had so much to trim this year. I did just that, in the garage and it took about 3 weeks to dry. And it is still in the garage 2 weeks after that, but getting 2 dry now. So will use for extract

You should start curing now, 3 weeks is too long and your flowers shoul be dry, maybe too dry. But curing means be there to open jars every few days. Bad timing to go in holiday during harvest. ><'

Hey BabyYoda! In general 3 weeks drying is already a lot if you are not doing it in a constantly controlled environment or if you are not super lucky of your humidity levels. Definitely you should test the small stems. If they break easily with a snap. You are already done. If they bend, you might still have some time to keep it hanging. Although leaving it unatended for 3 more weeks, seems a lot. All the best!

Depends on the humidity in that room. If it's 60/65 they should be ok. 55 and below probably to dry by now. The boveda 62 %packs are decent if too dry . Add one of those to your jar.
