By all means, leave that filtration fan on. It will supply the light air circulation needed to slowly dry out your buds. As well as reducing chance of molding and keeping the smell away.

Lower buds crumbled at harvest
Hi growmates, I tried flushing the last week, and the plant seemed to die, with buds beginning to dry. When I harvested, the lower buds just crumbled. The colas though were still tight. Do you think I should have kept giving nutrients to the end? Has anyone experienced this?

Rosin? Mold? Something worry about?
After drying one of my plants(Auto Red Poison from Sweet Seeds) I noticed some glue like balls on some leaves. Wondering if this is a good sign, or might be caused by a poor drying environment and i have to worry about mold or something? Thanks in advance for your time.

When are the plants ready to harvest?
When is it time to harvest? I want the high-peak of THC, so probably more milky than amber trichomes. First Video is the Tropicana Cookies FF, second Video the Rainbow Melon. Link to both grows are in my profile.

Estimating wet bud weight from dry bud weight
The harvest report for the diary asks for wet bud weight, which I didn't measure. (I think it'd be hard to provide that number if you didn't wet trim, right?) So, what's a good conversion: using dry trim weight to estimate wet trim weight? I've got a screenshots of AI answers:

Mold or spiders?
Is this mold? Is the whole harvest ruined or just the buds that show mold? This is the main cola on an untrained plant.

Wann darf ich ernten
Da die Northern Light von RoyalQueenSeeds mit 7-8 Wochen und die Royal Runtz mit 8-9 Wochen Blüte angegeben ist, frage ich mich (als Anfänger) natürlich wann es nun soweit ist. Ich hoffe man kann auf den Bildern etwas erkennen. 😊 Die ersten 8 sind vom 01.08, der Rest vom 04.08

To flush or not to flush? That is the question.
I’m chopping in about a week. What’s the latest science on flushing?

We Dryer - how to get compact buds
Hello, I use the "We Dryer" stuff to dry my buds in the appartment. Temparature in the room is about 26° and humidity 52% Any suggestions to keep the buds as compact as possible? I have compact buds on the plants but as soon as I cut them and dry them, they became more "aerial"

How much longer?
Northern Lights Auto RQS D65 from seed. The leaves are drying out quick! not sure if I should leave it one more week or take it down today. I know the photos aren't the best quality but would appreciate the advice. I see no amber trichs, almost 100% milky.

When should I raise my lights and how high should they be for the stretch? Using a Meizhi 300 @ about 22" from the canopy right now.

Bud rot harvest?
Bud rot or normal purpling underneath? First grow and harvest and found some purple when cutting off the fan leaves before hanging to dry (going to dry trim). Anything I should be looking for in particular. I don't see any other signs of mold.

Harvest?
When will this be ready for chop. I’m having a hard time getting a good look at the trichomes. I know the goal is 30% amber. One plant has very few white hairs and one has quite a few can I wait for the others to come to full maturity too. I plan on using same tent to hang dry.

Are these to early to pick?
So number one is 100% ready to go, obviously for ease, I'd like to do the whole crop at once. So I just want to know if you guys think these pods are far enough along to dry? I mean the buds themselves not the tricks. Last 4 pics in week I commented them

Harvest time soon?
Trichs are almost all milky but most pistils haven't turned brown yet. My question to the novices and pros in our community is when to harvest this? Not all plants exhibit the same signs so I've included representative bud shots. I prefer an "up" buzz not the amber couch lock.
