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.

Air drying in shedI am drying my harvest in my outside shed in the uk - am a little bit worried about moisture and lack of air movement. The shed has no power so cannot use a fan. I will be opening the door up and letting in air daily. What else can I do to prevent mold?Week 15

When to jar the buds after drying?Hey guys! Advice says prune and jar when the branches snap but not completely break. Roger that, but when the smaller branches snap, do i also prune and jar the buds coming from the main stem? Or do i need to wait until the stem does the same? ✌️Week 13

First time grower - Partial HarvestHello brothers & sisters.
First time grower...
I've inspected trics all over, and as expected, they are more mature in certain areas.
Was thinking of partially harvesting?
Is it as simple as chopping the mature buds and leaving the rest for another 1-2weeks?
Thanks5y ago

Hi guys! Does anyone here has a technique for drying without a designated closet or tent space? I live in a studio, and don't have a traditional closet i could use. What options would you recommend? I saw there is one using just a paper bag? I'm scaptical about that though...Other. Harvest - Drying

Drying seems too fast after chop (Growing and Drying in a Shed). 5 days too quick and how to slow it down?Thanks! My last 2 grows seem to dry too quickly.
I dry in a shed but rh and temps are decent- 70-75F & 50-60rh. Even tried letting 1 plant go 6 days instead of 5 before trimming and the jar never climbed over 54% after. Is this normal- should I & how could I slow the dry down?Week 4

Harvest preferences - substrate/trim wet or dryJust some brain picking!
How do y'all like to harvest? How many of you leave your plant to dry in the substrate (if soil or Coco)? How many of you harvest it from wet substrate for longer drying time? I know it'll depend on environment differences, but v curious! Same q for trimOther. Harvest - Drying

Homemade drying boxI have to keep my dry separate (and concealed) from my growing room. I read an article about making a drying box with a tote and a fan rigged up now I can't find it. How do y'all do it?
