Show me your drying set ups

[charface]

My hope for the future is that breeders
Will breed them so they thrive in low light and people will have them growing in the living room like wandering jew or whatever it was called

Just saying if a book was produced in the 80s 90s 2000s

There are always reissues made with up dates and changes ... right

Sorry I got sidetracked.

Ok I get what you mean. But I was kind of saying that it is all driven by technology. Like in modern hydro we have much better knowledge of microscopic inputs and their functions. And now products to use for it are available.

New science is furthering knowledge and technique barring major discoveries. They jump things forward real fast.

Recently I harvested in layers, taking the top kolas, then a week or so later the middle batch and finally from what used to be just popcorn for hash I got 3 extra jars of fine bud from just one white rhino!

It's a lot (and I mean a lot) more work doing it this way but I harvested exactly where I wanted it and got a lot more than usual for yield too, so to me it's well worth it from now on

I have been harvesting in layers as well. It allows all the buds to get fully ripe every time. I use paper bags in my groom which is about 50%rh. Then into jars with humidity gauge. Jars left closed once it stabilizes at 62%rh.

Jesus you need to build a dry HOUSE lol

That's why you gotta have fun trimming and party all the way!

humidistat keeps it 65% rh, 4 inch booster fan runs for 15 minutes every 2 hours. takes 5 -7 days to get to the jar stage usually.

Im almst done building the new dry box

Nothing speacial

Wood framed 4x 8 box with black plastic built in hanging lines
& and a spot to set the dehumidifier.

In my basement so it will stay cool


I have a few plants that will be ready within a week possibley 2

But ill be taking one of them down
To check how smell proof the room is
Not using a scrubber just going through great lenght to make it as air tight as possible (ocd helps)

 

[Cold$moke]

The plant in front and the ones on the right will come down first

I think the plants in the scrog still need about 3-4 weeks (fuckin haze lol)

 

[Roger A. Shrubber]

keep an eye on the humidity if you're making it airtight. i'm not sure that's a good idea. not sure it's not, either..... i've always wanted the room to be, not sealed, but not tight either, and i use a filter, but thats just because it vents into my house, stinks like hell if i open the door without it. stinks like hell if i open the door with it, but not as bad.

It has a built in dehumidifier


Im also trying to make a double door so it doesnt stink when i open it as bad

 

[Cold$moke]

The air tight design will hopefully concentrate the smell of the weed even more...
And give me controll of the humidity.....hopefully

 

[Cold$moke]

Ha ha air tight design FAILED the smell test.
Wating on choping till my filter gets here haha

 

[Beachwalker]

My dads science book from the fifties would say differntly

What will growers be doing in 100 years ?

Ha ha air tight design FAILED the smell test.
Wating on choping till my filter gets here haha

LOL had a feeling it might not..! I'm waiting on my new filter right now dragged my feet ordering it because of the looong extended winter in N.E. but now my windows are open and I'm trying to keep just the back windows open until my filter gets here (no Amazon Prime so guess it's not coming till Monday)

I don't notice smells much but the other day halfway up the stairs I got that green weed smell and strong! Only two plants flowering right now but they're kinda big), surprise me a little but figured if I could notice it holy cow! ..so immediately I ordered the new filter, now the wait.

Edit: yay my filter came today, took just three days so 9 p.m. tonight going to slap it on and get the rest of the windows open soon, it's been almost 90 last couple days

 

[Cold$moke]

Ah well im going to try to keep it still airtight as possible

So im going to try just scrubing the drying box air first.....if it doesnt work then ill hook it up to pull a neg pressure

 

[Cold$moke]

Its not the first time i stunk the house up

But last time i drew heat from my lady in a bad way haha

So i told her next run id make the dry box more inconspicuous haha

Been doing this for a long time

But i think me and my lady are just getting older and care more hahaha

 

[stickyfly]

My first shot at a drying setup! Cut my mini ladies yesterday and hung them using the chains that hang my light since I cant grow again till November due to temps here. Last night humidity stayed at right around 50% but we have some storms rolling through which is making humidity go crazy outside and in my house so no clue how it will all stabilize once the weather settles.

 

[Cold$moke]

I may have spoken too soon about my setup not containing the smell.

Cause i found an untaped seem (stoner)
And after taping it . no smell has creeped out

But i have the fan and filter on stand by when they get here cause this was just the small half of my harvest

 

[MidWestMayhem]

Looking at one of growmau's harvest reports he was using 850 watts of cobs and harvested 1627g's so yeah those are the crazy results you can get with cobs granted you have other things dialed in.

Link for that?
