Head cheese lol, jesus the names eh! Either way I'm sure its rocket fuel and going by what your saying it smells sweet.
From reading 10 days drying at ideal conditions which mine aint so maybe 15 days and a month curing? Whatcha reckon yerself man?

15 days screams mold to me man. i do 5-7 day dry and my stuff turns out great along with a 2 week cure minimum
Some funny names alright mate lol
But yeah as spudguy says around 5-7 days is a good range... but then when it comes down to curing it’s all down to personal preference really! Like you could cure for months it ya wanted, it all depends if it was for your own personal smoke or if ya were selling it or whatever.. me personally I reckon I will get about 20 oz from this one and I won’t be curing it at all.. it will be all gone on the day it’s finished drying

How do you fast dry in two days Buds? What temps and humidity ya use?
The very top three inch of the cola on my biggest plant has dried out from the light, bleached and crackly, no sign of mold but not happy... Was away and house mate never checked em
Cut the whole top cola off and fed the plant straight water and will chop it asap.
Fast drying it might be wise and your advice on how handy man.

When I first dried some weed I did it in 2 days by accident, I had it hanging in the tent with the extractor on and a fan blowing against a wall for air flow. I found it took forever to cure tho

So its in jars and curing, smells super tangy! Not a fantastic yield but more than double what I got off my first grow (this time last year).
I took my clones about 3 days ago, and theyre still holding up. Reckon I may manifold the mother, just for the craic like.
And the Frankenstein twins are still looking freaky! Pushing out loadsa shoots

I have no dan in the tent 90's Stoner but the extraction fan is strong enough and I've put a heater up against the inlet. Temps up to 18 and rh to 58. I believe rh will increase as temperature rises...damn that bastaid ebay seller lol, i need the de humidifier. Also not a huge amount of smell from it, to me anyhow. Wonder have i fooked it all up?

Is the inside of the tent windy? I think thats what made the diffence in drying speed, I didnt use the fan in the tent this time and it took 10 days to dry. Sometimes the smell doesnt come till after the cure, ya might get lucky

Deffo not windy man. Will put a clip on in tomo facing the wall. Tent is a small one .5 x.5 x 1 and thought the 180cfm exhaust would renew the air fast and be all i need.
Temps now 19 and 58rh. As soon as stems snaps then jars or paper bags?

I try to keep my dry room at around 15C and 50 - 60% humidity. Fan should be used on a low setting but don’t have it blowing the buds just keep the air moving and extraction through a filter. Should dry within a week. If your room was at 11C thats going to take longer to dry. I wouldn’t use a dehumidifier unless your over 80% that sucks all the goodness out. Once they’re too dry you can’t come back down that. Then cure for a couple weeks does the job for me

Was looking at that stuff, its considered industrial hemp when it has >.3% THC, (>.2% in ireland). Has anybody here smoked it? any good? Theres a coffe shop in the southeast (waterford or somthing) thats selling the stuff. Ya think if the cops found ya with a grow of it theyd be able to charge ya?
