Any idea on how to control humidity when I chop them down? It's usually around 65% humidity and I'm thinking that's a bit too high for plants drying. Or will I be ok?

Thats too high. chances are once the plants and pots are out of the box, your humidity should drop considerably. If not, a dehumidifier. No fans, no lights, and no humidity.

I was thinking about hanging my buds inside my grow box with lights on and fans blowing inside 24/7 for about a week. With heat ventilation and no moister to create humidity i'm thinking it should be good right?

Thanks, that makes sense. I did water them yesterday and flushed Saturday so I'm sure the pots are still fairly moist. Guess I'll have to find out. If it's still too high I guess it's time to buy a dehumidifier. Without fans, won't the smell get bad?

3 things will cause THC to degrade at an accellerated level, light, air and heat. You want to dry your bud in a dark, dry closet. No fans, no lights, no heat.

That is what an exhaust fan and scrubber are for. Fans that just blow air around should not be used on drying buds.

k cool, I don't use that now so not a problem, only exhaust fan and filter. Thanks for the info. I'm pretty sure the humidity will drop once the pots are gone like you say. I would give you a + rep but it says I can't.

Thanks! I know it won't be anywhere near an 7 ounces! Probably a little over half from each and I'd be happy. Got some pictures of it dried?

For such a short amount of time floweing, your Sour Cream does appear very far along. I am stunned. Thought it was a 10 week strain. Still got a freebie of it waiting, and am thinking about getting it in my next grow after seeing yours. Thanks

Yea, I thought it was a 10 week strain too, kinda surprised at how many trichs are amber at only 6 weeks 2 days.

Have you had light cycles less then 12hrs? I could see Sour Cream finishing so quickly in 10hrs of light, but 6 weeks of 12/12? Wow.

Nope, it's on a light timer. I set it to 12/12 and haven't messed with it since.

8am on 8pm off.

are you going to smoke after drying or you going to do a month of cureing before smoke.
