i also like to trim dry this also helps make the drying slower. i think the lower temp accounts for a lower rh. or so i have found. for instance i have dried in 65f with rh of 40% and it took just as long. do you trim wet or dry?

I trim dry now. I like how my buds came out trimming and manicuring when the buds feel dry to the touch or close to. I just cut the who plant and hang on a string until it's dry enough that the fan leaves come of just by barely touching the stems, then I will let it dry a little more and then manicure it clip the sugar leaves.
as long as it gets before it is consumed. usually about a week. if you flushed and grew properly the cure makes it better but is not essential. the dry is much more important.

Not sure. You can a hydro shop see what they say. Just what I would do.
Whats your rh at and do you have a humidifier?
there is no real need for one. once your plants get to be a good enough size, the will create their own humidity. low humidity shoud not be a problem simply make sure your media does not get too dry and youll be fine. temps and air flow are more important. rh is only an issue when it gets too high.

We do a mix and match ha ha. I like to trim dry but my buddy likes it wet. So to have an even playing field we usually trim half wet and half dry. But since last harvest took forever t trim, I have turned him over to the dark side on trimming it dry. Seems to be slot easier IMO. We have also been using drying racks lately. Saves so much room as apposed to hanging them in cotton string. You are probably spot on with the lower temp causing lower rh. Maybe this go around we will try a little higher temp like you just to see if it fluctuates the rh.

I use a swamp cooler during the warmer days of the year....still using them now.....my rh stays in the 50%-70% and no need for a/c well at least in my veg room,flower room I have both swamp cooler and a/c....during the winter....I just make sure to have everything sealed as possible.....the plants and soil alone produce enough moisture to keep humidity levels up.....at least in my case
i grew the tangerine dream. it was a nightmare. it took forever to flower and did not stop stretching ever. also the buds were not dense at all. the fucked that one up big and rushed it out right after they won best sativa in the cup. their other strains are pretty good. i am growing their blue cheese and it is very nice. not a huge yielder but very nice bud structure and heavy blueberry smell. their violator kush seems to be good. it is a long time proven and tested strain.

I wouldnt stress too much about humidity, its important but more at the seedling / cutting stage. Plus in flower its best to have a very low humidity % . You have to remember they grow this shit in Afghanistan and other dry climates. Hey at least with low humidity you wont ever have to worry about bud rot or mold.
