Here's a couple of my Nirvana Short Riders from a few months ago. 400w HPS, 20/4, custom organic soil mix, 4x4x8 tent. Sorry for the sideways photos. Stinky, stanky buds when all cured. Good stuff.

Help with drying autos
my short riders will be ready in 2-3 weeks. My problem is I live in Florida and the heat and humidity is really high. Temps in the high 80's and humidity is 70's. Any ideas how to dry without getting mold. I can't bring them inside until they can go in jars. Thanks for help
Controlled environment.... buy a dehumidifier

Dehumidifiers don't work to well outside, and yes if you read it again, he said he CANNOT bring the harvest inside until put into jars, at which point they should either be burbed or sealed until use.

How in this case would a dehumidifier work if to be used at this point, inside the house in jars???:confused:

Sorry but dude even if he was wrong in his quote, why would you call him a loser??? Is it friction you are after, because those unkind words can cause friction.

Keep it real, but no need to be-little someone. A simple I think you might of misread it, would of been suffice.

Women on the rag and children act like this, sorry but those are my most unkind words that you may see.

Trust me I could cuss up a storm, too just like the rest of ya, but I believe over the net is childish and B.S. period. Face to face is the way I handle things if it must be that way, but to divulge yourself into petty comments, name calling, and bickering is STUPID.

I'm almost starting to believe there are alot of youngens on this site that need to be under moderation.:wall:

On a positive note once again,

Here are the Snowryders from yesterday.

Days 10 & 11

First and foremost... Obviously a dehumidifier won't work in the great outdoors. Second.... I am basically saying to do it right you need a controlled environment.
Don't grow cannabis if you don't have the simple means of drying it properly. Get a shed or something.... do it right.

Pak, there is already friction between me and the nub above. That's why he made the worthless comment he did. Fucking skilless trolls ftl

Well if you aren't prepped to go all the way from seed to the curing stage, then I totally agree, you shouldn't do it without planning ahead.

That is completely obvious as well.

I just really hate looking through my subscribed threads and first thing in the morning I read that. If you guys have friction, P.M. yourselves and get it over with, don't keep posting for others to read, it kinda makes the shot caller look bad, even if you are right.

I really don't know whats going on, nor do I want to know, just keep it between you two, and not on the threads.

Not trying to be an ass or anyones father, just trying to keep this peaceful and a grow thread.

Po Boy, try and build a little box/ shack/ shed /??? of some sort, that will fit a small ac/dehumidifier combo inside, with some computer fans, to keep good airlflow. Build either screened racks or hang them. Where you live and if this always the case, then this is a must and an investment that you have to make. Yes, you do have to have a controlled environment in your case, it is just too extreme and you will have done lots of work for nothing.

Drying/ curing should be done as slowly as possible, without the threat of mold, or drying too fast and making it smell and taste like hay.
(67-68 degree's, humidity just below 40.) That is a good target range.

for further info. try to look up a thread that talks about drying and curing.

I switched to red bulbs today for the 4' 6 T-5, lights are now set for 12/12 for the White Sharks, flower time. I want them to be atleast 3 weeks in flower before I pollenate them.

57 days total in veg. for the White Sharks.

The Snowryders are now on days 11 & 12 and looking good so far.

They will now be under 24 hrs. of light under the 2' T-5 for now.

SNOWRYDERS i highly recomend this strain easy to grow, very good smoke, very good yields mine were between 26g and 49g, pretty good 4 a plant that states 18g-36g, and who ever said you cant TOP autoflowers is WRONG, in my new grow i have topped one of my snowryders because i decided to grow them again, and it is the pick of the bunch the best plant hands down its gonna double the yield of the others, so i no what im doin now with this strain, ill put a picture of it up shortly.

Great news!!!

I sure hope mine turn out as good as yours look. Very interesting on the topping, I might try that on 1. I have also seen a vid on utube that someone's auto got self-topped and it did great as well.

I'll have my daily Snowryder pics posted later, and have the White Sharks pics probably every other day now.

:smile:Today are days 12 & 13 for the Snowryders.

Soil still moist, still no watering, maybe tomorrow.

Light is about 6" from the tops, on average.

#1 is 1 1/2" tall
#2 is 1 3/4" tall
#3 is 2" tall
#4 is 1 3/4" tall

Just like the White Sharks pictures, the stem is getting thick above the cotyledon leaves.
Probably cannot notice yet from the pics, but soon for sure.:mrgreen:

Hells yah brotha! The topped auto looks great. Not all auto strains will do well but I did see one other youtube video with a auto topped that produced. If I recall it was a Dinafem Roadrunner #1..... let me find it...

Yup, i was right, take a look, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2oJ_6rWvoo Probably the same one you saw

Hey bobmarley1234, where did you top your Snowryder at (between which 2 nodes)? And how many total nodes were there just before being topped? I do not usually count the single blade leaf as a node. I count my first node usually the first true leaf which is 3 bladed most of the time.

So this is how I count: cotyldeon, single blade, First node (3 leaf), Second node (5 leaf or 7), Third node etc....

I cannot wait to upgrade my space, and lighting source. Your plants look great!!!

:eyesmoke:Days 13 & 14 Snowryders, Day 59 White Sharks (Day 2 Flower)

Just got done watering. I added 1 tsp Cal-Mag+, 1 tsp of epsom salt (still yellowing), to a gallon of water and pH'd to 6.5 for the White Sharks.

The Snowryders got 1/2 tsp Cal-Mag+, 1 tsp of epsom salt mixed in a gallon jug at 6.5 pH. :?Forgot this was in the water hope it will be fine. Just enough to flood the top of the container, and about the same in the trays (bottom fed) so the soil could take what it wanted, and not dry out.

PakaloloHui,
Thanks for the advice for drying outside and for defending me. During winter I have no problem growing and drying outside - just never tried in summer. Thanks again
