What's up guys, long time!
I cut my pineapple skunk at the bases on the 19th, it is now the 22nd. I immediately removed the large fans and left all flowers on large stems. I have some very large colas. I got a little cocky and tried the 7/70/70 method. 70 degrees, 70 humidity, 7 days. Well here on day three upon thorough mold inspection I caught some on my larges cola where the individual flower buds meet the main stem. We all know that this method is perfect conditions for mold but I have been struggling with drying too fast and loosing pungency. That's another story. Matter at hand is, how to stop this mold in its tracks and maintain a slow dry for at least 3 more days. My initial reaction was to drop the humidity. I have a humidifier and a dehumidifier. I set the dehumidifier to 40% and the humidifier to 50% so that they will even out somewhere between these numbers. It's pouring here at this moment and the ambient humidity is 70%, this effects my conditions because my fresh air is drawn from outside. I have great airflow in my room. Should I just crank the humidity down to around 30% for a period of time and then bring it back up? I need advice from someone who has encountered this problem and has beat it.
