if buds are dense 1 week drying at 70 degress then into jars or buckets for at least 2 weeks if its as u stated massive i would either hang dry or use a rack but i normally hang the big buds and put litlle buds into rack

An old Kmart would be massive.... A house is kinda normal

so regardless of the size and amount of cannabis, it is best imho to dry it with a relative humidity of around 45% and a temp of 75 to 80F. good air circulation and preferably exhaust not only aids in drying but a preventive towards mold developing. You want an initial quick dry (five to seven days), and a longer curing process that involves removing internal moisture by "burping" bags every day and increasing less often as the next week after taking them from the drying lines moves on.

Not eighty.... Sixty five would be nice .... Slower the better

65? the slower the better? well i disagree. i think a good 7 days, with 45% humidity at 75 tends to turn out well, as long as you continue to cure the bags by letting internal moisture build up and then be released after bucking, sealed back up, released again etc... 65 is pretty cold and relative humidity should always be a very large consideration when debating conditions in a drying room.

I do not think our collective is anywhere near massive ... https://www.rollitup.org/t/gavitas-ogs-and-rockwool.863851/page-2#post-11608663
but my original comment on temps and relative humidity works for us

You must not be drying much.... It would be tough to keep the rh that low w a temp so high

yeah you are correct, not much at all.... dehumidifiers nor exhaust fans or any other easily available environmental controls are really hard to come by and dial in.
i mean it's not like anyone makes controllers or air conditioners that have a magic remote that allow you to have specific set points or anything. and i have never seen a ddehumidifier that is electronically controlled by RH set points that the user can set....
if you didn't catch the sarcasm you wont catch the advice.....

It just loses so much moisture so fast at those temps..... I dunno how u could do it w that much smoke and keep the rh so low

75F, maybe you incorrectly saw 75C and thought i was baking things in an oven? lol
commercial dehumidifiers are radially available, none the less during fair weather conditions just a large exhaust fan creating negative pressure works great. then comes proper curing and burping.

I like a slow dry and a long cure.. If I was selling it to a club I wouldn't care to much.. The faster the better, I guess.
