Simple, take em out of your box, and leave em on some mesh/wire rack open in a room with a fan blowing on em.
Id say your prob is the box is to small to dissipate the moisture quick enough, so the humidity is rising.
I take it the box is ventilated, not just a closed box with a fan inside?

K, re-read and seen its ventilated, just get em out in the open with a fan on em.

Oh, you're trying to dry inside a box? No that's not good. They need open air with some circulation. When the moisture evaporates out of the buds it is still trapped in the box. That is why your humidity is so high.

I guess my question about molasses is gonna be igonored for a second time?

I wouldn't think mold would start in 5 hours, that's a pretty short time. If you get them out in the open now I don't see why you shouldn't be ok.
Man that's a whole lot of beautiful herb.

im sorry smoke a blunt im crazy full minded right now, yea i used molasses started 3rd week of flowering, cut it off like a week ago, and i used it like 1/3 maybe 1/2 waterings adding like a good tblspoon or more per 2 litres( about a gallon) and it seemed to work fine, i also used Advanced Nutrients 3 part Grow-Micro-Bloom system, bomb it seems, and i got them out in the open and its like 70% still, its gotta be the fact im in my basement should i try and dry upstairs? cause this is scarin me

and thanks again for all the positive feedback, it was my first grow and i really didnt know what to expect, i guess i did so well cause i stopped myself from growing for 2 years because i just didnt think i could do it, but ive been reading up on it since i was 16 (im 19 now) so im quite well informed, i may not seem it now with how much i panick, but thats just human nature and second guessing, im just so happy i made it through the whole grow!

no i chopped a lot of the leaves off earlier, and the plant grew a bunch of ingrown ones to make up, ive learned the leaves to cut now, it turned out awesome i learned so much
strain btw is Aurora Indica by nirvana although i dont recommend purchasing from there from what ive heard recently
Heritage is NL5 x Afghani and im looking at my sugar coated buds in awe
Im drying in my basement is that a problem? do people usually have more humidity down in the basement cause of all the piping and shit? like 90% of my basement is fully finished, except my grow and drying room, what should i do does anyone know?

I would get a humidity/temp displayer and defiently have a fan blowing lightly on them...
Im pretty sure ur basement will be fine..Heat rises so i guess humidity wont be as bad?
Just keep humidity about 50-60% and the temps in the low 70's

i got the hygrometer-thermo its 22 deg celsius (like 72) and its 70% humidity, it could be broken but i DOUBT it, and my top lights i only used about 5 near the top of both plants, and they were within 3-5 inches from top colas at ALL times, never farther, remember we are working with CFLs here, no intensity for the life of it

im thinkin its maybe just so humid cause i JUSt cut the buds, and its really just pumping it all out, and i really cant do anything, cause my gauge is like inches from drying buds, does anyone know the like desired and minimal % of humidity that mold will form at? so i know where to get to?
