If i have to choose between two days i always go with the later of the two

What do you think how long the drying process will need at about 20 °C (68 °F) and 53,7% RH with your experience?

Your temp n humidity sounds good i will probably aim for somthing the same RH below 60 and temp between 20°c /22°c and a dry time of maybe 2 weeks / longer. U have spent all your time growing these babys no need to rush the final steps i been doin some research on grow with jane and seems the longer the better. then you should have the best buds to cure also. I read you dont want any high heat it degrades the thc, somthing along them lines and high humidity you will run the risk of mold also u need good air circulation in and out im no pro but im sure you got this well done on the grow looks awesome. How much did each plant yield wet and dry if u could tell use that would be great knowledge i cannot guess looking at the plant but they look healthy :muscle::raised_hands::partying_face::partying_face::confetti_ball::tada::confetti_ball:

I always shoot for 60F and 60 RH. You’ll want a fan to get air movement around the plant. Just dont put a fan pointed directly at the plants. It’ll dry them out too soon. My goal is to slow dry for 16 days.

At your temps and humidity. Im guessing 7-10 days. Give or take. Also keep in mind the first few days the rh is going to be higher. Wet plants. As they dry out it will drop. There are other factors like where you live also…

Thanks for your answer @ItsOzzie

I still have this 3 fans inside the tent. 2 on the floor are turning around. Not directly pointing on the buds. I was downstairs and had a look inside the tent. If I open you can feel the good airflow and buds are moving a little bit.

I will keep an eye on temp and RH.

I understand that the moisture will go out from the buds with time and the RH will drop.

Can I add my humidifier to keep the RH for example at 55% or is it a bad idea?

The tent is in basement by the way. Heatings there are off. Outisde next room I measure 16,9 °C at 57% RH.

And the weather forecast will be like this.

Are you doing dry or wet trimming? I do dry trimming.

I have my humidifier connected to a controller. So it will turn on and keep it around 60RH. Where i live the summer rh here is in the low 40s, winter is higher around 60rh. I keep my tent in the garage. So, rain can be a factor also. If it rains, rh will spike up. Thats where i needed an exhaust and good airflow so it wouldn’t mold.

Before i had all the equipment i was drying in my closet. Used an a/c to keep it around 60F and my house rh normally stays in the 50-60 range.

I dry trim, i hang the whole plant. I just pull the fan leafs off. It helps prolong the drying process to get my desired 16 days. This might not work for some in higher RH environments.

@ItsOzzie - Maybe I will go little bit higher with RH and try to reach 14 days. Then we can make next trimming and start curing party at saturday in 2 weeks. :rofl: :partying_face:

I have a smart heating in this room and a smart humidifier. It’s not a ready solution from the cannabis market, just smart devices. As I am in the basement, the conditions are very stable at all. And I can play a lot with windows and doors.

Further I will reactivate my weather station tomorrow for more datas. Batteries are empty outside. I will do it tomorrow.

14 days is good. Should get good quality. Every couple days check the stems. Thats the best way to know when its ready for jar.

I really don’t know @Grant2047 - I never weigh them wet, because it’s just for personal use. I hope for 250g (8,8 oz) dried minimum. I would be satisfied about it. And anything above very happy. But I will tell you the excatly result after trimming before they goes into the jars.

The result like I promised @Grant2047 @BluntForceTrauma420
