Good afternoon,

I finally cut down my final two bitchs after a long 11 weeks & 6 days of flowering (still think they could of went longer). I was gonna take some pics but the camera was dead still from a rave i went to.... slammin!!

Any ways i cant get the conditions right....... Normally its about 16c but with the fucking humity at 60-65%
So i put a dehumitifier in there it gets the humity down to 50% but the bastard tempature goes up to 19c, i'm also using a c/f.

Take a look, any suggestions????

well it should be drying between 15-18c and humity should be 45-50% but i can't acheive both!! de-humitifier brings up the temp

nice buds there natty, well done all looking good and bet it will be a nice smoke.

dunno what to say about your temps and worries of mold or rot. hopefully some1 will pop in and say if them not ideal conditions will still be good enough for you to dry it nicely.

have ya tried a little pipe of that bubble yet?

Temps and humidity seem fine, I would get them buds off that newspaper on the floor though. The bud mixes with the ink, not good.

Sorry to bring up old topic.

Im going to be cutting this weekend and remember reading about the ideal condiditons for drying. Did a search and came across this thread. Thought its better to just resurect this than to start a new thread.

I was hoping to dry in my flower room but as the plants are going to be done weeks apart its not possible. I am now going to be drying in my downstairs cupboard but was wondering if temps of 18-20 C and RH of betwen 50-70% is ok? Its either that or a carboard box in my bedroom but not sure what temp and RH in that would be like.

I find that constantly exhausting air, even a gentle flow, does me real well. My rh swings from 45% on up to 65% with higher peaks on downpours. temps range from 65 ℉ to 75℉. The fan is a very quiet bathroom fan and feeds into my flower room with the large cf and fan.

eta: oops. Sorry Rambone. blushing.gif Forgot to answer your question. I think either situation is fine as long as you use a decent exhaust fan to keep air moving so that additional moisture does not build up. It's a vapor/moisture exchange thing y'know?
