  1. Almost ready 4 harvest. I'm setting up a drying area... Does it need to be dark or w light??? good ventilation waht other thins are key

    Thnx
     
  2. Dark, same humidity as the normal grow. Ventilation is key. There's really good YouTube videos about it. Key factor is don't let it dry to quick and don't let it mold.
     
  3. Cure before dry - you want to keep it cool (60-65 degrees) and about 50% humidity for a few days and well ventilated with very good air movement throughout. You can let it get a little warmer after this, don't exceed 75 degrees or 55% humidity. Don't let the room get below 40% humidity or your flowers will dry too fast.


    In the first 72 hours, depending where in the world you are, it can be tricky keeping the humidity of the drying room around 50% so take the necessary steps to ensure that. It can also be tricky keeping it above 40%, depending where you are, so make the right adjustments.
