Drying setup, buds on dry rack JUST CHOPPED !!

Meast21 · Mar 16, 2013

Just harvested my bud purple wreck. Here is my drying setup, the fan is about 4 feet away and the breeze barely reaches the rack which has bud on 3 levels.

Do I have to have to turn over the bud or can I just set it and forget it as they are??

flip `em every so often so there's equal air flow/slight normal room draft/whatever that's exposed to both sides.. and nice harvest, am proud of you!

purty purps!!

with that rack, and the fan, they should dry fairly quick,

what are the temps in that closet? and humidity?

those things can be ready to trim in 3 -9 days depending on environment..

Its not drying in a closet, its drying behind my close rack because the clothes rack blocks the light from across the room. THe temp where the buds are drying ranges from 68-71 and humidity ranges from 45% to 53%.

Thanks. I'm guessing anywhere between 75g -100grams....... NOt all the bud turned purple is this normal?

Looks like it'll be quite tasty, but you should have trimmed them a bit before starting to dry. Trimming is MUCH easier right when you cut.

I trimmed some of them... Also smoke is all mine, so I could just pull the trim off before I pack my bowl !!!

I've always just trimmed off the tips of sugar leaves where there is no Trichomes.
Some people make hash with all the saved sugar leaf trimmings.
