So once I do chop the girls down, given that they're relatively small plants, what's my best bet?
Just hang them upside down for a day in the shed or should I try and trim them immediately.
I've always trimmed immediately but don't really know the best practices here.
I pull all the fan leaves off and hang branch by branch, then about 3 days into the dry ill start trimming the sugar leaves,
that way the sugar leaf is sepreate from the fans, i run alot of trim for ice water hash/bho/dry sift so this works best for me. Once in down to an 80% trim ill knock the branches down into smaller pieces, as it all dires putting it closer and closer together untill its bagged to keep humidity up around 60%.
After about 7 days after chop, ill finish the rest of the trimming up, allowing you to let humidity drop to around 55%, i then jar it up 28 grams per jar and throw a 62% humidity boveda pack in
Ill insert a few pics of various stages of what im talking about.
Theres a 1000 ways to kick a bear in the balls
- but the main thing is to not over dry, or dry to quickly, you wanna shoot for about 5-7 days at no more than 65% humidity 25 degrwes celsius. Digital hygrometers work mint at helping you save those good smells.
Cheers
