So my drying room is 55 degrees Fahrenheit and 54 % humidity I know the humidity is ideal however I find the temperature a little bit too cold cuz I don't know if it will affect my outcome
Is 55 degrees Fahrenheit too cold to dry marijuana

I've found that the ideal humidity to dry in changes based on temperature. I'd happily dry at %54 humidity if my temps were around 65 f, but if 55 f is all you can manage you may want to try and get the rH down a little bit. My formula has always been to keep temps between 62 and 70 with an rH of 55ish and I don't stray from that, so maybe someone else who dries at cooler temps can chime in and recommend a humidity range that works for them. Best of luck!

It also depends on whether you wet trim or dry trim, and how much you break down the plant. A wet trimmed plant broken down into colas and branches will dry faster than a plant hung to dry whole and to be dry trimmed. I hang my plants whole and I dry trim so 60/60 is a no go for me. I've had mold at those numbers. But for some it may be perfect.

No it's not. I've had my temps dip to the 40s drying. Only for a 2-4 days tho...Smoked like a champ when they were done...

THIS IS A TEST!
I have a small auto drying right now in a cold area to test it.
I am doing it in my yard in the shed.
Its dark, cold between 55 and 40 degrees.
Rh sits at 35% in there. Well sealed from outside and moisture.
Dry trim
I'm at day 19 of drying. Still have a day or 2 to go. No mold and smells good.
Usually I dry at a 60/60. Which gives me about 2 weeks dry time.
A group of us out here grow with and for each other. My buddy had 2 small autos looking damn near identical. So he's drying at the 60/60 and I'm doing this. Shits and giggles really but intrigued on how it effects the bud.

Yeah I don't know.. these different type of strains seems like it's taking longer to dry it's been a week now and it's still kind of wet I think I need to get the temperature up at least to 60 degrees thank you guys for all the good info and advise

You might find they’ll sweat if jarred and brought into a warmer environment. Best to pop a hygrometer in there to check.
