I just began drying.
Dehumidifier inside grow tent. With a heater able to blow in warm air from outside with a thermostat.
Question will the blue led and red led light from the display of thermostat and dehumidifier blue light harm buds during drying ?
Tent is dark except for the dim glow of the blue and red led lights.
Thanks fellow growers for the opinions.

Slow dry is the key. You need to take the full 7 to 10 days to dry down to 65%. Dry to fast it stinks like lawn clippings. Dry to deep (below 55%) and it will never cure.

this is a sativa grew for 4 months.
the hairs turned brown and I used a magnifying glass and the crystals looked clear. So I figured it was ready.

Looks like you were doing a good job just should’ve asked before chopping. Next time

Ugh. Oh well. I’m learning I guess. I thought 4 months seemed way too long. This is what it looked like before chopping.
