yup, you can wick that str8 to a tank and collect it, but just be careful. I totally advocate minimalist growing, but dont over rule the benefits of good air flow/ exchange, even if you make a bellow and pump that shit yourself LOL. If you are in and out, then you will be the exchanger for now. I find a good dry spell towards the end helps remind the plant to ripen but of course too dry is just as bad for many molds and pests.
Do I recal you said you grew auto's too? just my cents worth but Auto's you should run in pots mate imo, you can get more per season that way, eg 2-3 crops not 1 grow. Even people this far north are doing min 2 grows a season with auto's in pots and hoop houses. Most autos in the soil direct grow like Photoperiod plants
