Well my drying method would be as follows
First 3days temps should be around 20c with about 50% humidity to start the drying process quickly and helps close the window for rot to creep in… then after 3 days lower your temperature to about 17-18 degrees to slow down the drying process and humidity at about 60% again this will help slow down the drying process.. with quality a slow and steady dry wins the race… make sure you’ve got fans blowing on floor or walls not directly on your buds because they will dry un-evenly and last but not least make sure your dry room is dark…light degrades THC… then cure and finally sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labour 👌💨

Fans are on the walls I'm anticipating 10 days before cure buds are pretty big I'll drop temp to 65 in the morning 🙌
 
quick sidenote: i notice my smaller buds drying faster then the bigger ones… i’ve only had it up for 2-3 days, and i checked on them today (im also using a humidifier-check-thingy 😅 forgot the name of it..) and the smaller ones are already at 10-11% humidity.. should i pull the smaller ones and start curing already? I dont notice much grass/hay smell from it eithee 🤔 my temps are not ideal im at 67f 51rh

Yeah get the small ones jarred up in mason jars and can always put hygrometer in the jars to let you know when to burp the but I just tend to take the lid off for 15 minutes a few times a day… my pal uses humidity packs once cured to keep them at a perfect RH they seem to work really well for him

Ah okey, will pull out the small ones for jaring 👌 i do have hygrometers to keep an eye once thet are in the jars.. another question tho.. do you "seal" ur grove bags that cures long? And would some of the small buds be ready for some extraction æ? Or will the taste be off? 🤔 thanks for the help
