I dont know how advanced it is but I've got a problem. I'll be heading out of town for 10 days just as most of my plants are finishing. If I chop them b4 I go it will mean that they hang for the duration of my absence. I expect that when I get back they will be toast and over dried big time.
It seems like I dont have many options. I was thinking I would shut the lights off and just let them sit in their pots. At least that way I could start the cure the way i usually do. A few days hanging. A few days in paper bags and then to the jars.
I could really use some input on how to handle my absence. Its 10 days before I go. Even if I chop the ripe ones now they will hit the jars just b4 I go. That's a long time to not burb the jars and I'll come back to mold. What the %'ju@ am I gonna do? Any ideas??

I could probably chop the Critical Kush in front but the WW in back needs more time.

Water it a last time...turn the lights off and go...keep the exhaust and intake going.
Some leave a plant in dark for 3 to 5 days anyway.

Thanks @GT21 I like it. That was the only route I could come up with so the affirmation is comforting. I've been looking into people leaving the girls in the dark for a few days and though I dont know the motive it's a go.
The thought of drying them to a crisp was breaking my heart especially after the multiple problems I've had with this run. Ill just pull the plug on the lights but keep the air moving as is. Thanks Bud.
