80 percent RH in dry room

[Wristle]

Cut my plant yesterday and took all the fan leaves off. It's hanging in a 100 sq/f storage room. Last night it was 73f and slowly coming down. RH was 60%.

Overcast this morning and it's humid. Dry rooms climbed to 75/80% and 68/70f. My dehumidifier has decided to stop working and I can't get another.

I've half opened the door and have a fan on the floor pushing air out and another fan near the top of the door blowing in. Nothing is blowing directly on the plant as its around a short corner. AC going in the room the storage room is connected to.

Am I at a serious risk of mold here or should I be okay?

With the fans on i doubt you get mold during drying.
Problem is you cant store in jars when 80% humid, its too wet and in the jars you can get fungus.
Before i had a dehumidifier i just checked my digital humidity meter and waited on a dry day (less than 60%) to do the last drying and storing in jars.
You can also put a humidity pack in the jar. And open regularly the first days (only in dry environment).

I'm doing the same thing right now (in fact I still have to finish a little bit of trimming), it's pouring rain and humidity's in the 70s, just keep the fan on, it'll be fine

Just what i was hoping to hear. Thanks.

I hadn't thought about it being really humid when I go to jar. Glad you pointed that out.

Just remember drying and curing right is the incredibly important last step before consuming.
Drying and curing the right or wrong way can mean a huge difference in quality.
Its an art you can learn little by little with experience.
Now its easy to find information, anything is Googleable...in my early days I depended on books, a few magazines and friends with some experience.
I better not tell how I dried and cured my first harvest many years ago ...
Good luck !
