My dry room is inside my 4x4 tent. I'm trying to replicate the cannatrol temps and humidity.
Room is at a constant 68f, 57% humidity this entire dry.
Small oscillating fan pointed at floor, intake exhaust hose at bottom left, exhaust fan running on low, top right.

I'm trying things a little different this round by using grove bags and a moisture meter guiding me for this dry.

Grove states flower must be at 10%-12% moisture to be able to put buds into the grove bags for optimum results.

I had 2 plants of slurricane that made small buds. When I checked most of the buds with a moisture meter they were from 10% to 11.5%. For a test I filled two 1 oz bags 75% of the way and put a hygrometer in there. After 12 hours hygrometer in bags are reading 57% humidity.... perfect

My question is ... if my room is perfectly dialed in, is there a need for me to worry about getting the 10%-12% level buds into the grove bags? Or would simply leaving them untrimmed hanging in the dry room for a longer dry be more ideal, will they stay at that 10-12% range? or do I risk the bud moisture dropping too low?

I only say this because today would the start of day 5 of drying. Feels like I'm trying to put them in the grove bag too soon. But at the same time if the grove bag is holding at 57% when sealed and the bud moisture is reading that ideal range of 10-12%... then it was the perfect time to put it in?

I was shooting for a 10 day dry at the very least, but these small buds were reading done. My much larger buds from the 2 other strains aren't even close to being dry.

My one buddy grows fire and he leaves his stuff hanging in the dry room at 60f, 60% rh for months and it stays sticky, smelly, and fresh... idk I just don't want to screw these up

Any advice would be appreciated.
