Where to start.
After the harvest, I disassembled everything. The propagation box became the dry box and the flowering box returned to veg. I laid a 6 inch non oscillating fan in the dry box on low just for steady breeze.
The dry box needs venting and clean intake. So, I set up the 6" carbon filter outside the dry box going in.
That feeds the dry box with clean filtered air. (Replacement pre-filter soon)
The exhaust from there goes to the back bottom of the veg box via 4" duct hosing. Taking in all the damp air from the dry box.
And from there, the 6" inline at the top of the veg box pulls everything out and throws it into the room.
I haven't hooked up any of the bells or whistles. The whole box is getting cleaned today. I still need to wire it and put in fans and timers and the humidifier and all that. I think this grow will be slightly more organized than the last. (You can only get better as you go)
Because nothing is hooked up, we need to do what I refer to as burping the dry box. We turn the fan on for a little while until both boxes have negative pressure and a nice smell comes out the exhaust. That's how I know the air has been replaced. 3 times a day. Hoping for a week of drying.
All the trim and clippings are in that paper bag. We are going to save it all in a jar for the 2022 blend of butter. All our plants combined... maybe.
Any thoughts or concerns?
