I’m drying at 60% 70 degrees right now. Three days in to it. It should go 12 - 14 days like that before the moisture in the buds will be at 10 - 12%. It will go in grove bags after that for at least a month to cure. Just keep the air moving while they are hanging and you’ll be fine.Hey friends.
So I am coming up pretty quickly on harvest time for my Blueberry Muffins.
I expect to chop them in the next week or so.
In anticipation of drying them, there is just no way I am going to be able to get temps down to 60.
It will actually be challenging to get down to 70 and maintain it. It is just the way it is right now.
With that said... I know the ideal range is 60 temp and 60% rh to start.
In my case with the temp being 70, what is the preferred rh I will want to use in conjunction with that temp?
Still go with 60% rh?
Thanks for chiming in!
I'm struggling to understand that chart a bit, but I know what they are trying to convey.
Terps like Myrcene start free evaporation at 70*F
So what you want is to minimize the temp as much as possible - essentially you are trying to minimize losses just like when you put food in the fridge.
Do what you can do, lower is better but you will still be OK even if you can't get below 70.
Cannabinoids aren't really effected at such low temps, just terps.
You and I are 3 days into drying. Temps won't be as stable as yours though. As for the humidity, what would you say is the upper limit?I’m drying at 60% 70 degrees right now. Three days in to it.

I cringe at anything over 63% when drying.You and I are 3 days into drying. Temps won't be as stable as yours though. As for the humidity, what would you say is the upper limit?
That would be aVPD of 0.95 kPa.Hey friends.

I'm lucky if I can stay below 80 now. Is what it is.Hey friends.

Hi, im in the same situation as you. Its my 3rd grow and have lost the ability to dry at 60-60. The temp is the issue and the average is 73. Im really curious on how it turned out. Not concerned with how it smoke due to me using it for sleep with edibles. Thx for the feedback.I'm lucky if I can stay below 80 now. Is what it is.
