Unable to properly dry, what are my best options?

[dlan]

Been hang drying whole (indoor, smallish) plants in my tent for three weeks, stems don't snap yet, joints still go out pretty quick.

Problem is I am not home enough to empty the dehumidifier three times a day, only two, so it shuts off for a few hours a couple times a day and humidity goes up 70-75%. Been able to keep tent around 55% most of the day.

What should I do? Just keep going? Lower humidity for the time the dehumidifier is on? Hang the individual branches?

Thanks.

Run fresh air into the tent and exhaust it. Keep a fan going. Not aimed at the plants just keeping the air moving.

If the buds are pretty crisp. You can cut it down put it in bins and move it to a cold room with a fan.

Dehum doesn’t have a continuous drain?

I cut a 12" piece of garden hose on the back of mine and place a 4 gallon bucket for it to drain into. You'll have to find the right sized bucket for your dehumdifier.

My damn dehumidifier isn't defrosting like it's supposed to. There's a thermister that needs replacing but I can't find one for my model. Guess I'll be buying a new one in a few months.

Sorry this is late, but thanks so much, you saved my dumb ass, didn't even realize it had one. Hooked a hose up to it and now it can run all day.

That's good to know for future reference, thanks.

Thanks, I dont think this would have worked in this case, just because the humidity here has been ridiculous. It's been hot humid and rainy for like three weeks straight.

Thanks, the garden hose fit on just right. I just used the whole hose cause I didn't want to cut it up.
