Howdy yall. Just wondering what I should have my temp and humidity at during veg, and flowering, and than during drying.

And during drying should I
1. Trim bud down completly before drying, just remove fan leaves and let dry, or dry before trimming?
2. Have fan directly moving air on buds, or moving air around.
3. Should I leave the door to the dry room open or closed?
Thanks, any answers greatly appreciated.

Wow, a lot of questions. I don't know that there is a perfect temp/humidity range but here's what has worked for me:
Veg: 7478F and 60-65% RH
Flowering: 78-82F and 45-50% RH

As far as trimming options, I'd try them all and see which works better for you. There is no right or wrong way, it's what fits your schedule and preferences. I personally trim the fans and hang the whole plant which usually gives me a longer dry. I also keep the drying room in the 60-65% RH range which allows me to hold them if I don't have time to trim them right away, they don't dry out. No direct air blowing on them is about the only advice I'd give in the drying process. You can have a fan blowing/moving air in the room but don't have air directly blowing on the plants, they'll dry too fast which doesn't lend itself well to things like smell and taste later.

1) either or...mostly preference but more work/effort to trim when dried
2) do NOT have the fan blowing on drying buds...have a gentle fan blowing indirectly
3) closed....to keep the room dark
