immediate harvest help asap PLZ!

been literally 10 days of my harlequin drying in a lil 3x3 tent in 62-72F temps n 52-72 humidity mostly around 60,62-65%. yet idk if its done yet n im confused on how the snap test works. it went from bendy to being hard as a soft tree twig or smthng then just as of a few days ago so 7 days it was bending like bending a frozen mcdonalds straw in half but theres no crack or crunch? is it ready to trim or how much longer? im worried ab it now. the 3x3 is exhausting to outside w a inline fan on high except for today i turned it down lower. i just didnt want there to be much smell so i had it on high speed for 10 days. first grow n harvest ever btw

At those temps and humidity ranges I wouldn't hesitate to go another 2-3 days of drying especially if they're going into a jar or turkey bag or (enclosed storage).

ok ty for ur input/help! ik its like 7-10 days normally but can go up to 14 days but i did a bend/snap test every day since she was chopped n i just cant help but to worry. been working hard to try for top shelf flower my first grow/try n im still praying. just a few days ago i touched the buds n they were still very sticky yet now they're just fluffly n hardly sticky at all so im worried

It has a lot to do with the ambient humidity in the room. When it’s balmy it takes longer to dry fully. I’ve had some plants go 18 days during warm/sticky weather up in New England. You can’t hurt anything going a few more days. Wait until the branches are snappy; then you can jar without worrying too much about moldy bud. Even then I wouldn’t seal the jars completely until you are certain the buds will stay dry; leave the lid on loose or even upside down open a crack for air exchange for the first 24-48 hrs.

I jarred some last night. I've been leaving the lids loose for a day at least for awhile now. Great tip.

It's up to the tempearture & humidity. I would try to tighten things to 60-65 °F / 60-65% RH, I notice this as well, when weed is dry hanging you get that initial snappy stalks and then it turns into more of a straw, then it snaps again. That is normal and yes weird. It's just how the plant dries.

Dry hanging in the correct conditions will take 14-16 days.
