Question about harvesting

Okay so my papaya and gelato are taking off budding up pretty good. My green crack is no so much taking off just really started showing one month into flowering her flowering she is a sativa and I know they take their sweet time but when I goto harvest my Indicas does anyone have any ideas on how I would be able to harvest and hang and still have my green crack flowering. Or a hack on harvesting somewhere else ideas anything will help new grower. Green crack n my gelato both sprouted at same time

I'm not sure I understand. Do you mean from a space perspective? You will need a dark place to hang dry. I ran into a similar problem with this last grow and ended up buying a small grow tent just to dry in. You could also but one of those portable fabric/plastic closets from Walmart or something.

Some people use a cardboard box with a small exhaust fan. Out depends on your humidity levels.

As long as you have some airflow and the right humidity (50-60% is good. If you're super OCD then 50% for the first 3-5 days, 55-60%. Its winter and 25% humidity here so I actually set up an exhaust fan to run 15 minutes 6x per day to keep the humidity in the tent around 50%. Once the humidity started dropping,I changed it to 4x daily, then 2x, and now I actually have a humidifier in there keeping it around 55-60%.

My next time around I will use the tent 4 clones, propagating, and mother plants.

On a side note, if you don't have one already, get a jeweler's loupe ($9 on Amazon) to check trichomes for ripeness. I've had a few strains where the pistils were all dark amber, but the trichomes were still very clear.

Any semi enclosed space will be good for drying if you need the same area to continue flowering. I build a drying rack that is literally just an old stereo rack with two contractor size trash bags cut open and taped to the sides as walls. Ran some twine to hang the plants from with bread ties. Air gets in passively but flow is limited. Keeps out the light; perfect for hang drying. You can use a bigass box or a closet similarly.
