    Power went out while drying harvest

    Power went out and has been out for 2 days now. They are in a sealed dark room and temp is 73 with humidity also around 73. I go in there and it doesn't feel hot or humid. Colder if anything. I have a gas generator and could run the dehu but that will raise the temp and lower the humidity...

    Hello everyone, I just made a batch of shatter with 3 ounces of trim. Used very high-quality butane, hot water bath purge for 20 minutes, then 72+ hours vacuum purge with 80 to 90 Fahrenheit heat. The shatter turned out glass like, but had a horrible bitter taste which I associate with...

    The longer the curing the better the high?

    I’ve had buds curing in mason jars for close to 6 months now and in the beginning - after curing for over a month, I wasn’t that impressed. They were my first grow. Anyway, when smoking it now, the high is amazing. Does anyone agree that the longer you can cure the better?

    Curing Question - Does RH variate depending on the week?

    I'm currently curing my bud and I am wondering how it works. The buds are sitting around 67-68%, and after I burp them I let them get back down to around 64-65%. After some time, the RH increases again. So my question is; should RH be different depending on the week? For example, is it normal...

My hubby let me do my first trim alone (5 plants) up all night lol but we did the usual cardboard box and then hanging inside of it closed. As well as the few fall offs in a box flat. I tried to tie...

    Humidity below 60% in curing jars

    Hey, So they’ve only been in jars for ~24 hours, but most are saying ~50-55%. What’s the best option to increase this? Or do they need a couple days to calibrate? I do have boveda packs but I was trying not to use them. I will put one in each jar if recommended. *it dried for just under 5...

    How long does the minimum cure take?

    Hi. I’ve been reading through different opinions on curing. Some say it takes at least 3 months, others say 3 weeks. Since curing raises the quality of the flower I would like to know how long you guys leave the buds to cure until you start smoking from them?
