Default Drying my Sour Diesel right now! Woot!
Cut down a few of my Sour Diesel, they are currently drying in my closet. Once all of the plants are cut they will all be dried in the grow room where I can control the humidity and heat levels. But for now, the relatively humidity is 63% in the closet with a strong ceiling fan on outside in the main room. You guys think they will be fine in there?

Go to the indoor growing section, you will see a few bud shots form about a week ago. Will post harvest pics once most are chopped and are hanging in the grow room.

See, that is the thing... I am trying to figure out weather or not I can take down a few each day and put em in my closet, while leaving the other ones going (not many amber glands just yet, though I've read varying information on that with regards to harvest time) I am tossing that idea around (leaving some of them going for another 4-5 days) or I am also thinking about just chopping all of them tomorrow and hanging them in the grow room (this would mean the ones in the closet were there for either 24 hours or 48 hours)

If 63% humidity is putting me at risk, I am going to go ahead and chop them all tomorrow and hang in the grow room.

Think I've decided all of them are coming down tomorrow. The glands are quite cloudy, some beginning to appear amber. Can't wait to get home from work for my first ever harvest of a decent sized grow!

Took them all down (pictures to come shortly!) They got taken down Monday night, with the exception of two plants that came down Saturday. Those two have now been trimmed off the buds, and trimmed...then put back into the drying room on a window screen for the next 24 hours, then they will be cured. The buds should be mostly pretty damn dry before being put into jars for curing right? Any advice appreciated.

Also wanted to add... I feel like they are kind of losing their sense of smell a little bit ...I know this happens with fast drying, but it shouldnt with the slow but steady method right? I mean when you squeeze them they reak, but just not as much..does that smell come back during the cure or whats the deal on that one?

Yes, if there is too much moisture, mold will grow. Make sure when you first put them in jars, you open them at least once a day to let the gases escape and to let in some oxygen. Keep them in a dark, cool place to cure. I would open the jars once a day for about 3-5 days. Then open them 2 times a week for 2 weeks. Then once a month after that depending on how big of a stash you have!

I was thinking I would use grocery paper bags laid down the long way, and put an inch or two of bud on the bottom... maybe a zip or zip and a half in there? Do the same proccess you just described but in bags. Seems to be easier when you are dealing with a pound + or herb than using jars..... unless you know of cheap big jars that I could put a zip or so into each one? I am guessing you would do two-three inches of herb (loosely packed) per jar?
