Default Wats the idea temp for drying buds?
OK last year i had to dry my buds outside in a shed in the hot sun, which was my only possiablilty so i had to do it. I got really hot and humid in the shed, and the byds dried out way to fast, so this year im going to have to do something else instead. What is the ideal temperature range for drying and how high should humidity be?

i had a similar problem with an attic, that yeah got way to hot and dried way to fast for my liking. I'm not sure what the 'ideal' temperature is, but i would say anywhere from 65-80 with a realativly low humidity (to discourage mold) but not too low because the buds will dry like in your shed. Having a fan in the room is deffinatly key, but not directly on the buds they will dry to fast, just have it moving the air in the room around.

P.S The real reason i responded was to say i have that same drawing that you used for an avatar at college (of course undoctored)

as long as the air keeps being circulated i think the temp should be 85 or lower and keep the humidity down

Ideal is the inside of a refrigerator. Cool and low humidity, but most folks use theirs to keep the beer chilled, and the darn shelves are in the way.

Dark; 75 degrees (or less), 50% humidity (or less), works
