    Arrow Drying room problems. +reps

    My humidity is extremely low for drying. its 25% ish and it should be 50-60% 65F-70F. Its winter and my heater really dehumidifies the room. I have bought a humidifier but its not good enough to get the whole room up, but i dont want to put it in the actual dry room section because to much humidity what should i do? By the way havnt chopped them yet just planning ahead, i DONT WANT THEM TO DRY TOO FAST

    you can make a mister, or bubler
    put a airstone/mister in water it brings up the humidity quite a bit, add more if needed
    What i say obviously is all i lie, i like fooling around with people, its a big joke...

    25 is good bro..id try to higher it to 35-40%...here's what u do take a couple towels soak them in water then ring in out so its not dripping all over then hang em in ur dry room..this will raise it to about 45-50% and u dont wanna go any higher then that for dryin..its called dryin cuz u want it to be dry like under 50%RH

    Def home grower, dude i would even dry hanging the buds up and hang a few moist towels or paper towels if anything... this should bring your humidity to the desired range of 50-65%. If its too late and your buds are drying too quick you can put them in the jars for a day then back out in the dry box. Redo this is needed. Good luck happy growing

    i live in the desert where the humidity is always 20% or lower i hang for 2 or 3 days. i check everyday to make sure their just barely crispy on the very tips but the stems are still bendy, and the middle is still quite green. i jar them for one day (the next day the jar will have condensation in it). Then i paper bag them for usually 2-3 days. when u take the buds out they should be nice and sticky and the buds will feel crispy on the outside. i usually jar them again. After a day in the jar if the buds are still too green i just alternate between the paper bag and the jar. In the low humity its kind of tedious but taking the time to do it right will be night and day. good luck
