Before I forget thank you all for your help on this forum!! Today is my Harvest day!!! Now should I cut her down from the stem at the bottom & dry? Is it better to just pull her up from the roots & let her dry with the roots still connected? Basically just pulling outta the dirt​

Cut it. I cut, trim and hang one branch at a time. Just makes it easier for me to deal with in small sections and if I don't finish I leave what's left on the plant til the next day..
congrats on the harvest..

Yea you want to cut each branch and hang them individually. Too much stuff to dry like extra stem and leaf can create mold issues.

Congrats. Now try to be patient and let it slow dry and cure in glass jars for 30 days, and you'll really enjoy it when its actually ready :).

If you want a quicker dry then trim and hang one branch at a time, but for a slower dry you can hang the whole plant. If you go with a slower dry be sure to watch for mold.

Move some air (lightly) and keep humidity from getting too high. Grayish powder looking with webbing..:weed:

Leave the bud to dry in your room, you want good air circulation, dont blow fans directly on the bud or it will speed drying to quickly and make it a harsh smoke. As for mold, you want your drying conditions to be around 18-24 degrees C, and with a humidity of 45-55% anything below will also cause a harsh smoke and above that will cause rot to happen. Hope this helps

Just like this guy said, you don't want it to dry out to fast.
