Hi guys I have been trying to dry and cure after harvesting some sensi-seed super skunk autos, I started with 4 the final 1 is about to be harvested soon.
I'm using a 600w hps setup with 6" fan and carbon filter . The temps have been kind of high recently (30+ /90+)as it is getting nearer to summer so I switched my cycle so lights are on over night which is helping keep temps down better.. my final plant has been flowering 63 days and is due to come down tonight as trichomes and getting close to 10% amber..
My problem is my buds are losing most if not all potency when they are dry and even curing is not bringing the funk back..
I have tried a few different methods all within a spare tent at 60rh 21degrees with a 5" inline fan pulling out the top.. then jarred with hygrometers and burped down to 60-62rh slowly
Drying net -dried way to quickly
Stems cut at base and trimmed and hung from sting.. some not trimmed but still hung * both for 3-5 days snap and not snapping
Hung whole plant for about 7 days after wet trim and burped in jars
I don't know if the high temps have evaporated/ killed the majority of terpenes or if my drying method is not ideal...
Please can a more experienced grower help me out ? I will try post some pics soon..
