When I bite off more than I can chew in one night of trimming plants, I put the remainder in a huge Tupperware bowl with the lid on tight. The next day the plants are still plump, look freshly cut, and are just as easy to trim. Pro tip...

I keep mine in a large tote as well during trim. After hanging 10 days they're usually around 68% when they hit the tote. Trim a bit a day and let the tote breath during a trim session. Cure and trim at the same time. Plus the leaves get a chance to rehydrate so they're not losing trichs from being too dry. Usually done around 62% when they hit the jars for the final cure, taking them down to 55% over a couple weeks before the jars stay closed.:leaf:

Nice. I used to hang and cure, but I haven't for years now. I find it easiest to just cut down the plants and trim them clean while fresh, then simply cut off the buds and dry them as quickly as possible (usually 5-7 days) so no chance of mold. No one has been able to tell the difference between buds produced the old way, and what I do now, so it's all good...

My trimming routine is off because of the raised bed. When I was in buckets I could move a whole plant out where I could sit down and trim it at my leisure. Now I either have to stand at the bed, which my back loves, or cut em down in batches. I just gotta remember not to cut as much when there's a high leaf /calyx ratio. When I do over cut I'll usually just throw the tray with buds in the fridge if I can't get to it. I've kept buds for 3 days before like that with no wilt. I also found out refrigerating fresh buds makes the color come out heavy in some strains, my Durban turned almost black and my LSD turned red/purple compared to the non refrigerator buds.

Could you take the High Speed Train?






























;):)
LOL since I'm not an inmate's significant other I don't think I'm allowed to use it? I had a dog with me so public transportation wasn't an option. I don't have a CCW which is another reason public transportation isn't an option. Further I don't think they've built any realistic means of public transportation because it would stop us from spending $4.00+/gallon on gas.

Smoking the new table. Think I may have found a good one.

Lol tell me about it. Im gonna run two large oscillating fans in there when the summer hits
I have good luck with a swamp cooler inside the house. I'm not about to run my A/C to cool it.

I bet you could decarb out there.
During the summer my indoor canopy temp is about 105. I shut the light down after that. As for drying plants sometimes 24 hours is to long to leave it air dry.

No fan? Im gonna run 2 10x10s side by side in the dirt where the compost piles are. I'm hoping I don't gotta buy no fans for those lol. Will be wrapping them with the sunscreen mesh and putting 6 mil roof on both
