Purple lemonade harvest

Awg52 · Jun 8, 2021

Cut down my purple lemonade, trines any fans leaves etc, expected the low yield with the issues I had but wet weight is 95g. I’ve hung them up in a cupboard in the room (not ideal but only space I have as I have another plant in the tent). The temp is around 21 celcius with a max humidity of 55%. I have no fan to keep air circulation, has anyone any tips or tricks or advice for drying safely.

If you have no control, then it is what it is. The temperature and RH sounds ok anyway, if the low is not too low.
I got a herb drying rack from local hydro. Dried well on that. Wanted to try St Tom's recommend method of brown paper bags, but left it too late to order them off Ebay or amazon. Asda says they have them but I went in to 2 and neither had any along with other shops, thought it would be easy to get them!!??
That's your first one, is it not? Good job getting to harvest!!
Cheers,

Yeah first one, ive got 1 more plant in the tent. Had to flush her right out the other day due to nute lockout, she’s not looking great tbh. I’ve got the harvested bud hanging just now but Amazon should be dropping some brown bags today so I’ll try that out to. Might split half and keep hanging and half in bags and see what works.

Check the drying in brown paper bags thread. It's how i always do it. It works great for me.
Congrats on your grow.

Yeah, bro have a look and see what suits you. Well done again for getting to harvest.

Mmm, she does look a little under the weather. Hopefully your flush and reset will help and she picks back up. What caused the lock out, if you know?

Not sure what caused it, that was flushed 2 night ago so hopefully she picks up though I’m not sure how long it should take really. If that fails it’s back to the drawing board. The ph water in is 6.5 and soil is round about the same ph with run off around about the same

Update… still yellow, still leaves dying off and red stems on the main buds the smaller leaves have this red/purpley colour beteeen the leaf veins, can’t find anythin online that suggest what it is .

On day 6 now of the paper bag method, decent so far though the buds feel dry and slightly crispy but when I’ve tried to snap the stem it’s still bends. Any advice ?

hi bro you just have to judge them the best way you can as mine get dryer i end up at the end with everything in either 1 or 2 bags as if you have some bits that aren't as dry as others it helps to get them all the same dryness before curing also have you got any RH meters you can even put that in the bag if your worried to give you an idea there right for the jars
