Rh outside is sitting at 64%, So the inside od the tent shouldn't be much lower, would it?

I think it was @Waira who suggested I keep it about 40% inside the tent. When I chopped mine the room RH was 20%ish, and it dried WAY too fast. My rookie mistake was compounded by the fact that I had not had anything to smoke in 4 months. So I wanted it dry as fast as possible. Not sure if 60% might be too high, though, as it increases the risk of mold developing. Personally, I'd rather it was a little too dry than ruined...

:jointman: ayuh! -- the dry/cure process is as much a skill as anything else,....It takes a few days at least for the "death throes" chemistry changes start really breaking things down in there, and a certain level of moisture during this time is important,... the general recommendation is about 70F, 50%RH, (and gentle air movement!), which should take several days-week to dry enough to start jaring up for final moisture equalizing and full curing,... it's amazing how much difference +/- 10 degrees or %RH can make! I dry at the mercy of inside T/RH%... last season I got lucky with upper 60'sF and about 40%RH and that batch dried just cherry! ... I've had bad luck, early Fall weather with warmer humid conditions (mid-70's/65+RH% inside), and it added 3+ days rack time alone :doh:.... No matter what, huge amounts of terp's get lost during this time, so anything that accelerates this can make a big difference,.... upper 70's+ sucks the light molecular weight terp's right out and you get f'ing hay-- :nono:-- and overly strong air movement can do similar things, plus make the bud really uneven in moisture content--crispy outside, wet inside...... Mold is more of a worry during initial few days, then after a certain amount of moisture is gone it won't be able to attack it,.... I have seen botrytis crawl up a stem and fuck up more bud on fresh cut for 3 days though! :finger: (didn't set spores though thank fuck!) ....After that the moisture content becomes unfavorable for this mold at least,...

Get stone dragons...telling you man....i can pull one after another pics of short thick stalky dragons out of 1.5 gallon pots!! Some of the bigger portal strain might even suit a solo cup even better

I will pal ,, it's been on me mind to get some for a while and look for a male or two getting things slowly dialled in,, for doing runs in smaller pots ,,,will take time to get it right ,,,I work on the cheapest methods I can get away with ,,

@9bear you like watching a lot of races? I used to love to go to the dog track, find it more exciting than horses with humans on their backs. I'm not exactly sure why, just feels that way.

Good Evening Samwell, 9Bear, Stoners,
A night at the races sounds cool, but around here, the dogs don't pay off much compared to the horses which aren't great either. The real payoff when you win is at Jai Alai. A great night out even if you lose as long as you pace yourself.

You do mean the ball game and not the name of a horse race if there is a horse race called that ,,
