hey red-bull,

You can go to the book in my signature. Page 101 covers only drying temps. Keep in mind that is for when drying and growing temps are different.

I suggest you read in the faq and journals for more info, tricks and what have you, but I prefer books as my 1st resource on grow'n.

Good luck

Definitely not optimal and will dry too fast. Keep minimum fresh air circulation ie. no fans directly on the buds. If they feel like they are drying too fast on the outside, you can throw them into paper bags to slow down the dry. Just don't lay buds on top of each other and turn them a couple times a day. Open the bag after the first few hours to see how fast they will soften up. I like them to feel like dry sponges but if the outside starts to feel too damp I'll take them out of the bag for about an hour or just leave the bag open. I try to have the stems break at the same time as the bud gets a little crispy on the outside. (8-10 days)
If you dry them crispy on the outside within 2 or 3 days then you will certainly lose taste but curing will still give you great smoke.

imo that humidity is too low. i like it in the 50-60 range.

as for temps, 50-70 will do. make sure humidity doesnt go much above 60, and have a small fan cirulating the air around the buds.not directly on them.

Yah RedBull your temp is a little on the high side, and your RH is a little on the low side...Illegal seeds prescription is very similar to the conditions i prefer....slower dry, 7 to 10 days, does it for me...

You did not state if you are hanging the buds/stems, or drying on racks...methods of hanging etc....can also influence a successful outcome
