hello all forum folks :hubba: i will hang up my plants to dry for 5- 10 days as every grower does .i am try to find a suitable place to dry them .i have a grow tent and can i hang the plants in my homebox ? should i keep the fans turn on or off ? i have 2 fans. active intake fan is 350m3/h and exhaust fan is 660m3/h . how much air flow is need for drying ? i mean if i should keep my speeed contoller @ minimum level while drying ? and during hanging phase, is 28C temp a trouble ? of course i will turn off the HPS while drying the crop. and about temp,i cant do anything about temp in the room where homebox in it . temp and humidity are very high here. i can drop RH to 55% with a dehuey but this time temp peaks above 30C . i can dry the crop in a different room with an AC unit to keep temp low, but this time i will have to dry them in a closed closet or a cardboard box without ventilation fans.i dont know if it is ok. can i dry them in a closed closet or a cardboard box without any air flow or just with oscillating fans ? | ||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Good to see ya Charles. It seems your humidity is ok, 45-55% looks to be the range to be in. Those temps are a prob to hot ...18-24C looks to be a good range. The below link has a good info on drying (starting on page 98). Cant comment on the circulation...as I am not a pro and if I have read about it...I dont recall what kind of circulation volume is good. Good luck \ooo/
