    How long should I dry?

    My first harvest, I have a dehumidifier set up and a fan. Should I dry for 2 weeks? Click image for larger version

    Pretty much wait until the smaller branches/stems are dry enough to snap and break. This should take around 10 days +/- a few days depending on your conditions. Wouldn’t really suggest using the fan as it can dry them out too quickly. Humidity should
    be around 50%. Then into the jars for curing.

      I would also consider hanging them up in a row instead of stacked like you have them. Like clothes on a laundry line. Buds that are touching won’t dry as well at the point of contact and you could be at risk for mold.

        Yeah I thought as much if that's why i put the denser buds further away and the smaller ones close but not too close, and the fan is only for circulating air its far from the buds themselves

      Absolutely correct on the fan. Also don't have them touching each other. You can get a good dry in as little as 4-5 days depending on temp and humidity. Longer the better.
