Harvest and curing

[turksteelman]

I am just about ready to harvest. Hopefully in about a week. Trichs are mostly cloudy, very few amber but in a week this may change. The question I have is this: I live in an area that currently has about 27% humidity right now with temps in my grow room at around 85-87 during the day. I can't get it any cooler. I want to make sure I don't dry the buds too fast when I hang them. Any suggestions.

Get a humidifier.

Just hang the upside down in the dark with a fan in Low circulating the air.
Also take off big fan leaves and separate the buds from the plant and hang them separate.
Also you could get a dehumidifier but that will make your buds dry too quik and get harsh taste. I recommend you try to pue them inside a brown paper bag after 5 days or so and that way the bag will atsorb some moisture also. Here is a link to a drying technique post.

Good luck.
