First harvest question

[cwesto]

I harvested today and hung up the branches along my wall in the grow area. Since it was already light proof i figured it would be a good place to dry them. So anyway the branches are tied along a string across the wall of my closet, lights off of coarse; i also have the exaust fan on and a swivel fan as well. Is that gonna do the trick?

Sounds great, you've got plenty-o-ventolation. Got any pics? Have you tried a pinch?

[cwesto]

no, i dont have a digi cam so no pics. The plant i think was a lil pre mature when harvested, but i have an appartment inspection in 2 days so it was time to harvest. and no i havent tried any yet

also i was wondering if u kno of a rough time range i am looking at for drying these budz???

Rule of thumb seems to be a week to ten days. Then around a week (or more) of curing.
Have you trimmed off all the leaves? It should help speed up the process.

Let us know how it goes.

tight tight. a week it is then. well my yeilds are basically non existant, and i dont really know why. it was however my first grow and i think many things contriubuted to my tiny yeilds`like root lock, Ph probs and temp probs. i let flower for 2 and a half months and was ready to end my first grow and start the next so i cut my plant
