mold control in dry room

[littlemountain]

It has been one wet year here in the Smoky Mountains- lost half my crop a month ago due to bud rot- I had to harvest this week due to more rain all week-I have plants hanging in my dry room which is an outside smoke house- the ambient humidy is so high I found some mold growing on a cola that was damaged by caterpillars- i have a fan blowing indirectly in dry room to keep air circulating and put a small oil radiator on low heat this AM-will this heat actually aid in mold growth or what- It will be nearly impossible to keep humidity down in the room this week- I have read a lot on dry and cure- there are a lot of different opinions-What is the best way to get control of my mold problem while drying????help please mold grows fast

If its already humid and you add heat, you will drive the humidity up. I would move them indoors or if you can't, at least remove the heat. And try to exhaust the out of the room instead of just moving it around inside of it. Both would be ideal.

I removed the heater after one half an hour-realiized this was not the solution- I have put 2 small fans circulating the air-the building I am using allowed me to vent more air in and out_ - can;t move indoors -there are 20 plants and they alll have good size to them and stink of high hell-thanks for your reply tpo my delima
