Grump's Indigo Sapphire Grow 🌱

[Observer]

They actually recommend a 24 hour hang dry prior to loading it up. Might have to try that next time.

12-72 hours,

Then pack cannatrol

Should be fine.

Tent batch dried. 8 ounces there so 21.5 total. Waiting in the Cannatrol's load for a final weight. Then everything will get put into grove bags and stuffed in the troller for a controlled cure.

Best harvest so far and there's still a plant to weigh.
Best harvest if I disregard the mildy buds......
Heaviest harvest. Let's just say that.

Welcome to the big bud club man!
Anything bigger than beer bottles puts me in mold prevention mode during ripening and after harvest but as mentioned I wash buds too then let drip dry with a fan blowing hard on them right after cutting down. After an hour or so I don't see any fresh spots of water below I dry as usual. Not sure if that would help ya but washing is something that could help in prevention.

Something to consider for sure.

I usually break down the big ones. After this go at it, I realize that my aspirations are too big for the Cannatrol.

Future runs will be dried in the tent. I should have a minisplit installed for that. That aughta improve on my hang-dries. Then I'll cure in grove bags stuffed in the Cannatrol. It just can't handle my harvests.

If the plant that I'm drying in there right now turns out to be way better than the hang dry, maybe I'll consider a bigger unit when they hit the market.
Probably not though.. even if it's 3x the size of the little one.. it won't hold my harvests.

It's gonna be a wasted investment if it'll only do one plant at a time...

Depending on how large your plants are that may just be how it goes.
I like to think when I grow different strains that I can pull the earliest finisher and controllably dry it while still using the room to continue the finish grow.
I have grown almost 20 plants at one time and there is no way I get even 20% of that [ 4 plants ] in the cannatrol but I like the thought I can pull the first one or two when it is done.

I prefer drying in my room.
