That Blueberry is something else. Nice job Farmer. I dry right in my grow room which stays at 68 degrees and 50% RH. The RH dips some in the winter but it still takes about 7 days before the stems snap. I can tell spring is coming, my latest harvest stayed on the rack for 8 days.

I got em right in the grow room also. Seems to be working good, I’m looking forward to the smell and taste after cure. Some of the lowers off the BB that I clipped by accident I have on a paper plate drying as testers are showing purples and blues also berry sticky :rofl:
 
Yup...smells like grass or a bit like hay. As soon as you handle it , that will change. Break a few resin glands and the smell quickly comes back. Forgot to mention , in my journal the other night...when Mare got home from that 5 hr. harvest session on Sat....her son said she reeked as soon as she got in the door. She got out of the shower and her bedroom stunk from her clothes....:rofl:
 
:rofl:

That grass smell will go away soon enough.

Did you wet trim? That hay smell is very common when you wet trim. The plant is still alive when you are trimming all the leaves fresh and that causes the plant to respond. The result is grassy or hay smell when drying. If you want to avoid that just pull the fans and any of the closer leaves without resin, try to leave the scissors alone except to cut branches. That is one of the benefits of dry trimming. I know everyone has their preferred method but I've tested this and have recommended to another grower to give it a try when he said his harvests always smelled like hay. He tried it next harvest and was blown away by the difference. I don't spend much time at all on harvest day now and I don't trim hardly at all when dry. I let the jars do most of the trimming but I don't care about looks it all gets ground up eventually.

I did wet trim, I tried to leave most sugar leaves. I still have the amnesia lemon so I will try dry trimming to see the difference. I’ll take all the fans and bits without trichs
