I was worried too. Hope they cure ok.
This drying box with a portable air conditioner inside requires constant tweaking to keep temps / RH in range. Not easy for a lazy person like me.
That's quite the partial harvest Grateful! You still have a full plant left on that plant.

Lots of nuggets left on her. I previously removed several oz due to caterpillar damage.
Seeing as it's cooler and more humid I've turned off the AC in the box and left it cracked open with a small fan circulating air. Temp should be around 60 tonight. Humidity should be over 60% all night. I'll turn the AC on again tomorrow morning to keep things cool. Hoping this round goes better and the dry lasts at least 10 days.
I just burped the jars and they smell pretty good considering.

Pulled another 2-3oz off the Gorilla.
There's probably another 3 oz left on the plant.

The longer it takes the more it weighs.
Not bad for half a plant.Gorilla OG was in the harvest window, and I had time today so . . . choppity chop. Well, about half the plant.
Here is what I hung to dry after wash:
Here is what she looked like AFTER I trimmed about 4 oz of colas off her.
Still lots of decent colas / nuggets on there that will get chopped in a few days.
I washed then hung to drip dry, then put about 100 grams into a paper bag in the fridge. The rest is hanging in my Drying Box™. Gonna give it another shot. Gotta pay closer attention to humidity. Also going to chop plants at least every 4 days so that should help keep humidity UP. The weather looks much better for the next ten days - under 90˚F.
The Watermelon Kush and the White Widow jars have now stabilized around 58-62% RH. I'll take that considering they were crispy as Cheerios yesterday. I added a nickel-sized fresh bud to any jars that were low. I have 8 jars plus another 2 oz in the fridge, plus my friend has about an oz or so drying in her fridge. Another oz or so of larfy stuff for edibles.
Rock on.

Thanks Keith!
Hey the refrigerator dry would be great for your situation. I've got 4 bags in my patio fridge right now. Drying much slower than my drying box.

I can feel the suspense too. Growing's such a rollercoaster ride, isn't it? Your grows in The Bee Hive always inspire me. Fingers crossed for GratefulBud.
Totally with you, Carcass. Seeing RH stabilize gives such relief. And hey, love the journey you're sharing in your $150.00 Lo Budget grow. Keep it green!Cool! You had me worried at mid 50's..

GratefulBud, props to you for the commitment! I've been toying with the idea of a DIY drying solution too. Seeing your journey's giving me some real inspiration.

Growing is a challenge but the reward is worth it.
Are you currently growing?

Took another 3oz or so off the Gorilla OG today. From the mid to lower level of the plant.
There are still quite a few buds smaller than a quarter. Tomorrow I'll pinch trim and clean up as much as I can, then rinse off the plant with the hose and remove what's left to use for edibles.
Rock on.

Gorilla total = 10 oz of decent buds plus another 2 oz of larfy bud for edibles. Not bad for a plant that looked dead a month ago. Gorilla stopped drinking from the res 8/24 and has been top watered ever since.
The other SIP - SFV OG - has a TON of bushy colas. I think the cold then the heat confused her. Should be ready in a few days. Mimosa and Critical Kush also look like they are getting close. I'll get some pics tomorrow.

Yeah you told us it was dead so your credibility is shot! Turns out it's the harvest that never ends.

So far, it's the biggest plant I've ever harvested.
*eyeballing SFV OG*
So far.
It will be interesting to see what the roots look like on the Gorilla. New roots are supposed to stop growing after stretch, so maybe they got compromised and were never able to recover?

Hi Azi!
Yes I’m curious as well. I’ll post pics when I dismantle the sip.
