Hey @Capt. C I don't have any tupperware but what I do have is 4 32oz mason jars. I think I'm gonna need more than 4 though ?. Anyways, today is day 4 hanging and the thinner colas on the right side of the tent feel real dry and rock hard, the thicker colas on the left side of tent still feel like they are just dry on the outside and moist on the inside.

Now the reason I mention the side of the tent is because I have a small fan on the floor on the left side of tent, pointing towards the right side and slightly angled up. So I imagine there is more air movement around the branches on the right side than the left, plus with the ones on the left being the thicker "Big Ole Dongs" I figure they are going to take a little longer lol.

I was thinking about grabbing some of the smaller buds that feel dryer today and jarring them so I have some medicine and can get ready for burping. But now I'm thinking I should probably jar up what I can of the dry right side of the tent, and go looking for air tight containers tomorrow to put the rest in. Or jar what will fit and then see if pointing the fan at the floor on low and see if I can get the RH right for the thicker colas.

Or maybe I'm thinking too much about it and should just get them in jars and start the burping process. Have I mentioned I am very indecisive?

Update: it's only a few that feel real dry, I pulled off a couple a smaller buds that snapped off, some didn't snap off so I left them, I just grabbed a few to get me through.
Might be little early for the jars . @Blackbeard if today is day 4 i feel confident you should be able to find some Tupperware tomorrow some were just about all dollar stores carry them. The size i use is like 9"x9". Whatever container you chose you should have hygrometers to set inside the container. I use the small rectangular ones on Amazon roughly 4-5 dollars each. The first week or so in the Tupperware you can just reach in and turn the whole load over once a day. You can use your lid like a fan to lower humidity build up right away. Examples of adjustments on the lid would be any where from snapped close to leaving a good size gap in closing the lid. Best to group your cola according to size as well. While drying the safest place to have the lid is just setting square on the top and not snapped in place that way some moisture can escape. You are almost home free when you start getting consistent readings in the mid to high 60's humidity. What ever the outcome from this point as long as you do not let them get mold your product that YOU grew will be better than almost any flower you could buy in a dispensary (y)

Shoot @Blackbeard i am just realizing that we had a harvest on the same day as i am on day 4 of my hang today as well. I am fairly confident that my hang will probably go to 7 days or even longer on this run but i have had almost constant humidity over 60% plus i hang my plants whole. While i can't say for certain i would bet your product is ready for containers at the end of tomorrow day 5 (Judging from the humidity readings you had posted). The ones you have to watch the closest will be the big colas.

Dry trimming is way less mess.

I also chop a little earlier when when hanging whole plants.

Hey All,

So I know there was a hiccup and my last update post got rolled back and deleted, but anyways, I got COVID right after my last post. So I wasn't able to smell my harvest for a while. I can smell now but I don't feel it's 100%. The Citrus MILF turned out top notch!

What I have going on now is 3 Greasy Pieces and 1 Black Water.

I seem to have a cloning deficiency as I've managed to keep one GP clone alive and ZERO BW's.

The funny thing is the GP clone that's alive is one that I was just doing an experiment with, I made a water bottle contraption that just held the clone with the tip in water under my kitchen fluorescent light which is on 24/7. It grew roots after a while so I stuck it in a solo cup. The clones I cut and actually tried to clone never grew roots. I tried with jiffy peat pucks, my water bottle contraption and a cup of water. The only difference is the actual clone attempts were put in my small tent that has a blurple led thats 18/6.

I think I might just grow seeds and forget clones, and to keep from breaking the bank buying seeds, I'll try my hand at making some seeds with the regulars I have. Though I won't actually be pheno hunting, just putting males with females now and then to keep myself stocked with future seeds.

Well here is what I have going on now.
