Drying a single bud?

Depends on the RH. I could dry a small nug in a day or two if I just leave it out, but it's really dry here. 15% right now in my house.
Here in the physical confines of reality the energy humidity holds on moisture migration out of bud is actually very small, heat on the other hand......

One day my ppfd....! :-(

That's odd because in my physical reality my weed will actually dry properly any time of the year irregardless of the outside atmospheric humidity, so long as I control the environment in which the weed is drying. Contrarily, when I am in high humidity atmospheric situations and don't control the drying environment with a dehumidifier, it can stay weird and spongy for a while.

I never control my house or drying humidity and it ranges high to low - temps i do control but because i like to live in the place in human comfort levels which is perfect for both growing and drying.

Irrelevant of humidity if its hot it dries faster and cooler slower, hunidity is a factor but on a similar temperature week but with different humidities any difference is small.

The poster above assumes that if i had say a magical dial to instantly set any humidity i could choose say a one day dry at 10% or a week long dry at i guess 70% and that simply isnt the case.

Theres loads of fine details but atm everyone is dead set on humidity, biveda and jarring early with hatred for the natural dry so were just not on the same page to have that kind of higher discussion :-)

Weed dries quicker at higher temps for the same reason it dries quicker with low humidity; air can simply hold more water at higher temps compared to low temps. In my real world physical observations over decades of different harvests, and drying under many different environmental situations, I can absolutely assure you that humidity plays a strong role in the expediency of a proper dry. Perhaps you've never lives in a place with typically high humidity levels, so don't have actual first hand experience, however it is in reality quite difficult to have a proper dry and cure if your ambient humidity is consistently above 70.

Drying in high humidity just means you need a bigger hanging space. Los humidity, dry in smaller space. Unless youre growing a whole house, its pretty simple.

You can tell how much pot someone grows by what type of problems they have. My question is why these people feel the need to reply to a question about a single popcorn bud with their commercial experience.


OP that bud will definitely dry by next week. God none of you are a help
