Early harvest and high temps

So my balcony grow is nearing the end. Two autos, northern lights and auto somango. I'd say at this point they need another two weeks. My wife has booked holiday for us leaving in a week's time. I've decided to give them the chop early, pack them in a black bag and take them with me to dry and cure. It's the only option I have and we are only traveling max two hours. The Temps have been perfect for drying but of course they are suddenly getting hot exactly the day after I plan to harvest. I'm talking probably 80 to 85 degrees. No idea how the holiday house looks but I'm guessing basic and I'll be hanging them in a cupboard. What would you do this instance? They going to be drying out pretty quickly which I'd like to avoid. Thanks for any help.

I just ordered somango xxl autos from nirvana. I’ve been trying to find someone else who’s grown them from nirvana to let me know how they grow and what to expect. Did you get yours from nirvana?

Hi mate no I got mine from Lindaseeds. Hasn't been the easiest grow because of a lack of summer here and various challenges I've had. Pleased enough with the results though, just a pity about having to chop them early. You gotta do what you gotta do.

Those plants still have a month at least until ripe. You’re going to have headache weed no matter what you do in your drying process.

Can your neighbor water them while on vacation
It's not a bad thought, considered it but will have to speak with him. Problem is the best sun is from 8 till 16 on my back balcony and then I switch up to my front balcony from 16:00 to 20:00. The neighbor in question isn't quite in the same building as me but still fairly close. He's a bit fucked though health wise, all sorts of slipped discs and shit. He might die if he had to come to my place twice a day. It's worth a shot though. Or maybe I could haul them over there and have him water them at his place. Dunno I'll see what I can do. I guess it's just crap seeing all my hard work get taken over by someone else. The dude better not screw them up.

Whoa some of those seeds are real expensive but some are reallll cheap. You have all good experiences with them? I’m definitely gonna order a variety from there for those numbers. I can always clone what I like. Thanks for the link!
