I think looking at the and of the drying period will show you. You can see how "long" you had wich temp or humidity for. At the end ists the same information in an other way.
Gotcha. I have attached csv export, maybe this will have distribution info you can see.

Yes, but its "only" one Messure Point per Day. You can Change it before export under "Frequency". Screenshot 2024-07-02 221211.png
I personal collect my (Grow) Data in 3 screenshots per Week . I will do the same for the Drying too but by Day. Sadly i have to wait a couple Weeks more im at Day 43/80?! of my Grow. By the way You can change the shown period in the AC App by zoom in and out.

DAY 6

Everything is on schedule. Bagged up the rest of last weeks dry and put into grove bags to cure in Koolatron. Have a few buds still reading in the 14 range on the moisture meter, and some that are within good window. By day 8 everything will be ready for grove bags. I think I will be experimenting with curing half in grove bags and half in the Koolatron itself on the racks, to see if there are differences with final product.

DAY 7

All buds are in the correct moisture window for the next step which will be curing. We will transition to curing state starting tomorrow, Day8. We will start by lowering the vpd to either point 6 or 7 which will raise the humidity a tad we want to get to between 62 and 64 and hold it. In vpd terms that is about .76kpa, a dew point of 53.

I took the liberty of sampling some of the product, by both joint and mighty vape. No hay taste, burns good, stays lit, white grayish ash. The high is uplifting at the same time can put you in an extremely relaxed state, body wise. Does not have much smell until you break open the bud or grind. Very good buzz.

DAY 8

Well we are at the end of the drying period. Everything is within the moisture meter good window. We will start our cure with some flower curing in the Koolatron, some curing in Mason Jars, and some curing in Grove bags. All will be in the same environmental conditions otherwise. I just want to see if there is a noticeable difference. I am shooting for 4 week cure. I have set the vpd to .7kpa will monitor and make adjustments if needed.
