Drying indoors issues.

So in the summer I run 2 dehumidifiers in my basement. Obviously this creates problems trying to slowly dry. What is the best way around this? I can probably stretch it to 6-7 days just hanging but that's a bit quick. Any suggestions? I've heard paper bags but I don't want to screw anything up. Thanks
 
What is the RH in the basement where you dry? 50% - 60% is perfect for drying so I would just change the setting on your dehumidifiers to keep it in that range. There's really no need for a basement to be dryer than that, anyways.

Okay thanks that's a great simple answer. I've gotten WPM so I'm just paranoid about humidity.
 
Take a fan with a wet towel over it in the closet or wherever your drying it and it should put some nice humidity in the air
 
If its drying 6-7 days thats what you want but leave it hang an extra week as bud is a bit green tasting when first dry.

Your humidity just means it will be a slight bit drier when finished, means nothing its all good.
