Harvest. Should I remove more leaves ?

Hi all. First Autoflower grown and harvested. A lot was learned from this. It was hard with the temps I have been getting and no AC. But got to this stage.
Do you think I should leave whats left on this chop or trim more to allow more airflow around the buds to aid against mould growth or leave them for slower dry?
I am in upper 70s temps here. Humidity around 55. I do have some control over RH.

Cheers All.

With your temps in the 70s and your humiduty around 50 i would leave those leaves on. I always leave all of them on anyway and trim wen its dryer. But in your case with your conditions as they are (your temps are abit high realy around 60/60 is good)leave them on and keep an eye on them.
Im sure others will give you some good advice too.

Thanks: That’s what I was thinking. But was a little worried about mould with so many leaves. Hard getting temps to 60 with no AC. I do have a humidifier and dehumidifier so currently bumping up humidity to help.

I think youll be fine as you have no colas touching one another, thers good space and natural airflow around all the buds from your pics. With temps abit higher and your humidity lower im sure you will be ok.
Just keep an eye on it.
Oh be carfull with a humidifier, i would say you dont need it, you might risk issues with one of those. You temp is around 21°c (im in europe so i understand °c better than °f) im sure with a natural 21°c and 55rh you will be fine

I am using the Humidifier in the main room rather than inside the tent. I thought might be problematic and too direct. You think that is ok or should I switch it off. Large cool
Mist variety.

Thanks Again.

I dont think you need it. Should be fine inside the tent without. Do you have other plants in ther drying aswell or just the one or two ? With just one or two i think you will be fine just keeping it simple.
