I put a white grape in the jar if it's too dry and don't have a boveda pack. That way nothing wet is touching the bud and it just releases moisture really slowly though the grape's stem hole

Jeremy. What causes throat irritation during the dry and cure? Is it from jarring buds too early? That's my best guess. Even weed from dispensary is like this sometimes. I do it at home too and I think it's from jarring/curing too early. I think I'm gonna start hanging for 4 weeks instead of 2 weeks at 60/60.? You say as long as environment in drying area is like in a jar you shud be good on a 4 week dry correct? I'm sick of screwing up this process every grow. Stem snap do you mean when the bud stems snap or the main stems snap?
Thank you once again! I wanted to add that the first 3 days of drying are very crucial for setting the tone. In my research, you need some leaves on the plant for proper off-gasing. Keeping the light and dehumidifier air off the plants while drying will prevent premature drying. Some people disagree, but humidity packs are only for after the cure is finished. These are the things I've learned. Failure to perfection.... as always, research your research! Thank you!!
YES!!!!! Tortilla Hack is no doubt the absolute best way to “bring back” flower everyone always looks at me crazy then they never switch back. DONT SLEEP On this man full of all the classic knowledge. Never gets old with the reassurance from you makes me feel like I know what I’m doing. And almost always learn something new. Legend!
If you're bud is a tad too dry you put a piece of a fresh soft tortilla and it should rehumidify the bud slowly back to whereyouwantitwithout altering scent or flavor. @@billyballsup2685
I love it when Jeremy pulls himself back before he geeks out on the science you need a video where you jump down that rabbit hole I am happy to follow I love that shit keep killing it BAS team been on this ride with you for 4 years and its literally changed my life when it comes to gardening in general thank you for everything. you do
I discovered the best drying/curing technique by accident, when I forgot about my buds in the drying tent. Now I just do the same thing, hang my buds up untrimmed but cut from the main stalk, I hang dry them for 3 weeks in a tent no light at 72 deg F and around 55% RH. After 3 weeks they are perfectly dried and then I trim and I put them in a masons jars filled about 75% of the way, burp them everyday at least once and when I burp them I take all the buds out of the jar for a minute and then put them back in. Ends up being top shelf quality everytime.
He's right about south eastern Michigan 😉 I dry in my garage in late October early November the highs are around 55 to 65 and the humidity is about the same. I still use a humidifier to keep it at a steady 60ish
@@Mad_Medz😂😂😂😂omg literally spent endless nights on forums reading and none of it mattered 😭mfs really won't understand until they grow and have to check every min to see what's going on. i think i went through a manic episode with the stress and amount of forums online im done with those forums 😂😂😂😂😂
I swear! I switched to mostly hash cause of this, haha. My friend jacked up his first grow terribly, but awkwardly enough, fire small bud, lol. Literally tastes just like grape juice. Was low key jealous it worked for him on the forst try. Where my grows were great, till drying. Damn low rh winters.
@@CapJunkyyyStill a novice grower I got a question on the Grove bags do you dry and then going to the Grove bags or do you trim and then put it directly into the Grove bags??
Certainly the ripple effects of Jeremy’s efforts will not be realized until years down the line. This is turning dreams into reality shit, major arcana shit dog 🚀
I have a unique sure fire way of determining when flowers are dry enough for sealing away I came up with by accident. If you take some flower and press rosin, if it cleans up easily off the parchment it's ready, if it smears it still has too much water content.
I also had this problem with my AC Infinity controller on day two and woke up eight hours later to my tent at 79% humidity. I immediately opened my tent and exhausted the Moisture out. I hope I saved it in time.
Thank you for the feedback!!! I continued my drying process and luckily there was no mold. They are in jars now curing and there doesn’t seem to be too much damage to the terps
You sound rough in this video, man!! Hope you're feeling well/better! THANK YOU for your dedication to this craft and for always sharing EVERYTHING you know.
Every time you have a FAQ, I learn something that I didn't know or where I may need to look for my problem I'm having with my grow or harvest. Thank you Jeremy! Can't wait til next episode!!
You couldn't be more on point to bring up the idea that we focus on the grow, but need to keep in mind the dry and cure. We need someone, maybe me, to develop a home cure box that is equipped with everything to plug and play. Anyways, thanks for the content.
There is no plug and play, folks need to put the work in, instead of looking to throw money at a problem that doesn't need it. We are such a throw away society. ✌🏼💚
You have helped me greatly. These videos came right on time as I was just harvesting with all these questions. When you said dry 60/60 I was concerned but now my harvest is drying out absolutely amazing and I have you to thank for that. Your advice was perfect.
Couple of tips...when I'm ready to harvest I put a few nugs in a small jar for a couple of hours with a hydrometer and take a reading. If I over dry, then I use a bit of the plants trunk or make few sticks out of the branches and add them to the jar for couple of days.
Excited to see wht season 5 is gonna look like !! I'm hoping we can get some CBD plants and different ratio cultivars !!! Appreciate the whole team at BAS !!!!
Talk about great timing. I just started drying the last plant in my most recent grow yesterday. I've asked myself most, if not, all of these questions at one point or another. What a great video. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge! 🔥
If your environment is tropical I recommend removing the biggest colas and breaking them down into smaller buds. The rest can hang dry. I've had mold too many times during the dry process in huge, rock solid buds. Even with 60/60 temp/humidity.
Hi I'm in Thailand and about to pull down 3 plants of gorilla glue and have some really big buds especially the top ones Do you think its best to break these down into smaller buds Also do you recommend using a room with air con to keep temp down and a fan to circulate the air as much as possible Thanks anticipation
Today is day 14 of dry for my beloved Banana Krumble and they're now at 71% Rh. Ambient Rh is 50% today so I can eek them down to 65-64 in probably a couple days, then trim and jar.
NEXT SEASON: I think it would be awesome to see your favorite strain grown in the different quadrants. For example, 1 halitosis in each section. That would allow us to see if the different growing methods yield different results.
Hey Jeremy hope all is well with you and family! Can you get ahold of a "Cannatrol" to try to do a complete dry & cure ? This Cannatrol is getting lots of attention lately & I'm thinking about getting one soon! Thanks - Cheers
Missed this one originally but popped up on my feed today so glad I ended up watching it as it had tons of helpful information for new growers like myself
another excellent FAQ. great topic. been growing 3 years now and this is still the hardest part to be consistent on. some of that is due to being in phx, az but its certainly a balance! and i can confirm you will get better with time on it. lots of fun tech stuff to help us automate some of it but even still those need tweaking to make sure you stay consistent. sometimes low tech is a winner. cheers dude! love all the knowledge and info ! transformed my grow and got me growing veggies in my veg tent
Thank you for answering my question! When I wait until the stems snap it’s always to dry ( maybe I’m testing the wrong stems) but instead of using food I just tape a moist paper towel to the lid and leave it for a couple hours. Glad to know it doesn’t affect the final product
I feel stem snap tells you when your too dry, not sure why these folks tell everyone to test stems til they have a snap to them. Our stems are still bendable. One issue is every person's place is a total different in the way to hang and dry before cure.
Couple of tips...when I'm ready to harvest I put a few nugs in a small jar (6-7g) for a couple of hours with a hydrometer and take a reading. If I over dry, then I use a bit of the plants trunk or make few sticks out of the branches
Hey Jeremy. Love watching the vids and been a long time customer. I love that you want to and follow through with educating the new grower on organic growing with your 10x10 series. Do you think we could do a more advanced series where you don't go over all of the basics again? Maybe dive into the breeding that was talked about in I think season 3? Keep doing what you're doing.
Great FAQ. I’ve been wet trimming my plants and freezing the flowers. At which point they go into the freeze dryer . Final product comes out fantastic 👌🏻
Jeremy I'm so grateful to you for this channel. On my second year of growing in a 5x5 tent with a bar style 600 watt LED. PhotonTek X600W Pro to be exact. This latest grow was a tough one, had small issues along the way in seedling stage of all stages, but got it lined out in veg, only to have difficulty in determining when to chop and drop. Some trichomes were cloudy and a few amber, but still had many crystal clear! It was supposed to go 56~63 days.... I chopped them on day 81. Plants were in heavy fade and looking poor, but the buds were awesome looking, smelling and greasy to no end. I'm on day 4 of drying in the tent with a humidifier holding steady at 60% with 3 fans in the tent aimed away from the hangers. Whole plants tied up with yarn.... did I miss anything? Thanks so much!
it may dry to fast with three fans blowing around. i usually dry about 2lbs in a 2x4 with my ac infinity 6 inch fan on 1 and no fans blowing around usually around 64 degrees and about 62-64rh i run a humidifier in the lung room the tent is in to keep the rh up.
Better to have more amber than clear. Especially if taking a reading from the top of buds. Having more amber will just make it higher in cbd and still be a nice smoke and max out on the yield. Nothing worse than cutting early and getting less than 4 oz on a plant
I did hear about fresh frozen thank you for the full explanation, but yes I meant using freeze drying to skip the drying(I've seen people do something about it commercially but it wasn't very clear how so), I hear chlorophyll is broken down by bacteria/enzymes over the drying/curing process but I bet it would still work if the curing environment was used traditionally at first, ideally I'd split a larger plant into different segments to try the different styles on as close to an identical sample as possible
So many people want quality fast. Those two words are on the opposite end of the spectrum and you did a great job with right answers for the information given. Peace farmerlion
Just found your channel, so I'm grateful to the TH-cam algorithm. Man, you are so good. Fascinating responses and some deep wisdom shared in the FAQ. I'll listen to all of them over time. Thanks for being there. I'm finishing my first season (at age 64!) so I've been a bit intimidated by drying and curing. I feel better now. Thanks.
I came across something weird last harvest, a nug fell on the floor during bucking after hang drying, and it dried to a crisp. I busted it up and smoked it and it tasted better than my normally cured in jar after hang dry. Im at a loss for words, it's counter intuitive to what we are always taught to do, and it came out better flavour. Consistency, yes very dry but the flavour was on point.
Lol I made the same discovery as you before. I hanged dry my plant and I forgot about some in the drying tent, came back to it a month later it was perfectly dried. It was at room temperature with about 55-60 % RH and practically no air movement. Like you it ended up being better than the buds I actually didn't forget about and jarred. Ever since then I dry in a tent with no light inside, hanging my buds untrimmed and I leave it in there for about 3 weeks.
im so grateful to builda soil and master silvas videos my first grow since minnesota became legal is crushing it i put half light soil on one side and 3.0 on the other side of a city pickers sip garden cause it was available and i put one photo in vegh in it and its day 50 of flower today and its like ncover of high times magizine looking ill be a customer forever thank you
Hey Jeremy, I love the show, and I'm a huge fan. I've been watching the series since the beginning. Just been watching this episode and heard a question on tropical climates. I live in northern Australia, where we have two seasons, the wet and the dry. There was a question from a viewer who lives in the tropics and was worried about humidity and how to control it. The problems I've ran into over the years with high humidity and warm temperatures is, when we dry, we have to use aircons to bring temperature down, the problem I run into there is, the room drys out along with the tents the harvest is hanging in. Colder the air, the less moisture it holds. I can barely get humidity up over 50%, 55%, and the harvest will be done in 7 days or a little less sometimes. And the end result still comes out fine with terps and all. (I use bovida packs to rehydrate to a balanced product) What I've done to rectify this, is purchas/order a couple of ac infinity humidifiers and coupled with there exhaust and controller that i already have, I can finally, fully dial in my drying environment. After 8 or so years fighting this battle, this is the only solution i can see to have complete control over that environment, just like I do when I grow my mushrooms but smaller. Hope this helps your viewer. Using bovida packs to rehydrate the flower, I use 2× 450g packs in a 10L bucket 3/4 full with medicine. The packs will Crystalize, and the medicine hydrates to perfect condition for me, firm with a spring upon a light squeeze. The terps return with no hay smell. That said perfect would be better😁🌱.Love the effort you and the build a soil team put in to make this content. It truly is priceless. 👏 ✌️
After I started using B.A.S I grew myself out of room! My plants got well over twice as big as I was used to. I have clones coming out my ears....my room looks like an abandoned unkempt jungle. I had to give 2 big plants away. It was that or pull and kill them, I was out of room........I love the BuildaSoil way!!
Hey Jeremy. Question: in the Kid Kaya Farm tour video, Kurt mentioned that if he could have just one thing in the garden, it would be aerated water. As tent gardeners, what should we be doing for proper water aeration? Is spraying with a Chapin enough, and if so, does it have to be a 1949, or will the $15 plastic ones do the trick? Thanks for all you do. Your compendium of FAQ videos have essentially grown into an Intro to Living Soil Cultivation course, and I tell new growers to listen to all of them in order to get a solid handle on the subject matter.
In the tent like how I do it, I use a bucket and have a pump with a tall fountain like head. Use it for aerating any tea you make you. All in one water and tea and awesome sounding feature for cheap.
Hi, Jeremy and Co. I'm surprised the paper bag post-dry and post-trim question didn't come up. I have a feeling I know how you'll answer this, but I'll ask for those that still use the method. After you've dried and trimmed your buds, some people say putting your nugs in a brown paper bag like you get from a grocery store for 1 or 2 days or even 1 to 2 weeks pulls out any residual moisture that might be hanging around in your stems. What's your take on this? Thanks for all the free knowledge. I was in the PFA group (among other sites on various forums) before you started BuildASoil and I remember the day you announced it. I wished you good luck and it's amazing to see how far you've come. Congratulations.
💕✌🏼🌱 I'm in the southeast where it's hot and humid and I'm experimenting for the first time with leaving the stalks untrimmed for drying. So far the first plant i did turned out with better buds than a wet trimmed plant. If you're sure your dry room is what it needs to be at 60/60, it shouldn't matter what the weather is like outside because you're in a controlled environment...although as you frequently say, everybody can have subtle differences in environment. If my dry room gets more humid, I increase air flow
This may interest you...I was watching Cannabis the other night and the commercial grows there said they always get a stable 60/62f in their high tech facility, But the drying time did fluctuate depending on the outside humidity. Strange but true.
@@UbiquitousRomp 💕✌🏼 I do notice that my air conditioner will expel different levels of condensation/water when the humidity levels change outside, if it's raining for instance....
First: Great informative Videos. All of them, Thanks!!! You completly don't look like someone with that sort profound knowledge of Gardening. You have mad Skater Vibes. I like that.
I've learned that 60-62% is to high humidity for storage and final curing/ drying. I have two jars of multiple strains, one dried at 60% humidity 65-70F and stored at 60%. The other dried at 60% humidity 65-70F for 10 days and 55%-58% for the last day. The buds I store at 55- 58% smell way more than the ones at 60%. And they even feel stickeyer strangely. Taste stronger in the smoke too. My theory is that water absorbs smell kind of like carbon scrubbers do in smoke stacks. I think much of the problem also comes from the fact that most people store there herb at a higher temp then there dry room. Higher temps in your storage room and jars at the same 60% RH from your dry room means you are actually expositing your herb to more water in the air in storage than in your dry room. This is because higher temp air holds more humidity so even at the same 60% Rh in a hooter room there is more water in the air. This is why I lower my storage humidity to 58% to compensate for the water added to the air at a higher temperature. Even if you store your herb in a cooled room as soon as you take it out of the room you start to get issues.
Really good insights here. I'm gunna have to noodle on that some more... There are so many factors that play into reaching and maintaining that perfect moisture equilibrium between the flower and the air surrounding it.
it depends on the strain. i have been growing these two strains for several years so i’ve played with the storage humidity. one of them is better with the 62% boveda packs and the other one seems to moist when you smoke it at 62% so i store that one at 58% .
Spot on with your observations. RO "Relative" humidity...so with 60% and 62F being the sweet spot based on that balance. Some commercial growers dry at 55F and 55%. In hot climates people use all the sevens 70f and 70% I use my AC inf controller in my dry tent and 60% and 62F gives a vpd of .77 so does 70 and 70 and 55 and 55. Obviously if going for a higher balance, due to your high ambient temps, will require extra vigilance on your air flow. The main rule of thumb is to NOT let humanity get higher than the temp, but you can definitely balance rather than stick to a fixed humidly figure.
First off.. your content is top notch & I love what your doing with your experience & knowledge growing this glorious plant. One thing you mentioned that I would argue the opposite way is that smaller plants might not produce as dense of nuggs as bigger plants. I honestly feel in my experience that smaller plants are EASIER to grow dense nuggs on. My harvests have kinda proved this over the last three years with my smaller plants trained the same way producing denser than those of their bigger sisters. It makes sense to me as the nutrients don't have to travel the great distances of a bigger plant?
I think the freeze dry method you can use instead is use the (cannatrol) its just like a wine cooler for your bud specifically i am trying to get one myself they retail for about 1600 i would love to see you use that machine to dry and cure your product for the viewers that fail at curing like me thanks for all the information
After a year of growing, my plants have never dried/cured better👍👍 I only have a 4x4 tent with only 4 plants in 7gal fabric pots. Using this space for drying proved to be golden for me. I was able to keep temps at 63.5 and humidity levels at 60 or within a three or four degree differential. Thanks for all your advice Jeremy, my crops went from mediocre to primo!👌👌 Thanks again, 🇨🇦Rob
@@samanthaf6482 My tent is in a back bedroom in my basement with all heating registers closed. I run a portable humidifier on a timer to maintain 60%. I live in Toronto and we are currently in the winter season so the current temps have worked in my favour. In the summer months I just use a portable Ac unit with an additional duct run that I run from my home hvac equipment😎 Im a refrigeration mechanic by trade.
You are very helpful when you describe how the smell will dissipate on day three four five or six and then it'll come back is right on point with what's going on with some of mine 🙏✌️ just going back and re listening to your words is comforting to know I'm on the right track
I use the tortilla method ever since you said that a season or two ago. It works great! And people really get a laugh out of it. But I like it better than fruit peels. It doesn’t add any smells or flavors
Toss a weed leaf in there!that will freshen up dry bud like a charm! I won't use anything else now.. RIP a leaf of a plant and toss it in your dry bag. Presto 😅
Awesome Videos, Growing must run in our last name family generation, Im a Silva too, family came to Panama from Portugal. Im growing at Jamaica now. I agree with Neval09 for an episode, think it would be awesome to see your favorite strain grown in the different quadrants, to see difference growing methods yield different results. Thank you for all the info!

RUNTZ , is that singular? , 🙃hanging in there, could only have come from a build a soil method.
I've been drying in a humid environment for a while now and have a lot of people ask me how I do it so well... I tell them when the stems snap but don't break off to take some buds and put them in the bottom of a jar with a humidity reader for a couple hours. That will tell you the relative humidity of your buds. I wait until the buds are 60%RH before jarring. The RH will fall after a few months. So keep in mind if you are pressing rosin you want your buds at 62%RH. For smoking I like 58%RH. There's no right or wrong way to dry cure. This is just how I do it. I also only fill the jars halfway so that the chlorophyll gases can rise above the bud and I burp the jars once a day for the first week and once every other day the second week. Then I don't touch the jars for 1-2 months. Remember it's called a burp for a reason and every time you open the jar you're releasing terpenes. 😜 Stay Frosty!
Thank you Jeremy for all you and your wife do. Watching all 4 series and now going thru all the FAQs I feel I have attended a fantastic years long college level course in cannabotany. Thank you so much for these amazing videos. Please don't stop. I just got my NIWA from you for a grow I'm in veg wk 5. I'm loving it. Anyway, I've asked a couple times, but here goes again. After 16+ days at 60F & 60%RH with audible stem snaps, what do you think of using Grove bags instead of jars for storage. They have all sizes, and even drum sizes for commercial apps. I'm a user, and not affiliated, etc. I just wonder what your thoughts on Grove bags were. Thanks!
I’m going to try them for the first time this year when my out door is done.I’m goin for the terp lock wicket bags it’s their answer to the turkey bag and 27 gallon is only 1.89 or something like that so an affordable option.
I absolutely loved this thanks Jeremy! You have helped my garden more than you'll know thanks a TON! I am actually able to produce some very good tasting and great quality buds!
drying/curing has always been a stress/worry for me until this last harvest. I got a tent just for drying and loaded it up with carbon filter/humidifier/fan. I can dial it in with min micromanagement or a controller. ill probably buy a controller this year just to automate everything
Well thank you so much brother I just found your channel and I've been growing my own plants for a couple years I think this is my fourth or fifth grow and I really wish I would have ran into you when I first started I believe you are about the best in explanation, demeanor, and willingness to help others. God bless you brother thank you so very very much I'm going to let everybody know about you I'm going to share your Channel with everybody I know
i dry in a 4x4 and it gets dry around here, so what i do is i put a paper towel at the bottom and spray it with water. works like a charm. Also great videos! l learned so much.
Sounding a little raspy there J. Hope your feeling okay mate. Thanks for the vid. I remember answering the guy who dries next to his bathroom. I suggested he'd be better of just relocating, cos there's no justifying a whole grow just to "experiment" with a drying technique. I mean potentially turning out bad far outweighs the simplicity or convenience. Just use the bedroom, the conditions are about right for human and drying needs anyway
For rehydrating bud I use terracotta pucks made by RAW . I use reverse osmosis water so I know im not adding any flavor to my buds. You need to use a humidity meter with these tho as just a few mins in a container is enough to spike the humidity up to 90%. I use em in big totes and for short time in smaller jars. Generally I get my stuff stored right at 55-58% humidity tho.
Jeromy, THCanks for answering my questions, I will continue what is working for me. I just wanted a professional opinion. To my ReLeaf i am handling it the way you would.... Blessings from me and mine to you and yours. M
Hi Jeremy! You had mentioned on a previous video this season that Kevin from RootWise was using Pure protein dry as his only foliar spray. While growing the legendary 10 pound plants! Can you please talk a little bit about its application rates and benefits? Much appreciated! Mulch love, Sam
I really have been lacking on my drying, my focus has been on growing, and I've always wondered why the bud never turns out as good as when I harvest, well it's cuz my dry time was about 7-9 days which I thought was sufficient lol... never again, I'll shoot for 14-16 days from now on.
Great info and chill Faq sesh 👊✌ also totally agree and love the taste test when your checking to see the plant is ready! That fresh cannabis feeling and taste is unmatchable when right :) dont get me wrong though, aged hash and even cannabis when done right can be a fantastic treat ^_^ Cheeers🤟
Damn I thought I was the only person doing outdoor Colorado bud. Other then the risk of golf ball sized hail storms that break every branch and stunts the plants conditions are very nice. It’s so dry bud rot almost non existent, no October hurricane to force your hand to cut early, stalks are tree trunks due to constant wind.
I put a white grape in the jar if it's too dry and don't have a boveda pack. That way nothing wet is touching the bud and it just releases moisture really slowly though the grape's stem hole

Jeremy. What causes throat irritation during the dry and cure? Is it from jarring buds too early? That's my best guess. Even weed from dispensary is like this sometimes. I do it at home too and I think it's from jarring/curing too early. I think I'm gonna start hanging for 4 weeks instead of 2 weeks at 60/60.?

Stem snap do you mean when the bud stems snap or the main stems snap?
Thank you once again! I wanted to add that the first 3 days of drying are very crucial for setting the tone. In my research, you need some leaves on the plant for proper off-gasing. Keeping the light and dehumidifier air off the plants while drying will prevent premature drying. Some people disagree, but humidity packs are only for after the cure is finished.

If you're bud is a tad too dry you put a piece of a fresh soft tortilla and it should rehumidify the bud slowly back to whereyouwantitwithout altering scent or flavor. @@billyballsup2685
I love it when Jeremy pulls himself back before he geeks out on the science you need a video where you jump down that rabbit hole I am happy to follow I love that shit keep killing it BAS team been on this ride with you for 4 years and its literally changed my life when it comes to gardening in general thank you for everything. you do
I discovered the best drying/curing technique by accident, when I forgot about my buds in the drying tent. Now I just do the same thing, hang my buds up untrimmed but cut from the main stalk, I hang dry them for 3 weeks in a tent no light at 72 deg F and around 55% RH. After 3 weeks they are perfectly dried and then I trim and I put them in a masons jars filled about 75% of the way, burp them everyday at least once and when I burp them I take all the buds out of the jar for a minute and then put them back in. Ends up being top shelf quality everytime.
He's right about south eastern Michigan 😉 I dry in my garage in late October early November the highs are around 55 to 65 and the humidity is about the same. I still use a humidifier to keep it at a steady 60ish
I just started drying about 5 to 6 lbs.. my conditions are 60/60, so this information is phenomenal
All I gotta say is making my own soil the bas way has been freaking amazing. I came up with a recipe thats water only and its working wonderfully!!
Dry and curing feels like a final exam. Everything you learned has led up to it.
Literally. And if you fuck up there goes everything u studied and practiced for 😭
@@Mad_Medz😂😂😂😂omg literally spent endless nights on forums reading and none of it mattered 😭mfs really won't understand until they grow and have to check every min to see what's going on. i think i went through a manic episode with the stress and amount of forums online im done with those forums 😂😂😂😂😂
I swear! I switched to mostly hash cause of this, haha. My friend jacked up his first grow terribly, but awkwardly enough, fire small bud, lol. Literally tastes just like grape juice. Was low key jealous it worked for him on the forst try. Where my grows were great, till drying. Damn low rh winters.
As bad as I want to finish I also am terrified of chopping and having to dial in this environment.
@@CapJunkyyyStill a novice grower I got a question on the Grove bags do you dry and then going to the Grove bags or do you trim and then put it directly into the Grove bags??
You have single handedly elevated the conversation for all of us who follow! So grateful to BAS! I'm looking forward to many more years to come.
Same here. Currently on my first BAS grow and loving how they're growing.
Certainly the ripple effects of Jeremy’s efforts will not be realized until years down the line. This is turning dreams into reality shit, major arcana shit dog 🚀
i have to agree
I have a unique sure fire way of determining when flowers are dry enough for sealing away I came up with by accident.
If you take some flower and press rosin, if it cleans up easily off the parchment it's ready, if it smears it still has too much water content.
An outdoor grow series would be killerrrr
I find myself coming back to this video. This is my third time watching it. It definitely helps.
I also had this problem with my AC Infinity controller on day two and woke up eight hours later to my tent at 79% humidity. I immediately opened my tent and exhausted the Moisture out. I hope I saved it in time.
Hey thanks for the answer
Things are coming along nicely, 10 days in and looks like they'll be dry in the 14 day range
Thank you for the feedback!!! I continued my drying process and luckily there was no mold. They are in jars now curing and there doesn’t seem to be too much damage to the terps
You sound rough in this video, man!! Hope you're feeling well/better! THANK YOU for your dedication to this craft and for always sharing EVERYTHING you know.
Every time you have a FAQ, I learn something that I didn't know or where I may need to look for my problem I'm having with my grow or harvest. Thank you Jeremy! Can't wait til next episode!!
It's all about the puzzle pieces.... 😃
I cant thank u enough Jeremy,ever since i started following u and bas,ever area of the garden has improved. Thanks a ton
You couldn't be more on point to bring up the idea that we focus on the grow, but need to keep in mind the dry and cure. We need someone, maybe me, to develop a home cure box that is equipped with everything to plug and play. Anyways, thanks for the content.
There is no plug and play, folks need to put the work in, instead of looking to throw money at a problem that doesn't need it. We are such a throw away society. ✌🏼💚
You have helped me greatly. These videos came right on time as I was just harvesting with all these questions. When you said dry 60/60 I was concerned but now my harvest is drying out absolutely amazing and I have you to thank for that. Your advice was perfect.
This is truly what I bought the machine for preserving flowers
Thank you for the endless amounts of info you give. Priceless
Awww yeah, new build a soil video at exactly 4:20pm.
I was thinking the same thing lol
Uhhh huh.
Why you block?
@@Derty_the_grower You got hurt feelins', precious? 😆😂
Couple of tips...when I'm ready to harvest I put a few nugs in a small jar for a couple of hours with a hydrometer and take a reading.
If I over dry, then I use a bit of the plants trunk or make few sticks out of the branches and add them to the jar for couple of days.
Excited to see wht season 5 is gonna look like !! I'm hoping we can get some CBD plants and different ratio cultivars !!! Appreciate the whole team at BAS !!!!
Talk about great timing. I just started drying the last plant in my most recent grow yesterday. I've asked myself most, if not, all of these questions at one point or another. What a great video. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge! 🔥
If your environment is tropical I recommend removing the biggest colas and breaking them down into smaller buds. The rest can hang dry. I've had mold too many times during the dry process in huge, rock solid buds. Even with 60/60 temp/humidity.
Hi I'm in Thailand and about to pull down 3 plants of gorilla glue and have some really big buds especially the top ones Do you think its best to break these down into smaller buds Also do you recommend using a room with air con to keep temp down and a fan to circulate the air as much as possible Thanks anticipation
@Nigel Peryer aircon yes defo and no fan in thailand also
Just as informative as you videos. Your customer service is outstanding also. I have learned a number of pointers an tips from y'all.
Today is day 14 of dry for my beloved Banana Krumble and they're now at 71% Rh. Ambient Rh is 50% today so I can eek them down to 65-64 in probably a couple days, then trim and jar.
NEXT SEASON: I think it would be awesome to see your favorite strain grown in the different quadrants. For example, 1 halitosis in each section. That would allow us to see if the different growing methods yield different results.
I absolutely love these Q&As. So much good information, always. Thanks, Jeremy!
Hey Jeremy hope all is well with you and family! Can you get ahold of a "Cannatrol" to try to do a complete dry & cure ? This Cannatrol is getting lots of attention lately & I'm thinking about getting one soon! Thanks - Cheers
Great information. Respect from the UK 👊🏽💪🏾🇬🇧
Missed this one originally but popped up on my feed today so glad I ended up watching it as it had tons of helpful information for new growers like myself
another excellent FAQ. great topic. been growing 3 years now and this is still the hardest part to be consistent on. some of that is due to being in phx, az but its certainly a balance! and i can confirm you will get better with time on it. lots of fun tech stuff to help us automate some of it but even still those need tweaking to make sure you stay consistent. sometimes low tech is a winner. cheers dude! love all the knowledge and info ! transformed my grow and got me growing veggies in my veg tent
Thank you for answering my question! When I wait until the stems snap it’s always to dry ( maybe I’m testing the wrong stems) but instead of using food I just tape a moist paper towel to the lid and leave it for a couple hours. Glad to know it doesn’t affect the final product
I feel stem snap tells you when your too dry, not sure why these folks tell everyone to test stems til they have a snap to them. Our stems are still bendable. One issue is every person's place is a total different in the way to hang and dry before cure.
Couple of tips...when I'm ready to harvest I put a few nugs in a small jar (6-7g) for a couple of hours with a hydrometer and take a reading. If I over dry, then I use a bit of the plants trunk or make few sticks out of the branches
Always appreciate your videos man. Keep up the great work. You are a legend. Thanks for everything you do.
We appreciate for all your videos! We grew to harvest with lots of confidence! 16 day dry & we’re trimming 1/4lb each plant. Thank you! Thank you! 🙏🙏
Hey Jeremy. Love watching the vids and been a long time customer. I love that you want to and follow through with educating the new grower on organic growing with your 10x10 series. Do you think we could do a more advanced series where you don't go over all of the basics again? Maybe dive into the breeding that was talked about in I think season 3? Keep doing what you're doing.
Great FAQ. I’ve been wet trimming my plants and freezing the flowers. At which point they go into the freeze dryer . Final product comes out fantastic 👌🏻
Jeremy I'm so grateful to you for this channel. On my second year of growing in a 5x5 tent with a bar style 600 watt LED. PhotonTek X600W Pro to be exact. This latest grow was a tough one, had small issues along the way in seedling stage of all stages, but got it lined out in veg, only to have difficulty in determining when to chop and drop. Some trichomes were cloudy and a few amber, but still had many crystal clear! It was supposed to go 56~63 days.... I chopped them on day 81. Plants were in heavy fade and looking poor, but the buds were awesome looking, smelling and greasy to no end. I'm on day 4 of drying in the tent with a humidifier holding steady at 60% with 3 fans in the tent aimed away from the hangers. Whole plants tied up with yarn.... did I miss anything? Thanks so much!
it may dry to fast with three fans blowing around. i usually dry about 2lbs in a 2x4 with my ac infinity 6 inch fan on 1 and no fans blowing around usually around 64 degrees and about 62-64rh i run a humidifier in the lung room the tent is in to keep the rh up.
Better to have more amber than clear. Especially if taking a reading from the top of buds. Having more amber will just make it higher in cbd and still be a nice smoke and max out on the yield. Nothing worse than cutting early and getting less than 4 oz on a plant
that tortilla tip to rehidrate is gold. greetings from Mexico!
I did hear about fresh frozen thank you for the full explanation, but yes I meant using freeze drying to skip the drying(I've seen people do something about it commercially but it wasn't very clear how so), I hear chlorophyll is broken down by bacteria/enzymes over the drying/curing process but I bet it would still work if the curing environment was used traditionally at first, ideally I'd split a larger plant into different segments to try the different styles on as close to an identical sample as possible
Did you?
Perfect timing on this just cut down on monday. Steady 60 and 60
So many people want quality fast. Those two words are on the opposite end of the spectrum and you did a great job with right answers for the information given.
Peace farmerlion
Just found your channel, so I'm grateful to the TH-cam algorithm. Man, you are so good. Fascinating responses and some deep wisdom shared in the FAQ. I'll listen to all of them over time. Thanks for being there. I'm finishing my first season (at age 64!) so I've been a bit intimidated by drying and curing. I feel better now. Thanks.
I love that one of the most wholesome things I see on the internet is a channel about growing herb
Bunch of Great Questions! Another Awesome series !
Thanks for taking the time to go through this for us. Really made the process much clearer here. For tobacco also. I may actually get it now. :-)
I came across something weird last harvest, a nug fell on the floor during bucking after hang drying, and it dried to a crisp. I busted it up and smoked it and it tasted better than my normally cured in jar after hang dry. Im at a loss for words, it's counter intuitive to what we are always taught to do, and it came out better flavour. Consistency, yes very dry but the flavour was on point.
Lol I made the same discovery as you before. I hanged dry my plant and I forgot about some in the drying tent, came back to it a month later it was perfectly dried. It was at room temperature with about 55-60 % RH and practically no air movement. Like you it ended up being better than the buds I actually didn't forget about and jarred. Ever since then I dry in a tent with no light inside, hanging my buds untrimmed and I leave it in there for about 3 weeks.
@@TH-wp7yeJeremy says the same thing the tent is the best if you can keep it consistent
People ask the same question over and over and over again I remember you answering these questions a couple of years ago
im so grateful to builda soil and master silvas videos my first grow since minnesota became legal is crushing it i put half light soil on one side and 3.0 on the other side of a city pickers sip garden cause it was available and i put one photo in vegh in it and its day 50 of flower today and its like ncover of high times magizine looking ill be a customer forever thank you
Can't wait to see your outdoor your indoors are awesome.
Hey Jeremy, I love the show, and I'm a huge fan. I've been watching the series since the beginning. Just been watching this episode and heard a question on tropical climates. I live in northern Australia, where we have two seasons, the wet and the dry. There was a question from a viewer who lives in the tropics and was worried about humidity and how to control it. The problems I've ran into over the years with high humidity and warm temperatures is, when we dry, we have to use aircons to bring temperature down, the problem I run into there is, the room drys out along with the tents the harvest is hanging in. Colder the air, the less moisture it holds. I can barely get humidity up over 50%, 55%, and the harvest will be done in 7 days or a little less sometimes. And the end result still comes out fine with terps and all. (I use bovida packs to rehydrate to a balanced product) What I've done to rectify this, is purchas/order a couple of ac infinity humidifiers and coupled with there exhaust and controller that i already have, I can finally, fully dial in my drying environment. After 8 or so years fighting this battle, this is the only solution i can see to have complete control over that environment, just like I do when I grow my mushrooms but smaller. Hope this helps your viewer. Using bovida packs to rehydrate the flower, I use 2× 450g packs in a 10L bucket 3/4 full with medicine. The packs will Crystalize, and the medicine hydrates to perfect condition for me, firm with a spring upon a light squeeze. The terps return with no hay smell. That said perfect would be better😁🌱.Love the effort you and the build a soil team put in to make this content. It truly is priceless. 👏 ✌️
Thank you after 2 months of looking you answered my question! Just discovered your channel and I am hooked🎉
After I started using B.A.S I grew myself out of room! My plants got well over twice as big as I was used to. I have clones coming out my ears....my room looks like an abandoned unkempt jungle. I had to give 2 big plants away. It was that or pull and kill them, I was out of room........I love the BuildaSoil way!!
Hey Jeremy. Question: in the Kid Kaya Farm tour video, Kurt mentioned that if he could have just one thing in the garden, it would be aerated water. As tent gardeners, what should we be doing for proper water aeration? Is spraying with a Chapin enough, and if so, does it have to be a 1949, or will the $15 plastic ones do the trick?
Thanks for all you do. Your compendium of FAQ videos have essentially grown into an Intro to Living Soil Cultivation course, and I tell new growers to listen to all of them in order to get a solid handle on the subject matter.
In the tent like how I do it, I use a bucket and have a pump with a tall fountain like head. Use it for aerating any tea you make you. All in one water and tea and awesome sounding feature for cheap.
Hi, Jeremy and Co. I'm surprised the paper bag post-dry and post-trim question didn't come up. I have a feeling I know how you'll answer this, but I'll ask for those that still use the method. After you've dried and trimmed your buds, some people say putting your nugs in a brown paper bag like you get from a grocery store for 1 or 2 days or even 1 to 2 weeks pulls out any residual moisture that might be hanging around in your stems. What's your take on this?
Thanks for all the free knowledge. I was in the PFA group (among other sites on various forums) before you started BuildASoil and I remember the day you announced it. I wished you good luck and it's amazing to see how far you've come. Congratulations.
Epic stuff
Lads in Australia if you have a wine fridge chuck your jars in there 16 deg
💕✌🏼🌱 I'm in the southeast where it's hot and humid and I'm experimenting for the first time with leaving the stalks untrimmed for drying. So far the first plant i did turned out with better buds than a wet trimmed plant. If you're sure your dry room is what it needs to be at 60/60, it shouldn't matter what the weather is like outside because you're in a controlled environment...although as you frequently say, everybody can have subtle differences in environment. If my dry room gets more humid, I increase air flow
This may interest you...I was watching Cannabis the other night and the commercial grows there said they always get a stable 60/62f in their high tech facility, But the drying time did fluctuate depending on the outside humidity. Strange but true.
@@UbiquitousRomp 💕✌🏼 I do notice that my air conditioner will expel different levels of condensation/water when the humidity levels change outside, if it's raining for instance....
First: Great informative Videos. All of them, Thanks!!!
You completly don't look like someone with that sort profound knowledge of Gardening. You have mad Skater Vibes. I like that.
I've learned that 60-62% is to high humidity for storage and final curing/ drying. I have two jars of multiple strains, one dried at 60% humidity 65-70F and stored at 60%. The other dried at 60% humidity 65-70F for 10 days and 55%-58% for the last day. The buds I store at 55- 58% smell way more than the ones at 60%. And they even feel stickeyer strangely. Taste stronger in the smoke too. My theory is that water absorbs smell kind of like carbon scrubbers do in smoke stacks. I think much of the problem also comes from the fact that most people store there herb at a higher temp then there dry room. Higher temps in your storage room and jars at the same 60% RH from your dry room means you are actually expositing your herb to more water in the air in storage than in your dry room. This is because higher temp air holds more humidity so even at the same 60% Rh in a hooter room there is more water in the air. This is why I lower my storage humidity to 58% to compensate for the water added to the air at a higher temperature. Even if you store your herb in a cooled room as soon as you take it out of the room you start to get issues.
Really good insights here. I'm gunna have to noodle on that some more... There are so many factors that play into reaching and maintaining that perfect moisture equilibrium between the flower and the air surrounding it.
it depends on the strain. i have been growing these two strains for several years so i’ve played with the storage humidity. one of them is better with the 62% boveda packs and the other one seems to moist when you smoke it at 62% so i store that one at 58% .
Spot on with your observations. RO "Relative" humidity...so with 60% and 62F being the sweet spot based on that balance. Some commercial growers dry at 55F and 55%. In hot climates people use all the sevens 70f and 70%
I use my AC inf controller in my dry tent and 60% and 62F gives a vpd of .77 so does 70 and 70 and 55 and 55. Obviously if going for a higher balance, due to your high ambient temps, will require extra vigilance on your air flow.
The main rule of thumb is to NOT let humanity get higher than the temp, but you can definitely balance rather than stick to a fixed humidly figure.
First off.. your content is top notch & I love what your doing with your experience & knowledge growing this glorious plant. One thing you mentioned that I would argue the opposite way is that smaller plants might not produce as dense of nuggs as bigger plants. I honestly feel in my experience that smaller plants are EASIER to grow dense nuggs on. My harvests have kinda proved this over the last three years with my smaller plants trained the same way producing denser than those of their bigger sisters. It makes sense to me as the nutrients don't have to travel the great distances of a bigger plant?
I think the freeze dry method you can use instead is use the (cannatrol) its just like a wine cooler for your bud specifically i am trying to get one myself they retail for about 1600 i would love to see you use that machine to dry and cure your product for the viewers that fail at curing like me thanks for all the information
The most detailed channel on utube if u cnt grow plants after watching this guy ask him for help 😆 🤣
After a year of growing, my plants have never dried/cured better👍👍 I only have a 4x4 tent with only 4 plants in 7gal fabric pots. Using this space for drying proved to be golden for me. I was able to keep temps at 63.5 and humidity levels at 60 or within a three or four degree differential. Thanks for all your advice Jeremy, my crops went from mediocre to primo!👌👌 Thanks again, 🇨🇦Rob
What do you use in your 4x4 to keep temps in the 60s. Just got me a 4x4 and just started my grow journey 🙃.
@@samanthaf6482 My tent is in a back bedroom in my basement with all heating registers closed. I run a portable humidifier on a timer to maintain 60%. I live in Toronto and we are currently in the winter season so the current temps have worked in my favour. In the summer months I just use a portable Ac unit with an additional duct run that I run from my home hvac equipment😎 Im a refrigeration mechanic by trade.
@@robertthornton2846 thanks for the info. I live where it's gonna start getting real hot 🥵 pretty soon and pretty humid on top of that.
Cheers, good work Jeremy man.. all I wanna add 👋
Bro thank you for putting my question as the first question wow!
You are very helpful when you describe how the smell will dissipate on day three four five or six and then it'll come back is right on point with what's going on with some of mine 🙏✌️ just going back and re listening to your words is comforting to know I'm on the right track
This was absolutely amazing. Thank you, seriously. Incredibly informative.
I think you should keep doing these question videos. Its very informative hearing your answers. Hearing it from you is better than reddit lol
I use the tortilla method ever since you said that a season or two ago. It works great! And people really get a laugh out of it. But I like it better than fruit peels. It doesn’t add any smells or flavors
Toss a weed leaf in there!that will freshen up dry bud like a charm! I won't use anything else now.. RIP a leaf of a plant and toss it in your dry bag. Presto 😅
I use the wood moisture meter works great for me, yes the larger buds obv have more moisture but just keep that in mind i kinda just take the avg
Awesome Videos, Growing must run in our last name family generation, Im a Silva too, family came to Panama from Portugal. Im growing at Jamaica now. I agree with Neval09 for an episode, think it would be awesome to see your favorite strain grown in the different quadrants, to see difference growing methods yield different results. Thank you for all the info!
Yessir another BAS video! 🤙🤙
THANK YOU for another happy harvest, your tutorial “RAMBLING” as you call it , skills are amazing, a person growing a single plant could follow you with truly INSAIN results with a few no brainers like your CRAFT BLEND 3 pounder for top dress, TEAS, soil additive to growth stage planter and ANY needs of the grower are EXPLAINED in detail and theory for all to learn! RUNTZ , is that singular? , 🙃hanging in there, could only have come from a build a soil method.
Bodeva packs for rehydration are the goat. as someone who's used everything from a piece of hot dog bun to fresh herb lol
I've been drying in a humid environment for a while now and have a lot of people ask me how I do it so well...
I tell them when the stems snap but don't break off to take some buds and put them in the bottom of a jar with a humidity reader for a couple hours. That will tell you the relative humidity of your buds. I wait until the buds are 60%RH before jarring.
The RH will fall after a few months. So keep in mind if you are pressing rosin you want your buds at 62%RH. For smoking I like 58%RH. There's no right or wrong way to dry cure. This is just how I do it.
I also only fill the jars halfway so that the chlorophyll gases can rise above the bud and I burp the jars once a day for the first week and once every other day the second week. Then I don't touch the jars for 1-2 months. Remember it's called a burp for a reason and every time you open the jar you're releasing terpenes. 😜
Stay Frosty!
Thank you Jeremy for all you and your wife do. Watching all 4 series and now going thru all the FAQs I feel I have attended a fantastic years long college level course in cannabotany. Thank you so much for these amazing videos. Please don't stop. I just got my NIWA from you for a grow I'm in veg wk 5. I'm loving it. Anyway, I've asked a couple times, but here goes again. After 16+ days at 60F & 60%RH with audible stem snaps, what do you think of using Grove bags instead of jars for storage. They have all sizes, and even drum sizes for commercial apps. I'm a user, and not affiliated, etc. I just wonder what your thoughts on Grove bags were. Thanks!
Much better than jars, as the don't clunk when running across a field with a holdall in the dark.
I’m going to try them for the first time this year when my out door is done.I’m goin for the terp lock wicket bags it’s their answer to the turkey bag and 27 gallon is only 1.89 or something like that so an affordable option.
You guys are awesome! Thanks for all you do!
I absolutely loved this thanks Jeremy! You have helped my garden more than you'll know thanks a TON! I am actually able to produce some very good tasting and great quality buds!
Trimming one tonight hanging one Friday... perfect timing
drying/curing has always been a stress/worry for me until this last harvest. I got a tent just for drying and loaded it up with carbon filter/humidifier/fan. I can dial it in with min micromanagement or a controller. ill probably buy a controller this year just to automate everything
Love you man you help me a lot so much making vids and txting me appreciate you 1 love
Well thank you so much brother I just found your channel and I've been growing my own plants for a couple years I think this is my fourth or fifth grow and I really wish I would have ran into you when I first started I believe you are about the best in explanation, demeanor, and willingness to help others. God bless you brother thank you so very very much I'm going to let everybody know about you I'm going to share your Channel with everybody I know
i dry in a 4x4 and it gets dry around here, so what i do is i put a paper towel at the bottom and spray it with water. works like a charm. Also great videos! l learned so much.
THE BEST channel on TH-cam!!!!
Hey thanks, appreciate you!
I've tried the tortilla too since you mentioned it a while back. Works great. Fresh picked leaves is a good idea.
U nailed it
Sounding a little raspy there J. Hope your feeling okay mate. Thanks for the vid.
I remember answering the guy who dries next to his bathroom. I suggested he'd be better of just relocating, cos there's no justifying a whole grow just to "experiment" with a drying technique. I mean potentially turning out bad far outweighs the simplicity or convenience.
Just use the bedroom, the conditions are about right for human and drying needs anyway
Really great content and love to see you grow, so here you go algorithm, here is my comment.
Hech yeah loads of info keep up
The great work love the content …
For rehydrating bud I use terracotta pucks made by RAW . I use reverse osmosis water so I know im not adding any flavor to my buds. You need to use a humidity meter with these tho as just a few mins in a container is enough to spike the humidity up to 90%. I use em in big totes and for short time in smaller jars. Generally I get my stuff stored right at 55-58% humidity tho.
Jeromy, THCanks for answering my questions, I will continue what is working for me. I just wanted a professional opinion. To my ReLeaf i am handling it the way you would.... Blessings from me and mine to you and yours. M
Hi Jeremy! You had mentioned on a previous video this season that Kevin from RootWise was using Pure protein dry as his only foliar spray. While growing the legendary 10 pound plants! Can you please talk a little bit about its application rates and benefits? Much appreciated!
Mulch love, Sam
I really have been lacking on my drying, my focus has been on growing, and I've always wondered why the bud never turns out as good as when I harvest, well it's cuz my dry time was about 7-9 days which I thought was sufficient lol... never again, I'll shoot for 14-16 days from now on.
Great info and chill Faq sesh 👊✌ also totally agree and love the taste test when your checking to see the plant is ready! That fresh cannabis feeling and taste is unmatchable when right :) dont get me wrong though, aged hash and even cannabis when done right can be a fantastic treat ^_^ Cheeers🤟
Damn I thought I was the only person doing outdoor Colorado bud. Other then the risk of golf ball sized hail storms that break every branch and stunts the plants conditions are very nice. It’s so dry bud rot almost non existent, no October hurricane to force your hand to cut early, stalks are tree trunks due to constant wind.
