It was pretty much 1 layer but it was a pretty big paper bag. I only opened it about 1 time a day but I would give it a shake every now and then. It was in the bag from thurs afternoon until this morning. I also had my humidifier going in my cab while dry'n the rest of the buds on the screen. It also turned out good just not as sticky and not as pungent. My rh was around 60-65. Temp 65-70. In future imma measure the rh amd temp inside the paper bag. Didnt think of it till today...but hey..its my first auto grow soo its all about gaining knowledge at this point. ..I may do the entire dutch cheese plant in the bag and note all of that info for peeps.

I'm you will that the rh in the bag will start at least 20% than in the cab. I would move to the jars when the rh gets to 65-70%

new addition!

Just wanted to update a new peice of equipment for my grow room. My ak Linda had kicked up quite a stink around my apt soo was looking for ways to help eliminate some of the odour. A fan and filter would obv have been ideal but my finances and grow space ruled that option out for now. Soo I was online searching out options when I came across my latest gadget. Its a air purifier system that is both carbon and hepa filtered. I put in in my grow room in front of my grow closet and within an hr the room was odour free. The best part was that it only cost me $40(cad) it will also help with mold amd other bacteria in the air. Below are the stats if anyone is interested. I got mine locally through craigslist but they are on ebay cheap as well!

Cheers

Quick update for the dutches! (Dutch cheese) it appears that I am no longer winning the battle with the mites! we have been def fighting the good fight but I think it just went too long unchecked this time. I have been trying 2 drag it out soo as I can maybe get something worth mentioning out of her but its just not going my way! She has now gone over her 80 days and is def not where I wished her to be! The mites have killed off most of the fan leaves at this time soo she is looking quite sparce..not very much bud growth either since I noticed them again. Kinda just staying the same size yet the amber trichs are pop'n up. Gonna feed her this week and then start the flush and take what I can get I guess! she has def been through the ringer soo I guess I'm lucky to get anything outta her. Sorry for the early morning rant. ..just needed to vent a lil!
Cheers

Damn, JT! Hate to hear it, bro. It's okay, though. All of this adds to your experience and knowledge, and in the end, makes you a better grower

Thanks boys for the kind words...well at least it went the full 80 days and then some. Not a total fail I guess. And the bud quality looks great! They may not be as fat as Linda's but they are def more frosty and sticky and stanky! Lol hopefully she will reward me with quality vs quantity. Both plants really had no issues with nute deficiencies or ph soo at least I know I was on point with that! It was the damn mites and that cold snap that screwed me up. Also the fact that she started late outside also prob put her back a lil. The good old secret soil mix seemed to work fine for the auto's soo I will go with it again for round 2! If it ain't broke don't fix it I guess.
