Harvest & Curing my first harvest

[Cobain420]

HI guys i just harvested my 4 auto weeding cake last night.
Had a few cola with bud rot sadly(took the chance for them to grow one more week outside but the rain was not expected)
Lost 2 of my main cola cause of thise but for the rest it seem ok.

Now i got them in my grow tent drying
Best temp/Humidity iim able to get is 21 celcius and 45% humidity.

Is that ok or should i really try to get the humidity up by a few %
Also the grow tent is ventilated with fresh air going in and exhausted outside with my 4 inch ac infinity .

All help hint or tip appreciated

thx

45rh is too low in my books I would try to raise the rh if possible

ok but how much up ?

45% RH isn't necessarily too low, it'll just speed up the drying a bit. 50-60% is usually recommended. But, I'd probably aim to be on the lower temp / faster drying side of things in your case.

Since you had some bud rot, there still could be some spores / etc on the buds you kept (even if you did a peroxide wash). The lower the temperature, and the quicker you can reduce the moisture content, the less likely it should be to cause problems during drying and later curing.

Hes right 45 us way too low. I remember reading but I could be wrong that bud will continue to cure if kept over 50% I'm happy 60 to 63 personally.
