To be fair, a couple of these would have been OK going longer, but the biggest issue I have is only having one tent.
In a perfect world, I'd have a separate drying tent, with its own dehumidifier and extraction fan.
I don't.

So, I need to harvest everything at the same time, as quickly as possible, and then turn the growing Campus into a drying room, as quickly and efficiently as possible.

But yes - I agree - in future grows, ease of trim might become a factor when deciding on which strains to grow.
Having said that, if I move to the perpetual grow I've been threatening to do, it won't be an issue, because 4 plants at a time doesn't phase me, even if they're absolute nightmares to trim ... not after 16 anyway!!

Ah, yes ... living the dream ... a perpetual grow with a fully equipped, separate drying tent.
Where's that winning lottery ticket when you need it?
hey dude I use a small 2x2 tent to dry my buds just run ducting from my big tent to the little one negative pressure does the trick and I only run my extraction fan just over 1/4 strength (power wise)

Yeah - a second tent is defo the way to go.
And with a perpetual grow, its a must have!
So I know what I have to do ... now I just need to do it.
 
Hmmm ... just checked the paper bags that have been on the drying rack for some time.
The tops of the bags, where they're folded over, actually feel damp.
I guess it's good news, in that the moisture is obviously coming from the buds ... now my paranoia kicks in and expects them all to turn to perfectly cultured bags of mold.
