I think next grow I will trim after they dry for a few days. The drying seemed to happen too fast in 2.5 days. Humidity was an issue at 30-40%RH. I tried to raise it by using containers of water and air stones, but could only get it to max out at 47%RH.
The main stem was snapping and they were dry on the outside so I cut them off of the main stem and put them in jars with some cheap Pet Co humidity gauges. If they are too humid after a few hours, I will move them to paper bags to dry some more.
Still haven't weighed anything, but looks like I may hit the 2oz goal or at least close to it.
Humidity went above 70%RH so they went back into the bags for another day.
I had quick dried a small bottom bud of each plant and brought it over to my brother's house. We sampled all and agreed "Two" was the keeper. We will repeat this in a couple of weeks after the cure.

Back into the jars. I went ahead and weighed it now, will see how much gets lost to moisture.
Stamah 16g + 17g = 33g
Dutch 14g + 16g = 30g
Two 19g + 16g = 35g
Total 98g.
The light is about 105 actual watts, if this is the final weight then I will be at .93333 grams per watt. We will see in a couple of weeks.
This far exceeded what I thought I was going to get (around 1 1/2 oz) and the quality is there. They are not hard dense buds, but they are potent and spell lovely.

Checked on the cure today. Dutch is only at 50% RH. Her airy foxtail buds dried way too fast and it looks like I missed the "cure zone". Stahma and "Two" are both at 60% RH a little low but should still cure.
