First grow - WW X2 NL X1

I did a 72 hour dark period. I had a fan circulating air for that time. However I did get mold in all my Top buds and had 26.5 grams of waste. But I attribute that to having an RH spike in the last few weeks of flowering and I didn’t address it. I knew 60% RH was a bit high but I figured I would be able to get away with it so I rolled with it. So that was my fault. The dark period didn’t make anything else mold up. So no I don’t think a dark period will make a plant mold. Unless the RH is crazy high. But like others have said already if you have a good temp and RH you’re fine. 🤙

Treat it like you would in your tent and be in the right range for temp and humidity and your good. Will be a good idea to have a fan somewhere with it to move air around

Hi growmie We all have our own different ways of enjoying a smoke and also the growing process my own preference is to only water for 10 sometimes 14days during the last day or 2 I will switch her into darkness and when I'm at this stage I get my area prepared for wet cutting and then I like to let her dry without a dehumidifier but if u have cold nights this is going to affect the way/time ur yield takes to fully dry out or/and can bring mold cos she will always be starting to dry again the next day ..bk to ur question I do like the darkness 24 -48hrs but I have always done this from when I started and have never had any bad smoke or problems with mold to rush drying her but u don't want her drying for too long either , u need to always be keeping a close eye...when that stem snaps she's ready to be placed in ur jars and opened throughout the day and burped off and then she's all urs and ready for those lungs of urs to test the fruits of your labour 😉 good luck remember its all down to what suits u ur area and space u also have I'll have great pleasure in looking in and seeing how well a yield and smoke u have 🍃👊
