By all means, leave that filtration fan on. It will supply the light air circulation needed to slowly dry out your buds. As well as reducing chance of molding and keeping the smell away.

I have 3 Gorilla Zkittlez at day 95. One is ready to chop, the other two are not quite there. I’m going on vacation for 7 days. Question: chop them early or let them remain unattended for a week? I usually water every 3-4 days, the plants haven’t gone 7 days without water. WYD?Week 15

Cardboard box drying outdoors?I dont have a place in my house to let them dry, plus I dont have a de/humidifier.
I’d dry them in a sheltered place, in a cardboard box but still outside, averages 60-70% humidity, i would cut holes both sides for ventilation but keep light out and put boveda packs 65% Thoughts?Other. Harvest - Drying

How do you dry your buds? Here’s my method – what’s yours?How do you dry your buds? Do you hang them, use nets, racks, tents, boxes? Do you go for cold drying, slow & steady, or faster drying? What RH and temp ranges do you aim for and how do you tell they’re ready for the jars? Snap test, hygrometer or feel?Other. Harvest - Drying
