Understanding Humidity Levels in Cannabis Drying
Optimal humidity levels are crucial for drying cannabis effectively. The ideal range for drying cannabis is typically between 45% and 55% relative humidity (RH). This ensures that the cannabis dries slowly and evenly, preserving its potency and flavor.
Initial Drying Phase
During the initial drying phase, it's important to keep the humidity slightly higher, around 55% to 65%. This allows the cannabis to lose moisture gradually and reduces the risk of mold growth.

Mid-Drying Phase
As the cannabis enters the mid-drying phase, the humidity should be reduced to 45% to 55%. This encourages the plant to dry further and harden, which is essential for long-term storage.

Final Drying Phase
In the final drying phase, the humidity should be maintained at around 35% to 45%. This ensures that the cannabis is completely dry and ready for consumption.
