Harvest

Are you looking for accessories for drying and caring for your harvest? In this section of Grow Shop Italia you will find all the essential tools for a grower to get the most out of your indoor crops.

After weeks of loving care, it's time for every grower to finally reap the hard-earned fruits of their labor.

The collection of legal hemp and other cultivated plants is definitely the most satisfying, but also the most delicate part, as are the subsequent ones of trimming and drying.

The last days before the harvest, the place to dry the buds should be prepared. After cutting the plants it's time for trimming: some prefer to do it dry or wet. In any case, it is necessary to move on to the drying and curing stage.

To do all these steps, however, you will need adequate accessories for the care and drying of cannabis and other plants , which you can find for sale on Grow Shop Italia.

HARVEST DRYING AND CARE - DO I NEED ONLY TRIMMING SCISSORS? 

The last phase of the life cycle of plants is dedicated to the phases of collection, drying and possibly extraction of essential oils.

Whether it's the collection of legal marijuana or other cultivated plant species, you need to equip yourself with the best professional tools and accessories if you want to get the best results and leave nothing to chance.

Among the accessories for curing and drying cannabis and other plants, which a true grower cannot do without, there are:

• Trimming scissors;
• Drying nets;
• Grow tent for drying;
• Professional trimmer (to be always kept clean with special detergents);
• BHO extractors and Ice Washers complete with their equipment;
• Herb grinder;
• airtight containers;
• Humidity control sachets.

To maintain the quality of your crop, you need to dedicate yourself to drying. This process serves to eliminate water and chlorophyll residues, making it possible for plant species to be consumed for therapeutic purposes by vaporization, for example.

Drying is a fairly simple process but needs to be done correctly. Here's what you'll need to make a great drying plant for hemp and herbs .

HUMIDITY AND DRYING TEMPERATURE: HERB DRYING RACK AND OTHER TOOLS TO USE

Once you have harvested hemp or other aromatic herbs it will be necessary to dry them if you want to continue to preserve their aroma and therapeutic properties. Temperature and humidity are two fundamental aspects for the success of this operation.

The ideal temperature for drying cannabis flowers and aromatic plants is between 18 and 24°C, with humidity ranging from 45 to 55%. Lower temperatures stop drying and increase humidity, with the risk of mold forming. Conversely, higher temperatures will overdry the buds and alter the aroma.

What do you need to create the right thermohygrometric conditions? 

• Fan;
• Air extractors;
• Dehumidifier;
• Air conditioner.

Fans and extractors guarantee the exchange and movement of the air which is used to control heat and humidity. With a dehumidifier you will certainly be able to keep the humidity level at an acceptable value, but an air conditioner is also a valid solution because you can directly set the desired temperature and humidity in the drying environment, especially if it is large.

We also recommend that you get a thermometer with hygrometer which will allow you to constantly monitor the temperature and humidity parameters.
