The Harvest Process

There are four steps to the harvesting process: Removing and trimming, drying, curing, and storing. Each step requires different specialized harvesting equipment.

Harvest Step #1: Removing and Trimming Equipment

During this vital first step of harvesting your indoor crop, growers can either trim by hand or utilize a harvest trimming machine. 

Harvest Step #2: Drying Equipment

Growers have a few different drying methods, including: 

  • Hang drying in a controlled environment (in the grow room or grow tent)
  • Setting plants on plant drying racks or drying nets
  • Using a freeze dryer machine

Drying lasts 5-9 days and requires a steady slight breeze to dry the plant material and prevent mold. 

Optimal drying conditions: 

  • 65-75°F (18-24°C)
  • 45-55% humidity

Harvest Step #3: Curing Equipment

Curing your harvest decreases chemicals that can cause bad/harsh flavor. The cure breaks down leftover minerals and sugars produced by chlorophyll, improving your plants flavor. It also preserves aromatic compounds.  

During the first 2-4 weeks of the curing process, dried plants are sealed in airtight containers and opened or "burped" regularly to remove moisture that naturally builds up.  

Optimal curing conditions: 

  • 65 and 75°F (18-24°C)
  • 55-65% humidity

Curing makes your harvest ready for long term storage, to get rid of all the moisture and prevent future buildup of mold. Curing can be done in jars or with a curing harvest machine. 

Harvest Step #4: Storage Equipment and Supplies

After your crop has been cured, it’s time to store it. We’ve got all the grow storage supplies you need to safely store your product:

  • Bags
  • Humidity packs
  • Storage boxes and cases
  • Vacuum sealers
  • Stackable dishwasher racks
