Some updated pictures .Been very busy doing sucker's and weeding can someone advise me on witch RH controller would be the best to use on my flue curing chamber to run a vent fan.

I plan on using this controller for my flue curing chamber, which I have yet to build. http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=37&products_id=377 I used it for my greenhouse, my air curing chamber and my kiln, keeping my seedlings warm and appropriately moist, as well as just running my garage while I was hanging beef in it. Being plug-and-play makes it just so easily versatile. I find it reliable, and accurate, especially compared to the non-digital humidity controller I borrowed from a friend. I appreciate the ability of it to control temperature and humidity. You can do things like switch it to humidify or dehumidify (it is either/or), as well as heat or cool. When I am curing, I have it on humidify with a humidifier plugged into it, but when drying, I have it on dehumidify with the ventilation fan hooked up to it. I even had to have it on dehumidify a couple times when there was just so much fresh leaf in the curing room that it would naturally climb above 85%. You can set how far it goes above or below the set point before it turns back on again. You can set high and low alarms, whether it runs on or off in case of a short, and you can adjust the zero point.

Someone else said they had one, Knucklehead or Jitterbugdude, I'm not sure, and said that the company has really good customer service too.

I have had to delay topping the cos negero in the first picture as I'm waiting on the Virginia 116 in the second picture to get a little more advance.

Looking great. I like to top earlier, as soon as the first flower on each plant begins to open. I top in stages, as necessary, not all at once.

About fourteen I took the first four off the bottom so I could mound the dirt up to support them in the wind.

Sorry but with translate ... !!!

About fourteen LEAVES ? I took the first four off the bottom so I could mound the dirt up to support them in the wind.

You removed 4 sheets(leaves) of bottom(stocking) of the plant to be able to stumble effectively?

It's been a busy two weeks since I last posted some pictures. The first picture is some Virginia 116 and the second is the leaf tied up ready to go into my flue curing chamber.
