Thank you sir. Just as @deluxestogie said, once you figure out how to do it in your specific apparatus, it becomes easy. I found that a hygrometer greatly helped reduce time. I would change phases when the humidity told me it was time to rather than run it all standard. The chart that is floating around is very helpful. The only thing I eventually adjusted on it for my particular setup was the length of time each phase takes, as the chart is for an entire barn full of tobacco and , in comparison, my batches were minuscule and needed less time to evaporate the water content of the leaves.

Also a very nice smoke. Smooth and flavorful with very little acidic bite.
