I know it's old thread, I have had pretty solid drying and cure method for few years now with photos but as I did my first auto runs last year I tried the same technique and it worked but I could tell that I wasn't hitting the aroma taste and smells that I should have been, so im going to try the atyle you mentioned for my autos that I have coming up and see if that helps, even though I have a good way doesn't mean that it can't be improved to bring out the real top quality buds that im after. Is there a better why to dry autos then using the photo method, should I hang the whole plant instead of branches?any pointers u have throw them at me please.time to start knocking these autos out of the park.
