Nope never.... Not that i would recommend doing but.... Ive been very short on bags before and had a whole plant in one bag.... Layers of news paper in between did the trick, just changed it every couple of days.... IMO have the air space and not rolling the bag down too tight stops buds from being squashed....
Yea mate so does mine... :thumbs:
Thanks N.W :smoke:
Yeah Tang I think I was!! 
ok well theyre off the ground and in a box like rob suggested :thumbs:
didnt wanna close them to much but didnt wanna have them open so just a simple single fold is what i got going..
my RH meter which you can see is sitting in the box not in an actual bag and its reading over 60+ RH should i worry about mold? id imagine its even higher in the bags with buds..
If i was hang drying i would hang them for a week since its around 60 RH, then id check the stems to see if they crack...how do i "check" them or know when theyre are dried out since i have zero stems on any, just bags of straight nugs..should it take less than a week since the stems have been cut already?
i know the buds will feel kinda dry on the outside but is that what i rely on? just wanna play it safe guys :smokebuds:

I now know what method to try on my first dry/cure! Just wanna confirm u dontbhave to hang dry at all? I keep getting mixed info when I started looking into this. Some say dry 3 days then bag and I've heard straight in bag then to jar for cure
As far as i know if your using the brown bag you dont need to hang dry. Ive alwayss hanged dried in the past and it worked out pretty good to be honest but more experienced growers on here are saying they have done both and this method holds fragrance better so thats why im tryng it. i didnt hang dry just straight into bags after chop

They will be fine bro, ideal world you would make tho's bags air thight as poss... When the bags are open it takes a little longer too dry... They should be dry in 4 to 5 days, but be careful once there nearly dry the moister goes quickly and its easy to over dry them.....
No you put your Fresh cut buds into paper bags.... What i always do and like i say ive Never lost bud too mold in over 3 years.....
.... Mr Tang will confirm coz i was the one who told him.... lol...thanks a lot man, ill put clothes pins on all the bags just to make sure they dont open up completely and check in 4-5 days. ill post on this thread when theyre dry to share my experience and how well it worked, if i have any more questions ill be sure to ask
