@Fermented_Fruitz French toast is just a shortcut soufflé and I would eat Alfredo on a soufflé. Then again I would drink Alfredo so there is that.Alfredo sauce on french toast instead of syrup and cinnamon. You haven't lived till you try this.
Much of my growing style started with outdoor farming. The best vegetables and flowers were cut in the early morning, they had the best flavor and aromas. Fruits tolerate handling better in the early morning. Because of this past harvest experience/practice I just carried it over to my indoor harvesting of early after lights on. Then yes, a dark cool place to dry. I shoot for 65°F 55%RH Depending on the time of year that can be easy or hard to do.Oh it absolutely does; that's literally one of the reasons we do both of those things in the dark.
The difference between pre-harvest darkness and post-harvest is that the plant is still very much alive pre-harvest. Even when you chop the plant, it's not "just dead," there are biological processes that will continue to function to the best of ability until those processes slow down and cease.
My argument is that you're already achieving chlorophyll degradation by A) stopping biological functions of the plant by harvesting and B) sticking them in the dark to dry and cure.
Is sticking your plants (while still alive) in the dark somehow jump starting chlorophyll degradation? There are studies on the effect on plants exposed to total darkness on the levels of chlorophyll, and data to substantiate decreasing levels over an extended period of time, but not in 24 or 48 hours.
I've seen growers in other groups taking advice from others that they had to do this, only to end up with moldy plants because it's not a natural process, there is no standard process to even do it (24 hours? 48 hours? 72 hours? Fans on? Off? You feeding? Watering? Letting your heavy wet pots sit in the dark?)
Good Morfnoevight All! EO'n'Dabs.
Wow I got the lazzies, even typing is an effort

Nachos for dinner? Ms. MOG requested, Happy Wife, Happy Home. She makes more of a salad and I like Guacamole with mine.

The coffee was notable. Breakfast heavy on the fruit and veg. The Marmalade so flavorful.

@Lil Dab I think I have the FG knot in my tool kit now! I found a technique wrapping the braid around my left pinky the allows me to tension the line correctly while making the knot. It would be easier on bigger lines.
