please help drying !! dense buds

[Couch_Lock]

I've discussed fems vs autoflower with Bushmaster before. He's over here @ AF Network. He knows me from vapers tv in the past and ivlog.com

I sent him free eliquids years ago, I used to mix eliquid, slung some and vaped a lot.

Finally taking the plunge, I am a bit impatient waiting on fem (photoperiod) sativas......so autos are my new "thing" to try.

Has nothing to do with letting it dry before cut. I've actually decided to chop a plant after the room had been fed, no issues. If your getting mold, your temps and rH are off, or, it had already picked up the mold prior to cut.

I hang whole plant, 70* and 60% rH. After a week they're cut down and put in grocery paper bags for another week. Then into jars.
Above 70% back to the bags. Under 70% I jar (glass) burp twice a day till 63ish, then once a day till still stable at 60%. Then every other day, then once a week...
It takes a while, but this is where good weed becomes great weed.

Done it that way for a very long time.

Low terps can be many things, heat seems to be #1 warm grow conditions. Some terps dissapear above 70*F. Medium can play a huge part. Soil (and what it's made up of) can vary the flavor and terpene expressions as well.

Lawn paper bags > grocery paper bags.. The bags ppl use for weeds and grass....TALL, double thick paper bags win.

You can stick major colas in them.......fkrs are almost 4 foot tall

Don't water the plant for 48 hours....THEN chop.........Trim 10-12" stems with bud, sections........paperbag it for a day....then hang it until its ready.

Last run I bought a few of these........https://wedryer.com.............READY TO SMOKE .in 4-5 days your plants won't need a 3 or 4 week cure....every single bit of chlorophyl is gone. Pretty much ready to smoke/sell or make rosin, hash......your house will NOT smell at all, a nice thing for most of us.

If you deprive the plant of light and water for 48 hours? The plant thinks its dying and will put out a bit more THC..........I do this before I chop also.

i got 2 wedryers in my cart. they are absolutely worth it right?

I know it's a bit off topic but I am curious about the wedryer as well. Anything to do less trips up and down the stairs for me.

Awesome I have wanted to try this nice to have a video with instructions I am going to do two of the same strain and try that and the way I do it usually and see which Iike more. I have always wanted to try it and heard such food things about it seeing growers I respect on here doing it confirmed I needed to try it. This video and the fact that you endorse it is pretty much good enough for me. Thank you for the great link!!
