What is the best way to hang when drying? Any certain temp. room should be? Turning cloudy and some amber gonna chop tomorrow. DO I hang the whole plant? or just the bud branches?

trim off all the leaves and shit, and hang it up. i guess you could just hang the nug branches, but for simplicity you could hang the whole plant. i dont think really matters.

yeah just trim the leaves off as much as you can, and then hang the whole plant u[side down in a room temp condition, in the dark, i.e. a wardrobe, and open the door twice a day to help change the air...........after about a week or so, should be able to break the smaller branches, and gte a kinda popcorn pop to them.....after that just cure them in a an airtight jar, by opening the lid once or twice a day to that too................Peace out..........Sid

Do they have to be harvested in the dark?? Cause isnt this when they are drying so being in sun would dry faster correct??

light degrades THC so the sun would be really bad, but an indirect light light source I don't think would hurt it too much.

you don't have to harvest in the dark you just want to hang them to dry somewhere that is dark.

exactly............don't try to dry them too quick, you can ruin a good harvest by drying too quick, it's like a pint of Guinness, "good things come to those who wait" ...............Peace out............Sid

Im planning on cutting my outdoor crop outside, hang them upside down( the whole plant) for a night n some of the next day, and go back to trim then pack to take home to cure, is this a bad idea? to let them dry for a night/ half day outside hanging from a tree?? I dont really want to try and bring them home cause there is alot of them.. any alternatives to this? can i keep them in a cardboard box outside for a bit? i heard that will work. thanks for any replies!!
