Hey, not going to be able to dry my buds at home until I move in late Sept. So ill probably be harvesting right before i leave. Anyways if i pull them a few days before I leave, can i vacuum seal the wet buds for a few days or a weak until I'm where I can dry them?

Vacuum seal them in bags like I do with any fresh produce- meat, fish, mushrooms

I'm just worried about mold, and no smell until I'm gone. What do you think?

It will ruin all that hard work. Get mason jars. They will mold for sure of u vacuum seal. I don't seal them up till they have cured for 2 monthes in jars

They could be dry in a few days before you leave.. Hang them upside down and put a fan blowing around them.

Yea if u want shitty buds. Freezing it will either pop or break of the thc of the bud. Ask any real grower that has tons of tree or any one with real experience will tell u not to do that for sure.

Thanks for the quick replies folks.

Freezing wet buds doesnt seem like a great idea, maybe with dry ones, but I've heard conflicting ideas on that too. Mold was my main concern too, so it sounds like its a unanamous NO. I could always have a friend help me out for a few days but there really arnt too many ppl i trust with the amount i hope to have:D:D:smoke:.

I have gotten away with drying outdoors years back when it was necesarry but that wasnt with much and I'd hate to see a summers worth of work go bad.

Looks like ill just yank um right before i leave, assuming then wont finish by then (bagseed), and get them where they need to be to dry within 48 hours hopefully.

Thanks again
