I need to dry my harvest in secrecy, so I came up with one idea, but i worry it might dry the buds to quickly. hang the buds in an enclosed Rubbermaid plastic crate with a dehumidifier in it (drill a hole, so the cord can through, then seal it) would this work? if not, what would?
That does not sound discrete at all how are you going to deal with smell. Dont make the mistake of thinking now that you have chopped it wont smell as bad. Little side story for you i had a friend that did EXACTLY what you plan on doing using a rubbermaid with fans etc. The smell was absolutely awful and he got caught so be careful and if you have to possbily do it outside but usually the easiest way is just to leave it hanging in your tent box or whatever u grew in and hope you have carbon going. Oh and u could always get ONA gel and that will help but i highly doubt its going to mask the entire smell of a full harvest but better than nothing get 2 or 3 maybe?
I agree with using some onagel if you don't have a carbon filter. Maybe get a big box from uhaul or somewhere and just hang the branches in the box with the gel inside. Cheapest thing I can think of.
Need some real advice on the same subject. I was planning on getting an industrial ozone generator but I hear they not safe I think I may have to duct from the tents with the carbon filters into a room with the OGen in it and set a timer to run at intervals and do my dry in one of the tents. Maybe I may replace the OGen with the ona gel but I think that could cost a lot over time and I dunno if it will really work. I know I gotta do sumptin there's a grow room in my area and its pretty well disguised but when they harvesting you can smell that shit from the street in front and the house is 40 feet in! Please lemme know what the bigger grows use. my mind is made up!
depending on how much bud....I would take a few ounces and lightly wrap it in a bowl of parchment. Put this inside a large paper bag filled with crumpled up balls of news paper. Close up the bag with clothespins. Dries slow. Fairly discreet.
