  1. Well I am nearing chop time for my first plant and I have a question.How dark is dark enough to dry. Does it have to be pitch black? Reason I ask is I don't have an extra closet to dry in. Right now I keep my grow cab in an extra closet could I hang the buds from the ceiling above the shelf in there and use that? It won't be totally dark, don't know if that would cause problems or not. If it will ill have to figure something out.ThanksMike
     
  2. Mostly dark is okay for drying bud. Indoor light also isn't usually a problem for THC, as long as you keep your stuff out of sunlight. UV rays are what break THC down, if I'm not mistaken (which I very well might be).
     
  3. Keep the harvest hanging in as dark as possible and no direct sunlight

    During the drying time the plant being in the dark will continue to process its stored sugars until the plant is dead

    JMO and 2 cents :bongin:
