Drying Techniques, Which One?...

cheetah844started grow question 2 years ago

I have a question on drying, what are your opinions? 1)drying the whole plant fan leaves & all 2) drying the whole plant with only fan leaves removed 3) wet trim, cutting each branch off separately & then hang drying I'm looking for best quality flower not the fastest.

I think I'm going this route as a test... I'll cut off all of the fan leaves. I feel they'll get crispy & as soon as their touched they'll crumble onto sticky trichomes. I'll pull a couple branches off & dry singly but leave sugar leaves attached. Then dry the rest of the plant without fan leaves whole.

I don’t like wet trimming personally. It’s easier but outcome not as good IMO I pull the main branches off 12-18” sections, pull off any leaves I can see the stem/petiole of.. then hang to dry.. then trim remaining leaves after full dry is complete

For me wet trim Feels like I have less waist as it’s easy to use in things. Your Plants look sweeet 🤙

My personal preference is for wet trim... drying fan leaves is silly and shriveled up become a nuisance... and you lose too much with dry trim unless you've got a set up that allows you to strain out the keif...

Option one is the best. Dry the whole plant fan leaves & all.

How many Boveda packs into one jar having 50-70g of weed in it?Hi guys! If I have a few 2L jars where the full jar can hold a 100g of dry weed. I'll put 50-70g in each jar. 8g Boveda packs work up to 28g of weed. The next Boveda is for almost 500g of weed. Should I put 2-3 Bovedas into one jar or do they not add up to a higher total volume?
