Drying -worst case timing

[Trying2Grow]

I harvested 3 small autos on Monday morning and hung them up to dry in an extra room in the house. My wife now tells me the in-laws are coming on Friday. She’s insisting they be gone before then. It will be 90F on Friday and the weekend so I’d think the garage or my windowless shed are out. Any advice? Wait till Thursday PM and trim and put in curing jars and open often?

Yeah,,tell the in-laws you got covid.

Hello T2G and welcome aboard

it all depends on how wet or dry the plants are

if dry , put them in some large turkey bags , the bags do a great job of masking the odors

if wet , put in turkey bags but check them a couple times a day to refresh them…open close bag , repeat as needed

yes , if you trim thursday , put them in turkey bags and burp as needed…

once again , the turkey bags really conceal the odors

happy wife happy life

good luck

cheers

If you have to remove them from the house, bagged like Big said and placed on the garage floor would work. Concrete in the shade stays cooler than the ambient air temps.

Can Subbie play Sapphire?

sometimes it is difficult for me to believe that we grew up watching Amos and his Crew……

boy howdy , saying times have changed is the mega understatement of the day

Yeah,,tell the in-laws you got covid.

That was actually my immediate thought, but my wife wouldn’t go for it, so I’d have to play sick to her.

I’m off to the store for turkey bags. I hadn’t heard of using those, but see now that many people use them. I’ll wait to put them in as long as possible and burp them regularly. I’m early in the learning curve, first grow. THANKS

Not to be a wet blanket but my wife complains about the stink in the house for a couple days after trim day. Do you have a tent free with a carbon filter? I have dried in my tent and that takes care of the odor.

Holy mackerel! Sapphire’s got supper ready… Ptomaine time

gawd I am lucky

me and Swede just love the wonderful and many fragrances wafting out of the drying room and permeating the entire house and the neighbor…
