I've dried my culinary herbs for years by putting them in a paper bag, stapling it closed and sticking them in the refrig for a month. I tried that this year with part of my home grown harvest. I leaf clipped it and hung it to dry, and after a day, i cut the buds off one branch into a paper bag and put it in the refrig for a month. today was the day, no mold and it was crispy, much drier than the harvest that hung for a week or two, and aged and dried in the open, rotated paper bag for another two weeks (as per guidelines here). And it smoked great! This might not work it you have pounds of the stuff, but for a plant or two (and an extra fridge) it would work well. Also alleviating the odor problem.....
Think about it--colder air holds less humidity. What about all that food you put in your refrigerator, didn't cover and came back days later to find...dried up food!
