p { margin-bottom: 0.21cm; } Hi guys
I'm new here (& to growing), so if there is already a post on this, please feel free to redirect me!
I have two outdoor Sativas I'm starting to harvest (it's late summer here); not a whole lot to them as I'm a bit of a lazy gardener, but still very pretty! My main concern is mould while drying. I live in a very damp area, which means lots of gorgeous mossy spots around, but also means clothes that sit in drawers too long go mouldy!
I've read through tips on drying/curing & I know there are fast-drying methods. I'd prefer to avoid that if possible...but maybe I have to because it's so humid here? I don't smoke very frequently these days, so I'd like to savour & enjoy the times I do...would hate to compromise potency/flavour. Obviously mouldy weed wouldn't do me any good either though!
Would something like drying it out of direct sun in my car still have the negative effects that oven-drying or similar would?
Any suggestions appreciated So far I've just cut off the top of one of my plants (the part that had more red hairs than the other bits), which is hanging upside down out of direct sun. Actually, today is a really warm day so I have it hanging on the shady side of the house by an open window. The times when it rains for a solid week are the real worry.
Thanks
