That photo of the deodorizer filter does look like it has a layer of charcoal in it.

I'm not concerned about the size of the bag as much as I am as to how many bags I can fit across a shelf with a little space in-between. I'd recommend measuring the shelf space - width and depth and size your bags accordingly. With my 4 cu ft dorm model, I can get three back to front and two in front of those side to side. Bags I just bought are 4 7/8" x 3" x 10".Thanks everyone. One final question i had is about the "lunch box sized" brown unwaxed paper bags.
I picked up a pack of 25x14x33cm. Are they too big?
estimate size measurements of a "lunch box" brown bag?

It's not the size of the bag that matters...I've use actual brown paper shopping bags before. They key is to not overstuff them so you get good air circulation around the buds and they can dry (the reason for shaking the bags).I'm not concerned about the size of the bag as much as I am as to how many bags I can fit across a shelf with a little space in-between.

EDIT: I typically put about 14g wet buds in a bag, another reason I use a smaller bag. Many do more weight than that. I prefer to limit the number of buds so that when the bag is laid on its side, there is only one layer of buds. Easier to separate them as they will stick together.
I don't know but the best way to find out is to put the meter in your kitchen fridge.Whats the ideal starting RH for the empty fridge? or is this totally normal and an efficient fridge?
Right, don't do that.maybe test the RH in the crisper, but ya seen multiple times this can cause mould so super hesitant.
The RH in the bag will be really high!Maybe i should be focusing on the RH in the bags more rather than inside the fridge itself?
However the RH is ranging between roughly 25-30% always when closed. AFAIK i thought we wanted the RH to be around 50-70%.

Thanks! Just cut down a branch i knocked over the other day and thrown few grams into the fridge to test few days before the plant comes down! Lets go!
What is wrong with the frost-free fridge in the kitchen? The one that you would be using to keep foods cool.I want to give this method another try but I dont have a spare frost free fridge,
uhh its filled with food, it gets opened and closed frequently in a humid environment and Im sure my family doesnt want everything in the fridge smelling like weedWhat is wrong with the frost-free fridge in the kitchen? The one that you would be using to keep foods cool.
Trim all the excess leaves off including the fan leaves and the ends of any sugar leaves that do not have any trichromes on them. Put the trimmed buds into inexpensive brown paper bags and put those in the back of one of the shelves. Check once a day and fluff up the buds if they start to settle.
There is no need to have to hang the stalks. Hanging them takes up a lot of room and is it worth it to spend the money on a new fridge just to be able to hang them? Removing all those fan leaves and excess sugar leaf material will help the harvest dry out at a good rate. Leave it all on and it can take days, maybe weeks, longer to dry the buds.
so im guessing it doesnt technically need to be frost free as long as there is some kind of defrosting feature? im still not sure if a cheaper dorm fridge will work for me as my relative humidity is around 70% when its not raining.Lion, post #2793 and post #3142 explains my use of a NON frost free dorm fridge. There is a lot of excellent info on this thread from seasoned growers using this method. A lot to read, but if you start at one of the post's I mention and go forward you'll get all the info you need.

Did you check the post numbers in mmm's post below?I want to give this method another try but I dont have a spare frost free fridge, I can afford to pickup a smaller like dorm fridge but all the frost free fridges online are more expensive and upscale, have any of you guys head success using just a regular smaller fridge? high humidity for me is an issue as I live in hawaii

yeah I took a look at the posts, it seems to me like that would be more feasible in a environment with a humidity level closer to 50% not the tropical one that im in, if I were to open the fridge I would just be letting warm humid air inside, maybe it could work if I had it in my bedroom and ran a.c before opening the fridge
ya I noticed the time I tried this method before that the buds would get crisp and ready feeling in the fridge then all the sudden after I'd pulled them out for a while theyd go back to all wet and I'd be like wtf? so get them to holy fuck i crisped it too much level then that should be perfect? got it.Hello
I’m a fridge drier. I’ve just got a handle on the technique now after multiple hit and misses.
I agree with you, the fridge needs to be closed to keep that humidity stable. My fridge is frost free. I think the biggest danger with a fridge that isn’t frost free is drip and damp.
I understand fridge drying now. In fact I don’t touch mine for 5 full days. For me when it feels like omg I’ve fucking ruined it, I pop it in jars with my humidity readers, and within 2-3 hours I’m sitting in that magical 61%-64% zone.
yeah I think thats the only way I can make it work is with a frost free one, i might be able to get one for around 300$ if I can get the dry right I want to try and get a wine cooler for the cure, just throw them in grove bags and then into the wine cooler and leave it for a few weeks then come back to some hopefully smokeable bud.Well, in my situation it works. My fridge is in the basement with humidity between 50-60%. I do run a dehumidifier, mainly to keep the basement dry and mold free. (We live in a high water table area)
Not sure this was in the posts I mentioned, but with a lot of bags full of wet bud I do get condensation on the bottom of the freezer. I just wipe it off periodically as it will drip on the bags.
It obviously does take longer to dry with higher humidity. But they do dry. My longest fridge dry was 21 days.
If I had to do it over I would go with a frost free unit.
