Government is the root of all our evils.

Very true.

@Emilya , I could put the harvest in a container and then in the fridge right?

sure, but be aware that the reduced temps will slow down the curing process a tad... but as long as you keep it sealed and in the curing range, all should be good.

Not concerned about time . When Penny told me about this method for my recent harvest , I was hooked. Now what's a good temp to keep ?

 

[Emilya Green]

I would think at a normal fridge temp, in the low 40's? I really don't know... only tried the low and slow once and found I preferred my tried and true mason jar method better.

Here's a link to the low and slow fridge dry method.

Mason jar method? Tell me more.

I cut my branches and hang them in a room being controlled to 63% RH, and I try to leave them in there for a week. After this I move them to paper sacks for a day or so to move the RH of the buds from near 70% to 65%, the beginning of the cure range. It is here that they are put into mason jars, filled 3/4 full and then burped every day for a couple of weeks to let out the gasses, but carefully maintaining between 65-59% RH in that jar. 3-4 weeks in that jar will give an amazing cure and if you want to go even longer, throw a Boveda 62 in there to hold it in the range artificially for a long long time.

Fancy .

I forgot the step before that.... as soon as I see 2% amber I move them into the death room. I put a nail in the trunk and keep them in the dark for at least 36 -48 hours. This convinces them to finish out and at that point my trichomes have not only gotten a couple of days more mature, but they also have not seen direct light ever again... so they don't degrade like they normally would in a regular day/night cycle. I have heard estimates that this end process adds nearly 30% to the quality and size of the trichomes. I don't know about that, but I do know it makes them significantly better than simply chopping one day after normal day/night cycles.

 

[SgtKiLLx]

Washed, drying. And root system.

@Emilya , I found your solution.

yes! that was exactly what I had in mind

 

[SgtKiLLx]

I'll put it on the computer later and into fusion and play with it a bit, make it smoother lookin.

Jus get me the diameter of your poles and the PVC you intend on using.

 

[SgtKiLLx]

So I've decided to flush the last two minis that are still showing signs of nitro tox and potassium def. Shoulda done this along time ago. Hopefully they'll straighten up before they finish

 

[Pennywise]

Did you get them flushed out?

 

[SgtKiLLx]

Ohya. Each one got a litre of fresh water run through
