Nothing new and nothing special.they dont even know about the fridge method or what you can comercally buy as cannatrol.a lot cheaper then freeze dryer but almost at the same level of quality since you are drying at 10c soo most of the terps are saved.

A problem that doesn't occur with a balanced diet. Life without a vaporiser . I think vaporiser and fridge were invented by marketers

If I imagine it, it hurts, you are right, and some things are done because of faith, some because of love, there are inclinations as well as weaknesses and intentions. I am no longer sure I am from this planet and you are asking philosophical questions, but there is certainly an answer, although why is the question put that way..... In RF do it the way you do it and where do I go next , where do I look for who I am then

Cigar cabinet, such a solution will close the issue foreverWe can think straight, but why that doesn't apply to Hemp, I don't know.

Any fans running directly on the buds? 60/60 should be good unless too much wind is moving. No fans directly on the buds, you want slow indirect air movement..

I’ve made this mistake and got hay. My fix was to remove fans and turn down my carbon filter to very slow. Another trick is to use paper bags (like a lunch bag)… for each cola.. this will slow down drying while still allowing the buds to breath. (I use bags or boxes in winter when RH is below 50 and it works perfectly!

I dry low temps and slowly I trim just before it's dry dry and put all the bud in a bucket and keep turning it for a few days my buds stink to high heaven then it goes in to jars bags or whatever I've got lying around

Amazing ! I’ve considered building something like this but don’t have space. For now my grow cabinet will have to do…

and super easy to build just one hole on the side you plug it later with silicone or something one asian minidehumdifier and a humidity controler to control everyting maybe 200$ or less total.i got my fridge of ebay for 20$ controler was 15 or 30 and dehumdifier was 20 i think
