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

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
