What is that in F? (120?) That is ridiculously hot.
You can't get them in some AC with a scrubber I take it.
You might want to dig pretty deep, and hang in there. If you can get a fan blowing out, that should be helpful too.
Oh, and of course cover the hole. Any caves around, or anything?

I dried for about 17 days (60rh, 60F), and then I found that I didn't need to do the next step of curing (I think curing is actually the second time of drying process),
I want to know how to store buds after drying or curing in the hot summer, refrigerator or AC room ? Because the drying room is immediately prepared for the next run.
Thank you for your help

AC. Or cool cellar. High heat ruins it.

I've luckily always had ideal drying conditions. Is everything trimmed up, and ready to store? It's going to be all about timing.
I'm assuming you already harvested everything? I would have harvested in stages (2 days apart) when they were dry, trimmed, and ready to store, I'd jar em up (almost 3/4 full), and get em indoors.
From there I'd go through my regular curing process.
I know in Morocco they dry on roof tops in extreme heat. They basically do everything we're taught not to.
They have some of the finest hash on earth. I'd probably read a bit about their drying process, and try to mimic it the best you can..
Your situation is a tough one for me, as I've never had to deal with that.
I'm sure others have had similar experiences, and outcomes. They would be able to give you a concrete answer, as I could only guess

Thx,man Yeah, I know that.
I'm just curious about the ways to use refrigerators, such as "freeze drying or curing", Any advice ？,

Sublimation curing is the process of freeze drying marijuana then extracting the moisture with a vacuum system. Expensive setup.

If you try to cure damp buds youll wind up with mold in your grown and manicured bud. not cool. drying and curing are TWO separate steps

Do people still read grow bibles these days?


Re OP. That is hot, if it were that hot here In October, I'd be clearing the room in the basement. Its always nice and cool and the humidity is not crazy.

Indeed it is expensive as mentioned above. BUT there is anther way, IF you are willing to take a leap of faith and try it, using a frost-less frezer you can still do a sublimation cure. Read through this post, its long tread tho. I have tried this and it works however its a huge topic for debate, however its how i cure in summer ever since ive tried it

I've often thought about refrigerating cannabis actually once it's been property dried, and sealed.

I know this will be a debated issue, but I've got about an ounce of Thai that's been dried an sitting in the fridge for several months now, it was done because I was a bit too lazy, and didn't remove the seeds from the buds. The terps have surprisingly held their flavor well, and the weed looks great overall.

Anyhow, I've noticed a pleasantly surprising amount of freshness from the process. I certainly know freezing is bad, and I know the fridge is probably not exactly "ideal", but it's possibly one of the better options out of, many others which involve excessive levels of exposure to heat and/or light.

Exposure to light is simply the worst of situations, IMO. Light straight up destroys THC despite temps.

Wow, that color almost looks fake on that bud. You'll have to excuse my aloofness, as I medicated a bit too much this eve.
You had said you needed to clear some room for your next batch, right? So I'm not sure if you did a light depro greenhouses grow, indoor??? I'm a bit confused.
Anyway, what strain is that? I'm colorblind, and that nug is glowing blue. Was that grown in that heat? I've had some pretty colorful flowers through the years, but dam!, and most of the time I got the cool colors either by bringing down the temps, and cutting out all N by week 4.
If you get remember, maybe you can get a close up on that. I'll attach a pic of some pretty purps I grew outdoors in NY a long time ago,but I had about a week, or 2 of upper 30's, low 40's.

When we have a pack that has gotten dry and lost its nose we hit it with the suit steamer. Turns it back in a bag of the chewy gas for another 3 days.

I had a friend way back in the, and he'd always store his bud in the fridge. It was the best bud around by far. It was an original White Rhino from the late 90's.
Man you got a nice hookup. I haven't seen Thia around...idk when? I guess when The Dead was alive

These pop corn buds were cured using a frost-less freezer, they lost almost no weight and kept their terpene profile.

After reading your previous thread, I decided to give it a try "cut N" in 5 and a half weeks, which is now in day 4, week 8)

It's all indoor in normal environment with AC and dehumidifier，I focused on the leaf and floor temp only.
but it's summer now, so I don't have extra room to do proper cure.

My dog used to live in solo bedroom, but now it only lives in the bathroom, lol

In 17：25 of the video, talked about some freezed dried . Maybe the F and RH of fridge are different.

I dried and cured my bud using the 60/60 method for 14 days and that is it!
I also was worried about long term storage so I bought a small refrigerator with temp settings so I could adjust.
After placing my buds in vacuum jars they held 60-62% on their own.
after a few days added the bovita rh packs along with mini hygrometers and on lowest setting put my 20 ounces in the fridge.
They have been there 3 months now, bud looks amazing, tastes fresh!
