Is there any problem with hanging the entire plant by the draw tie that you set up used for drying? I was doing it section by section and quickly realized that its going to take up a shit load of space if done like that. Can close to the entire plant be hung upside down by the V at the bottom of the plant? What are things to watch for...buds touching other buds? Would it create mold if the RH is kept at 45-50 in the room? Any advice appreciated.
Mold would be the problem to be aware of. As long as you have good air flow, no problem.
Not cutting it up and drying the plant as a whole will cause a slower dry which will equate to smoother smoke. ;)
Perfect Fence... thanks for the advice. I have a pretty solid oscilating fan that I'm going to put as far away from the plants as possible (no direct wind right) Also have a 6 inch vortex that will be left on that...that should help as well right? Should I put it on max this way new air is always coming in?
Seems as if you are well on your way. Seen alot of people hang whole plants and alot o people hang buds, I'm gonna hang the whole plants when time comes and think exhausting
the room is no bad idea. My bro hangs whole plants until crispy, trim a little, separates buds, then into paper sacks until mostly dry, trim more then plastic bags or jars for cure, here jars are the best, watch for to much moisture when in jars. Takes 2 weeks minimum.
Yep, going to use the paper bag method once I dry them for about four days in the grow room. Heard the paper bag method works well, especially with larger quantities (29 plants) Curious why you think having the exhaust on is a bad idea... it has to be kept on at least somewhat in order to shoot the smelly air through my carbon scrubber in the atic. I have a fan dimmer, so I am curious to see what other people say about this. Also have a d/h in there....relative humidity is hovering a tad below 50%. Temps about 65-68. Can anyone else comment on the exhaust please?Quote:

For Sure Midas...stick around, just a few short days I will load some pictures on the indoor growing thread as well as here, maybe even tomorrow night. Anyone care to comment why this guy said having the exhaust fan on is a bad idea?
Maybe cause of the stink R-piggy ?Quote:

sorry rapp, if you look at my post I said no bad idea. Makes sense to have the fan on especially pullin through the carbon scrubber. good luck, sorry to confuse.
yeah, no bad idea, and i exhaust my room while drying as well.
