Harvest, need help.

[Probe123]

Now my friends northern lights harvest is ready but as expected, wet as fuck, unfortunately now we have no where to dry it.

I know the process of drying is around 10 days (correct me if I'm wrong) - so, we shall harvest the lot of it and cut the leafs off, trim the little leafs off but seal them in air tight smell proof baggies (XL sized baggies) for storage.

Will leaving them wet/damp in the baggies for a long time reduce the strength/potency of the bud?

If not, could we just dry out the bud a baggie at a time?

Please help, and add any other relevant information would be much appreciated.

Thanks. :rastasmoke:

Why can't anyone just give a simple answer to my question?

[FlyGuyOU]

no. you can't they will get moldy and it will all be ruined.

[Probe123]

So if one was to buy weed, and its damp, how comes that hasn't gone mouldy?

[FlyGuyOU]

probably b/c its not very old. you're talking about sealing a wet plant in plastic and letting it sit....its going to get moldy, just like bread.

if you have the space to be able to grow, you should be able to find the space to dry...a brown paper bag if nothing else.

[Probe123]

Ah, so letting them sit in a brown paper as apposed to plastic smell proof baggie, will be okay? :jointsmile:

I do appreciate your time lol

[FlyGuyOU]

you don't want to seal them in anything. the buds need a fresh supply of air in order to dry properly. also i dont know of any air tight baggies other than vacuum sealed ones, which you don't want to use for drying b/c of air supply, they will work fine for storage after you dry them.

ideally you'll want to hang the stems from a string or something and keep them in a dark place with good airflow. one time i took a screen and placed it in my dresser drawer and placed all the buds on that and kept the drawer cracked open...

do a search on drying and curing. read them. take what you learn and adapt to your unique situation.
