need some quick tips on drying

...I have some fresh green and I'm gonna have to dry it out discretely. This is the first time I've had to do this so any feedback would be great

How much? Are we talking branches here or loose buds?

You could get away with brown paper bags just leave it cracked open a little. You want to keep it away from light as much as you can. Also make sure there is atleast a little air circulation and also relatively low humidity (not over 60%) Dry until the stems snap when you try to bend them.

alright...thats what I was thinking of trying..I'm only talking about 10g of loose buds anyway (for now).

Is it bad to keep it outside while its drying?..as long as it stays dry of course

Never tried - but it should be OK unless its really cold or really hot, or really dry or really humid. lol..

I think it should work...its been around 60 degrees during the day here..probably drops to 50 at night...humidity is 60

I know that I'm drying til the bud looks good, like you said, but I've been seeing alot of variation in drying time by other similar posts...ranging from a couple hours to over the course of a week..how long am I looking at to properly dry this stuff?

..thx for the help btw..truly appreciated

It really depends on how dense/large the buds are. For me I had relatively light airy buds and it took about 3-4 days of hanging in my closet at 75 degrees. If you are drying in a colder area than me it may take longer like 5-7 days.

Hours is not a possibility

yeah..I figured they were full of shit

The only reason that I cant keep it inside is because of the smell..so..i guess I'll try this out

thanks again
