Thanks, I think I'll just try with one or two low qual buds and see what happens. We have dehydrators that have 32 and 16 circular trays that we use for tomatoes etc during the veg season. They retain 95% of the taste when dried. That's what got me curious. I'm hoping that controlled environment and timing might increase the quality of my bud. (Plus, I won't have to hang them in the barn for the neighbors to try!) Thanks for the input. pbwy
