Sorry I made this two threads after seeing the cluster fuck. I agree totally on bags like @Shadey said. I keep the bags popped out flat bottoms. I however lay the buds long ways layering the slightly big buds facing one way the the next the opposite. Laying them long ways and being to keep a few “railed out fans” attached to stop flat spots kinda by the fans propping them and creating little space, from leaving too long and too much grass drying per bag.
Flat Spot
The first full day plants are hung under lights. Then are kept in the tent for several days with fans and inlines still going.
This dark and motion from the fans keeps them drying slowly but still retains moisture. From there I knock what I can off in the tent, take branches, and trim. I load bags til they seem “filled loosely” and am satisfied since as growers, we are Quality Control.
Thanks for speaking and posting on curing since it’s something I suffer greatly from. Hey @Shadey always a pleasure brother. Hope you feel well. I’m trimming with my leg up laptopping to some Van Halen. Lol. Be safe everyone.
