Never heard of them, I don’t think, but I just checked it out. Eleven bucks for a pack of twelve eight gram 62% is a pretty good deal. That’s cheaper than the Bovedas. I may have to buy a few packs. That’s my only complaint about the Bovedas, is that they seem to make everything smell musty after a while. The flavor’s still there, but the way it smells… No good. If I leave a jar open for a few minutes, the mustiness goes away, but still…

I whole plant hang on hangers in a grow tent cut off just the big leafs and let dry for 14-21 days depending on time of yr. I aim for 60 -60 temps and rh slowly dropping rh to around 55 rh untill the big stems snap then trim straight in to big mouth mason 1 gal jars put them in duffle bags and tuck in a cool dark closet . with no burping once it goes in the jar it cures 2 weeks upto a year in most cases 3 months max but i have 1 yr cured mac that blows anything ive seen out the water…

Old school brown bags for 5 days then into jars
Burp the jars 3 times a day for the first week then once a day after

Works fine for me,use to hang the whole plant but I find it don’t stink as much when you put it in a bag

Care to elaborate? What does he do?

May require some research thru his feed, but worth it, interesting guy.

  1. Full Plant, 60F/60RH, till stems snap.
  2. Buck up whole plant and store in black and yellow bins for two weeks, 60F/60RH.
  3. Then pt in jars.

Slow hang dry at 60/60 for two weeks, I’ve noticed my shits way stinkier in organic than it was hydro with salts but I haven’t run the same strains so that’s not a great data point but it’s something to think about. I can have a couple gs in my pocket out socializing and everybody smell it; no long cure just the long dry. Store in Mylar bags with boveda 58

That’s my approach too. I feel if you can get at least a 2 week long, controlled dry at 60rh, then the cure isn’t nearly as important.
