I believe Mr. Brick Top read what he wanted to in my post so he could attempt to point out my human error, laziness, and the stupidity I posses (all of which I won't deny), but I would like to clear up a few things. I always dry by hanging, but I used to dry by using boxes, and this is how I did it.
My boxes were dresser drawers that measured 18x42x8 inches. They were made of wood so there was no cardboard. They were not too small.
The boxes were spread out in a ventilated dark room. Were they laid out improperly? I really don't think so.
All stems were always removed as well as all fan leaves. Bud leaves were cut down even with the buds. I always laid the buds out with at least 6 inches between each one, never more than 45 grams drying in any one of these large drawers at one time. They were cut quite small enough and there was no cramming involved.
Evidently I used to do something wrong, but it seems I had each one of Brick Top's points covered, and still there was some sticking. I think when you factor in "the stupidity some posses", in this case it comes down to some people reading what they want to read in someone else's post and then fabricating a list of errors in that persons procedure. Maybe it was my "peel it off" comment, but I thought I clarified that. When I say that they stick to the box, I mean they stick with an intensity equal to licking your finger and then touching a pane of glass for 5 seconds. When you remove your finger, that is how it is. Just enough to lose some of the trichs. For people who grow large crops to sell most of it for the cash, I'm sure this is irrelevant, or perhaps their own ignorance prevents them from ever even noticing it. For us growers who grow for personal stash, every little bit counts. I'm looking forward to seeing your harvest pics moobyghost. Best of luck to you.-P
