OK, so I just chopped this girl yesterday.. she was grown outdoors. I want to slow dry, so I am leaving the whole plant intact along with its roots.
Last night, I brought her inside and set it up to start drying in our basement. It has very strong skunk odor. I did all I could to contain the smell, but by the time I woke up it stunk up the whole house. Tired of all the complaints from other occupants, I had to re-locate the dry location to our outdoor shed. Right now, its hung upside down inside the shed.
I was able to create good ventilation. There is good fresh air circulation. There is some light leaking inside, but not strong enough (I think) for the plant to produce chlorophyll.
Looking at our forecast for the next 5 days, I just need some advice on what to watch out for. Are these temperatures putting me at risk for bud rot, or mold? If these conditions are not at all ideal/unacceptable, I will have to think of another drying location. I understand lower temperatures means prolonged drying period - which I have no problem with. Is there anything I should be worried about? Notice that the swing in high and low temps is not much - I am assuming that's a good thing.. ?
