Hi all, thanks for all of your guys help during my grow.
Quick q, I have one strain( bruce banner) that's got some monster donkey dick buds.
Outdoor grow, she is ready and i have little experience drying huge colas.. any tips in regards to mold prevention? Should i bust this big buds up or dry them as it is?
A few pics a week and a half ago to two weeks
Any input, much appreciated.
Thanks all

Hang dry in a room that gets air exchange for two weeks - big or small it makes no difference :-)
Thanks king.
I saw one of your post in regards to where you air dry.. was drying in a dark closet with a small fan pointed at a back wall.
Asked the wife if we could dry in our ensuite that has a window a she could give two fucks.
Better bet to dry in the ensuite with better air movement than a closet I take it then?
Thanks for the help

As bud dries it places water into the air around it - you simply need air to move, an open door or window. If not the moisture in the air builds and you get bud.

There is no special trick, place a wet towel in a bag and seal it and in a week that towel be still wet and moldy smell - leave the same towel hanging in your living room and it dries in a couple days and dosent smell - same with bud.

The hang dry is what was used since the dawn of man finding this plant gets you high - it is all you need and the modern info is vastly wrong and very unscientific. I do also state that bud is smokable dry in a week but taste and smell take two so hence the reason to hang dry for two weeks but you can start smoking it after one. bacteria and enzymes takes slightly longer to finish hence the extra week.

Shit grown bud overdries as the bud dosent retain so much moisture but well grown bud dries to between 10-15% moisture. Its not complex and will smoke at this point.

Real simple set of rules but take a few grows to get it right. After two weeks you can jar just check the next day it stayed dry in the jar and your good to go :-)
