We were having a bad weed drought by the time our harvest came about so there was a lot of bud getting fast dried around here, we were picking it off the drying line and drying it out a joint at a time. Best way I found was folding the bud up in a brown paper bag or brown envelope, broken up a bit, and sitting it on the 600w ballast for 10 minutes at a time until dry. You have to take it out and shake it about a bit and let it cool down every ten minutes before you put it back so it doesn't frazzle. Found that worked better than in the oven, but I would never have dared have my oven on high anyway.

It isn't a nice way to smoke your weed though, it's harsh and doesn't taste great and I guarantee it'll be an anticlimax after all the work you've put in, but sometimes it has to be done :peace:

Similar to @Cannacat I use a warm appliance, in this case my cable box gets pretty warm to the touch, so I use it. I find the stem to be the main water retainer, pulling that out will help a lot as well as exposing surface area by breaking up the bud. I won't expose bud to anything over 100f or so, it just wastes the bud IMO.

For the future if you get a vape you can test the product much sooner, as you don't need the veg material to dry much, you're really just collecting the "live resin" right off the flower ;) I use a cheap ($50) flame powered pipe vape for testing, called a VaporGenie

There is no quick dry method. Hang your shit up like everyone else and wait 3 weeks. 1 week to dry and 2 in jars.

I meant for earliest sample. If somebody is really fucking impatient tho you can just chop up fresh bud and simmer it in butter for an hour. That shit will get you higher than a kite. Only need to eat maybe 1-2 TBPS depending upon amount of bud and potency

take 3 grams of fresh weed and simmer it in 3 tbps of butter or oil. After an hour eat all of it. You'll be baked for a good 5 hours + if that's what u want. Minimal loss of bud and helps you get high until ur shit is dry

the best way i found on the net that works really well is this :)


Turn your toaster oven onto bake on the lowest setting it has. Take your herb and cut it up small Then take the tray you would use to say, toast peanuts and put the cut up herb onto the tray. Next place the tray ON TOP of the toaster oven NOT inside it! Turn the pieces of herb over every 5 minutes or so. This typically takes a good 20-30 minutes but is well worth the wait. The high is great, the trichomes remain intact and the smoke is semi-smooth. I like it and it works pretty well

never going to be as good as letting it dry for a few days in a 25c room with good airflow ( quick way to dry buds in 3-4 days)
