I've been wondering this myself for some time, best bet is to set up a little picnic blanket and get choppin, but i figure there could be alot of problems with drying outdoor, like wat if it rains???

I will have the same problem. My solution is: chop and manicure the plant, tie couple of stems together and hang them upside down, in shade on the dense tree or tall bush.Oh, before i hang them i plan to put a plastic bag over them with opening towards ground to protect against the rain. And check them every day or two... Never tried this before, hopefully i t will work..
peace

Im sure the plastic bag wont be good. Mold and other issues since plastic doesnt breathe. Also plastic is staticly charged and will pull your trichs right off the budd and they will stick to the bag permanently. Look at weed that has been kept inside a baggie look how many trichomes rub off and are just stuck there.

I think he might be British. In which case a boot, is a trunk, like the trunk of your car.
Or I'm just stoned.

i solved my outdoor drying problem by building a make shift hut in the bush by my house, cover it with tree branches and put small plants on the roof. they stay up year round.works great and keeps rain out. no air flow problems either, i just drill a few holes in the bottom of one of the walls, and at the top of the wall on the opposite side.
