Fast dry in a microwave is the worst thing you can do, what a waste of buds.
Agree, Dee Tee. I'm old and much more patient now. No more 170 degree oven dries, no more "on the light bulb" dries - but my (grown) daughter (MMJ patient) showed me this with mature buds that are slightly wet still. Seriously it tightens up the buds and does not kill the flavor. Of MATURE buds, folks. And no more than 4 runs of 1 minute each at 40% power. Wait a few minutes between runs 2-3 and 3-4.

Tupperware container + dry paper towel on the bottom. Wet paper towel + Tupperware lid.

Bud in container, wet paper towel over TOP OF CONTAINER, lid on with one corner up.

Set timer for 1 minute and POWER LEVEL AT 40%!!!!!!!! 40 fucking per cent!

Leave one corner of lid well off the corner while the lid holds wet paper towel in place!!!!!!

Check after each run. You have to wipe the moisture off the inner walls of container. Use your head for more than keeping your ears apart.

NOT RECOMMENDED FOR YOUR CROP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Test buds or you're out of smoke? OK.
Man you sound like my book, that I really need to stop fucking reading..lol

Test
for ripeness by removing a
small piece of
a mature bud. Put it in
a
microwave oven or conventional
oven. Set the microwave
on a low
power setting
and turn on in 10-
second
bursts until it is dry enough
to burn. Place
a little bit of the dry
bud in a single-hit pipe
and sample.
The dry
, raspy taste will be from fast
drying, but
you will be able to tell
how potent the pot
is.

LOL, I could just picture the OP with the biggest gladware he could find, the 4 quart size.:lol:
That'd be a total disaster bro, more than enough for a small test would throw the time and effort put into them completely away. The 'dry enough to test' is in more than 1 of Jorge's videos too, if memory serves.. namely where he's giving crash courses on grow room, electricity, showing grow room pics.. and then has Chimera on while smokin' one.

If you're looking for a way to destroy months of work with a microwave, then yes.. this is what you're looking for - otherwise, there's numerous threads on proper dry / curing method.
