:harvest: OK just curious as to how my harvest could be affected if left too long to dry unchecked before curing. Could this mean a harsh smoke.:jawdrop: Thinking of hiding it in an attic rather then the damp shed as i won't be able to keep tabs on it and i'm well paranoid about the dreaded mold. God damn this it why is this amazing plant illegal?!?!!?!
Shit its just started raining again :furious:
Thanks in advance folks :party:

how long is long? drying can take up to 2 weeks ive read. I have my 1st harvest drying in a big cardboard box in the loft and i put it in on wednesday night, and as of this morning, the single popcorns are well smokable, but the stuff on branches that is hanging needs a day or 2 still at most. my temps are around 17-22. humidity is at 55 with no probs sofar.

Everyone's bud!

Drying can be done in a week or two but curing can take...... well, as long as you have!! I'd suggest at least another week or two. Most people I know though dry for a week and cure for a week.
