    Default Drying tent or box?

    Hi, just thinking forward I may have a potential problem where some of my plants may be finished before others.
    I was planning on drying them in the grow room however it could still be in use when the time comes to chop some down.
    There's room in my loft for a small tent or box, I could also squeeze on in the spare bedroom but I'd need a filter for the smell which = extra cost.
    I've seen photos of people using large cardboard boxes with pc fans fixed to the side as a cheapo diy drying box, are these worth a go or is it just a case of saying "fuck it" and do it properly?
    What would I need if I were to do it right? Small tent, extraction fan, carbon filter etc?
    Let's get it on!

    I use a cardboard box for my test buds but tent for the plants, need the extraction, temps @ 21-22, humidity @ 50% and the filter otherwise you dont get the best out your hard work, not worth risking the loss IMHO, speaking from experience

    I've had plants finishing different times and dried in my groom in boxes without any problems as long as you stir them up on a daily basis, good luck brother, G'.

    Interesting, some form of sealed-ish box which doesn't let light in?
