Guest 420Farmer Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 (edited) I dried a few plants outdoor a few seasons ago. No tarp just hanging straight in a tree as i had no more space to dry indoors, but it was quite a dry few weeks. No bud rot at got it about 80% dry, Not something a would risk my whole harvest on though. Edited March 30, 2011 by 420Farmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loam Gnome Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 (edited) Groovy stuff 420. We are aiming to pull over 100 Oz so we wanna keep it all stealthy. Camp tarps will indeed come in handy elsewhere to Wolf If we can get it mostly dried outdoors by some means then the rest can be arranged after. Be a lot less bulky to move by then too and the main smelly bit kept from home too. Am after an effective organic anti mould spray that I can use through to near the end of flowering that will retard all dodgy spores, to help things along. I guess neem, tea tree spray is worth a go but not for the last week or so as it has a strong flavour/smell. But sprayed on regular it might actually camouflage the smell of the girls as they peak too...Want to hear more bout this.

Loam Gnome Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 I thought 100 was a lot, for Scotland anyway Don't worry mate just a lot of bluster and bravado from me at 51 lat but, sounds true for Farmer Boy (the flash git).... ~It is achievable though and we really are aiming that far this year so keeping everything crossed and Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loam Gnome Posted April 7, 2011 Author Share Posted April 7, 2011 Hey outdoor dryers Heads Up! Check out old 'pill boxes'. They are dotted around the countryside from the days when we thought the Jerry's might invade. To house machine gunners. They are strategically along railway lines. Some are overgrown but many in perfect condition. Find one on railway land and you will be sorted. they have good ventilation and are dark and you could even fit a lockable steel door. We are gonna secure one and use a small gas heater inside too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
