we use our grow tent but the principle is the same. we raise our net up high and hang branches off that, then we move the lower net up and do the same. I try to keep it cool at like 19c and keep some air movement going and run the extraction as per normal. about ten days later its all nice and dry and ready for curing.


We also made this small box(it has a lid!) with a small activated carbon filter and a pc fan(slowed down) for drying tester buds or smaller ones.

@flip uses cardboard boxes in bottom of tent i think. that seems to work really well.

This is how me and HMR dry in the tent, just a fan and filter and a air fan to keep air moving.

a small 60x60 would work and easy to take down as and when you want to use it

Yea, if you need to dry in your tent whilst the lights are on, a cardboard box works a treat. Keeps most the rays off!

Just aim a little fan in the box to make sure you get adequate air circulation
