make a rack out of screening or some of that mesh stuff.
simple enough aye?
Putting up tracks for the existing racks is exactly what i was thinking,as soon as im done drying this harvest im going to fix the design,both dryers have been going for 7 days straight now & i havent even made it 1/4 of the way through all the plants,fuckin with all the racks in both of them is starting to be a real drag.

Default Ah Ha !
Ive solved the heat issue.

After giving this way too much thought i went back to the basics,green light does nothing for weed plants hmmmmm............,i mounted a light outlet inside one bud dryer & installed a 60 watt green bulb in it,with the exhaust fan going & the lid fully closed the green light keeps the internal temps in the bud dryer at a constant 81 degrees.

The added heat from the light has sped up the drying process to where it now takes 3 days to dry,it has also changed the way the plants are drying,they now dry more evenly & the smell of the dryed buds has more of a skunky bite to it.

The taste of the buds from the heated dryer is very close to fully cured bud,im now going to use this heated dryer along with a 1 week cure for my smoke.

If anybody needs a pic of how to install a light in this dryer just ask & i shall post one,i still have not got around to redoing the shelf supports but that is next on my list,after the shelf redesign i will surely post new pics.

Did you use a regular green bulb? I mean, any old incandescent green one? I'm getting ready to flower soon and was always wondering if I needed a green horticultural bulb or if a plain green one off the shelf would do.

To tell the truth yes im in a rush,for the size harvest i had i knew i'd of had buds hanging everywhere if i didnt do something beforehand,a closet would not have worked for me,even running 2 dryers full time was not enough,i had to stagger the harvest in 3 day intervals.

The bud dryers are no great work of art nor are they better in any way over tried & true drying methods, but when you have large harvests & cant afford entire rooms dedicated to hanging buds they sure are handy & 4 times as fast.
