Question Too much heat bad? homemade drybox (speaker box) please help
So i was wondering if too much heat during drying bad for the plant ? Im asking because im using an old speaker box for my drying closet being that i only have one small plant its all wood took out the speakers covered up all the holes to eliminate anylight and im setting up a small heater with a man made cardboard built vent filling the speaker box with the hot air so wondering if it gets too hot in there would it be bad for my lil lady ?

you are trying to dry it faster by using a heater? i think your buds' smokability might change if you dry them fast like that.. i would just let them dry normally without a heater..

i would scrap the heater idea..

you just want them in a dry, dark place for a few days to a week before it all goes into jars.. the buds will feel crisp and firm - when the stems snap - it is dry - almost too dry..

it will only take a few days - the buds will feel crispy on the outside and firm inside - not squishy like when they first hung up..
