if someone uses a bud dryer box to dry the bud is it acceptable to later keep it in the box and set a timer to it and just remove air 1-2 times a day for a few weeks.

kind of a auto curing process.

My gut says it would work to a degree, but that it wouldn't compare with a Jar cure, or even a paper bag cure because there is no real...seal to allow the inner moisture to even out through the bud instead of being lost to the air since there is still normal airflow access through the intake/exhaust.

Will never know until you try though...but I like control.

yea thats what i was going to say i would work to a certain extent but like he said its not its not really airtight at all so its not really cureing

Not recommended. 'Curing' isn't necessary and the main purpose of the bud dryer is to remove moisture quickly to stop any possibility of mould.

Constant air motion is what stops mould even while the moisture content in the buds is still high enough to support mould growth. Mould spores are everywhere on this planet and given the right circumstances, will multiply rapidly. If you stop the fans, even for a few hours at a time while the buds are still moist, you're giving an opportunity for mould to grow.

I never left, actually. I just don't have 6-8 hours a day to put in to answering grow questions. Got a couple hours once a week or so to put into it, but I do nose around from time to time.
