I find the guides i've read a bit paradoxal, they say the drying area should be well ventilated (lots of air in/out) but they also say air is not good since it will break down more of the plant material to CBN (which i absolutely dont want).

So, what's better, just hanging them inside a closet with no ventilation or puting a fan inside there too?

you beat me to it ..... im chopping on monday and ahd the same question....

no fan, but keep the closet door open

maybe a fan that blows out air, but no air intake?

fan pointing away so that there is air flow without directly hitting buds.

My drying area is quite humid, so I've been basically forced to run a fan down there, but have been attentive that the flow is not directed into the growth. One oscillating blowing on 'lo' below the hanging buds, one on the floor, blowing on 'hi' away from the drying area to move the humid air off the floor and towards the stairs. I'm gonna have to look into this fan creating/converting CBN when drying issue. Never heard of it.

Not only are the guides paradoxal the no moving air is complete nonsense,i tried all that crap exactly how they say,then i also tried having constant air flow moving across my buds in the form of a bud dryer,the only difference between the 2 was drying time,the smoke both ways way indistinguishable from the other.

Im to the point with half the crap the so called experts reccomend that i wanna see detailed lab reports,along with DBT data from testing reccomended methods against moving air methods.

You can have air blowing directly on your buds & the only thing that will happen is it will lesson the chance for mold.

Lol, i agree. When i started out i was planning on light, soil and water. And that's all you REALLY need. But, i added about $200 worth of stuff to make my plants better. I don't know if it's helping because i never grew with just water. I wonder if anyone has had good success without all the added ferts and equiptment.

Besides mold, my main concern is that the air doesn't cause my harvest to dry too quickly, thus greatly reducing any curing effect.
Have to agree w/MrHead . . . too many folks claiming too many things as fact when some of us were easily growing real nice weed well before the advent of the net because it's NOT rocket science.
I read stuff on here every single day that, as far as I KNOW, is complete bunk.
