How to control odour in balcony grow

When you dry a plant whole it takes longer because the moisture from the main stalk soaks into the rest of the plant as it dries and it's like the plant has a lot less surface area, and the less surface area it has, the longer it will take to dry. Because you live in such a hot climate I would assume it would be best for you to dry her whole which means washing her whole. If you don't have big enough containers to wash her whole without damage, and you think you can still make it take a week to dry, then I guess you could wash each branch separately. Because you're washing her I would probably hang her outside on the clothesline for the first day, but make sure no direct sun gets on her for long periods of time when she's hanging.

Would it be OK to hang her on clotheslines for 24hrs bcz there will be too much wind and even sunlight from 3 to 6. And the night humidity will be more than 85% till Feb end. I can put her in shade while the sun comes but she will get too much wind in clotheslines plus night humidity if I hang her there in night

hmm maybe it would be bad to hang her outside after washing because she could get dirty again and too much sun.. If you can, hang her up somewhere inside out of any dusty wind and sunlight, and when she is as dry as she was before washing, she could go in the box.

We're on the waning moon now too so it's the perfect time for the chop..
No need to wait for Saturday but don't rush it and make sure all your stuff is prepared so you can just just cut, wash, and hang.

I have readied another box and put holes in them. Now I should prepare water to wash the buds. I plan to hang her dry in my room with fan running on full speed for 2 hours to dry her moisture from washing and then I will put her in box. I think she will take 7 to 10 days to dry in that box
