I grow in a legal state in New England and was concerned about bud rot in late flower(probably finish mid-Oct.) Have built portable greenhouse https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014JPGG1S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
but still have some in open.Thought of using leafblower(super hairdryer) to dry buds after normal fall rains. Any thoughts? Seems bud rot is the biggest destroyer of late harvest in this area.
iam getting one this yr,have seen friends use them just gotta go easy, if u don't get the early morning sun the dew is gone in minutes using it

Seems to make total sense to me- got the thought from another local grower and had that lightbulb moment LOL, but getting same from another old School grower(you) helps me go forward and the plus is the noise is fairly common at that point in the season- hell, I might even use it to blow leaves. LOL

I used a solar powered attic fan with a timer and battery to run at nights in my kennel, but the outdoor odors killed it for mama.

you guys have power outdoors could put a timer on those blowers..
