Odd question on mold

I've looked and looked and couldn't come up with a thing on this. I did search.

:?: At what temperature does mold not become a factor when drying buds:?:

I asume at freezing mold will not grow,, but what temps are safer(-est) for (very) slow drying of fresh cuttings?

I'm thinking of experimenting with a wicked slow dry / cure for effects.

I don't have any science behind this answer, but I would go somewhere around 60-65 degrees. This way it is cooler, but not so cold it could cause damage. Also, as I am sure you have considered, the biggest thing is just to make sure you have low humidity and you shouldn't have any problems (especially if you haven't had any mold problems thus far).

yea its humidity that gets you but if you build a cardboard drying box with recirculating air via pc fan and passive intake your golden

humidity is more of a factor than temp. And exposure to spores.. Depends on the strain but any acidic plant is a potential target for mold.. Clean grow room, humidity under 50% and removal of low growth and good air circulation will all help keep it in check..

I know I can dry, and adjust time with humidity. What I'm asking is temp / mold. I'd like to try a cure / dry combo but need to gain knowledge on the mold first. If the mold is non-existant at a certain temp, one could take months to dry and I'm interested in if it effects what I like in a smoke.
