Hi fellow growers,last year i bought a small land and i harvested decent buds.But my land is located just near the freeway and i am facing dust problem.even after i clean the area im having dust and dirty suff in my buds.i know it is not safe to mist flowering buds as it can cause mold but how can i get rid of those dust and dirt in my buds.Thanks

I'd say preventing it would be a better action to take, get a tarp to block the dust or a greenhouse for your plants or something.

Yea or plant some tall trees to wind block or ground cover if there is dry dirt patches around. Fucking try some santa anna winds around a bunch of barren farm land. I got hammered twice this year on two crops. 'll take rain any day.

is there anyway you can plant grass seed or any sort of cover crop, clover or such on the dusty areas? doing so would help tremendously
definitely you must try something a heavy dust will wreck havoc on flowering buds. I seen it on a large scale just this fall. a guy I know tried to grow in a heavy dust area and it ended up terrible for him. 100 yards away the neighbors with a fraction the amount of dust looked fine. this fella had dust every day when dry not just a once and awile thing.
I can't think of any way other than preventing it in the first place as once it is covering the plant it won't be the same.
