I skimmed over that u were only using the shade cloth racks for C nug that's meant for hash. Just warning against using them- specifically racks made out of shade cloth) for anything else because I have seen them do serious damage. The herb that came off them was decent, but they were kinda flat and sometimes squared. He couldn't have gotten into his drying scene to flip them if he had wanted to... they racks were big and there was no room to flip. He would walk down an aisle between these stacked racks and the nug would be moist on the side touching the shade cloth. His ventilation over and under racks was excellent.
I know the racks you are talking about. I have used them for loose stuff in the past. I like their mesh a lot... I cut the tiers out of them and reshape them to fit inside a 35gal sterilite container, suspended at the top of the container on the inside edge that give the container rigidity. After I weigh my trimmers' nug, I gently dump it on to the layer of mesh and sift out the shake before bagging.
Last year I tested the efficacy of the material from a bunch of different laundry bags I found at local big box stores... all were made with fabric similar to the red/black pic i posted.
In the end, the best flat drying surface i came up with was from a cheap walmart fishing net with holes a little bigger than the white one in the first pic. It never had to be flipped because the holes and the sag conformed to the bud rather than the inverse, like with shade cloth. if i were making big racks out of it, i would use wire at intervals along the frame to break the major sag into smaller sections of sag...
Oh, I called you an "operator", but you probably figured that out. I meant it in the best possible way.
