Transporting wet buds? - Cannabis Harvesting & Processing - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Hi there

I'm in the position of having to cut then transport some buds - I gotta go away for a while and can't dry them straight away. What is the best way to store wet buds for, say, 10 hours before I can hang them?

As it is, I'm cutting early so don't want to bring that forward to get extra drying time but that is an option I suppose. Maybe I should cut then hang for 24 hours before travelling so they are not totally wet.

I'm not talking huge quantities here - only from a couple of small plants but I want to do the best by them.

Thanks in advance

think the best bet for smell and what not is Mason Jars...there already wet so the jar isnt going to do much unless u leave it in there for a couple days and it will form mold but 10-12 hours is cool maybe take a stop off halfway and crack the jars for aminute. should be no big deal...

Just put them in a cardboard box. Thats what I always do. I personally wouldnt put them into mason jars wet.

Paper bag them up, til you get around to hanging them or go with the box method, but DON"T jar them for the MOLD MAN will come to visit you.
