How would you go about curing this size of a crop?

garbage bins? lol, maybe garbage bins lined with the big paper bags they sell at home depot to collect fall leaves and what not.

I dont know I love using paper or cardboard for desiccant for the first sweat. That's just me. On a small scale I do my first sweat in beerflats (2, one with the goodies and one as a lid) then into a plastic garbage bag. I can stack them and have a whole bunch of them kicking around. I really love the beerflats, kind of new for me started using them heavily about a year ago, they are everywhere now I use them for everything, great stackability!

I always used food grade 5 gal "free" pickle buckets with rubber gaskets in the lids , but it was at most 40 buckets for 80 lbs +/- at a time.....but.....

They`d already been brought down to 62% RH in the drying rooms with dehueys and air exchange twice per minute before going in the buckets , so no extra burping was needed.....now.....

Anxious to see whatcha come up with Bro....Hope all`s goin well.....and.....

Peace.....DHF....:ying:.....

plastic bins/totes with the best sealing lids you can find. or you can get those 3/4ft tall paper yard clipping bags from hardware store(just imagine a giant paper grocery bag).

When using plastic totes, a large trash bag between the lid and bottom will help seal it better to slow moisture loss in curing and drying

I'm curious as to what the final weight is.
I just scored an acre in the mountains of Colorado for next years grow. South facing meadow surrounded with an 8 foot tall fence at 6800 foot above sea level.

I'm hoping reaper is OK. It's been a while since he posted, and he had said he'd let us know.

Maybe he's waiting until things are settled in an end-goal sort of way, but the total silence has me a bit worried. Seriously.

Everything is OK guys. Been really busy. Just taking my time on the curing and the final hand manicure.

This is where we wag our index fingers at you like we're you're mother, scolding you for having worried us so much.. :biggrin:
