Welp, that didn't end the way I had hoped…
Welp, that didn't end the way I had hoped…
I guess I messed up during the drying process. Such a beautiful cola, too, but I forgot to take a pic before I noticed the mold - at which point I just started peeling away chunks at a time ☹️
What a bummer.

The moldy blur effect.
At least you learned how to not let it happen the next time.
-
How do you make sure it doesn’t happen?
-
I'd guess like any other mold prevention, moisture control.
-
-
I just hope I learned the right lessons 😅
Prolly need to break the buds up, lower the humidity, have more airflow … the usual mold mitigation stuff (that I thought I was doing right)
-

That sucks 😭 did you salvage anything?
-
Sadly, no. It all looked great on the outside, but everything had this inside. Most of it wasn't visible until I broke the buds open, but once I noticed it, I just went cutting through each one. It was too much to be worth risking, and after thinking on it all day we decided to call it a lesson
It was a sad lesson, anyways
-
-
How did you manage to do that?
-
I guess because I was trying that "hang the whole branch to dry" method, with the same arrangement I had with the larfy harvest before it. I needed to increase airflow, I think? I dunno, but I think I'll stick with taking everything off the strm for now
-
You mean the entire plant or individual branches with the fan leaves removed? Because the latter should be fine as long as there's some air circulation and the relative humidity isn't too high. That's how I've always dried them and I've never had mold. Few times I've moved them drying elsewhere after the surface has still felt moist after like 4 days of drying.

Boooooo!

Right?

I hope it wasn’t your only stash

Nah, thankfullyr
