Wet herb

The only person I can get any smoke off right now is selling bud that's been sprayed with water quite obviously. It is decent bud that has previously been dried out and then resprayed to add weight. :badday:

What would be the fastest way to dry this stuff out? I don't want to use much heat if at all...

I was thinking maybe sealing it in a jar for a couple of hours with some cotton wool or something? I use lettuce to rehydrate my buds in a couple of hours so would it work the other way around?

thanks

surely just leaving them out would dry em off better than putting them in a jar,
cotton wool might soak up some, but the humidity would still be much higher in the jar than if just left out with a fan blowing across em

I thought that but I wasn't sure, just wanted to get a second opinion on the matter.

They are small buds however...I can't just put a fan on them or they will fly away...any ideas?

Try the microwave on the lowest setting. Check every minute till you get the buds dried like you want them. Be careful of high setting...you can have a flameup. lol. :D

microwaves are for really desperate people,
i'd just pop them on some toilet paper and leave em on the top of my monitor (though i have a flatscreen so it doesnt work so well now :joint: )
on top of the main pc unit might work just as well.

could take a few hours but..
depends how desperate you are :chin:

let it sit out for a night, or else theres a few things that suck up humidity...too lazy to look right now though sorry.

Just leave them on the table at room temperatre they'll be dry in a few mins...are the stems wet? could just be that the herb isnt dried well enough definately not cured..

It's not exactly wet...more like floppy lol

If you try to pick a bud off the stem it will tear down and come off as a little stem string...I can tell it's already been dried because the stems are grey coloured yet it is very bendy.

I'll just leave it out for a few hours in my growroom...should do the trick.

Thanks for the suggestions.

sow the seeds

Put a piece of cardboard in with the buds or put em in a paper bag. That should suck some of the moisture out of them.

Got silica gel? The stuff in little packets that they put in shoes? Wrap it up in toilet paper or a paper towel & stick it in a venthilated container with it.

Worked for me once, repeat once. Only tried it one time, but it did work. Then again, I also have a tin full of it for preserving flowers & such, too.
