I only remove the largest fan leaves. I hang them at 16c for around 10 days. It retains way more terpenes etc. My next harvest I’m drying in the fridge :)
I did it once that way, but it took far longer to dry and there's always the worry that bud rot to set in due to the leaves being in the way etc.

I've never heard of anyone drying in a fridge before. That'll be interesting.
Never give advice. Wise men don't need advice. Fools won't take it.

I don’t believe you get rot whilst drying providing the RH is in check. Any rot was most likely already there.

You can dry in the fridge. Is a method called slow and low by a guy called Ziggy something ( I can’t remember now) buds dried this way are said to be close to harvest in regards to terpenes, flavonoids etc

Very interesting about drying in fridge. I dont think my fridge will be big enough haha.
I tried your way of drying once and it was very difficult to trim them once they were dry and all the leaves had curled in. I can't compare if it was better or worse smoke but it was very good :)

Agree on the dry trimming. It's definitely a pain in the arse, but, retaining more terpenes, terpenoids and flavonoids definitely give a greater entourage effect with a higher medicinal value

I agree with chew on the fact it is retaining more terpenes. I have done it this way many times but then I was single amd working less hours at work. Now I trim straight away because of the dry trimming pain in the butt.
