Ok guy i need your opinions....
PROBLEM:
...i have nowhere to dry my buds when the time comes.
Going in my option was going to be to use my grow tent as a drying room since all the plants would be done around the same time....and i could control the environment inside my grow tent so that i would be optimal for drying process...
Now that im almost 6 weeks in...i've realized that my plants are going to be ready for drying at different times...up to maybe 1 or 2 weeks difference.
So now i have to come up with a place to dry my buds....and i have to be able to contain smell....and control the environment.
So heres my design....
I want to build a box 3' x 2.5' x4' are the dimensions.
Built out of plywood and 2 x 4's for support
....basically ill create a box with a 6in electric fan installed on the end....used as a fresh air intake and providing air circulation as it pushes air thru the box....then on the opposite side will another 6in electric fan installed and used as an extraction fan....now this extraction fan will be connected to duct which will outlet the air into my grow tent thru the bottom inlet port......
...the exhaust i use for my grow tent will be enough to handle the air coming from this smaller 'drying box' without any issues....
...this box will be 4ft tall...in order to allow the plants enough room to hang...and be able to insert a humidifier or a small space heater at the bottom in order to control temps and humidity.
Im going to make this box as air tight as possible....and the lid will be removable...and at the top will be lengths of wire running parallel both ways in order to maximize the amount that can be dried in this box.
This is the only idea ive been able to come up with....without spending a lot more money.
Will this design work????.....
any ideas to add to it or suggestions will be great. thanks cant wait to here some input on this idea.
Questionable option #2...
Would i be able to still use my tent to dry my buds if a few plants werent ready for another week or 2.
In other words i would have buds hanging drying at the top and plants under the lights at the bottom of my grow tent....is this an option?
