Steam Dry:::the Best Quick Dry Method

comming from the pro of 'sampling buds' before harvest, i have found that the best way to quick dry the wet planty bud, is to steam dry it. get an ordinary microwaveable plastic container. put a dry piece of kitchen towel, maybe torn in half, on the bottom of the container, then chop a few buds to a smallish size so it dries out quicker, therfore keeping more un-evaporated thc in the spliff, and then place the buds on the paper towel. Next, wet two paper kitchen towels and dry them out so they are not dripping, but slightly wet. it helps if they are attached when wetting them! now poke a hole or two in the paper towels which you have placed over the buds, and put the lid about 3/4 the way on.
Put in the microwave and 'cook' for one minute.
take everything out and dry any moisture that will be in the container.
get the other, dry torn half of the paper towel and put the drier but still moist buds on it.
make sure the paper towels are still wet and do the same thing as many times as you need to until you are happy. steam dried bud actually tastes nice, smooth and gets you very stoned. you should try it.

It may well be the best way to quick dry but in my opinion all quick drying is bad and a total waste of bud and I have tried many methods including the "steam dry" way

Well Im sure you know that the microwaves put off by the microwave degradate your thc and break it down lowering the quality of the bud greatly so by doing this you made commercial grade buds.Not what Id do after a long successful grow almost as bad to do it in an oven. HAs to be under 100 degrees F to not cause thc loss and damge

Just toss on top of a ballast. A tin foil 'pot' can elevate it a bit to keep the bud temps down.

I've just tossed onto an AreoGarden. Seemed to work well (not instantly, but a few hours)

This destroys the trich but if you want to ruin your buds go ahead as anything over the 110 degree F mark breaks the trichs down

id think steam would moisten it. my quick dry technique is i put it in a cigar box over night and its smokeable by morning
 
wow some of the people on this website are ignorant. "microwaves" destroy thc... really? show me how you know this. you can't. yes temps above 100 degrade thc, but the temp has nothing to do with microwaves. Microwaves "basically melt THC?" shut the fuck up and stop talking out of your asses. and if you say something prove it.
stfu. i come here for real information not opinions stated as facts or idiots pretending to be know-it-alls.
 
I can personally say that i just tried this method and it works wait longer than 20 seconds though. I was not sure if i did ok since my crop is about to be chopped and i can say i am as high as the sky right now while typing this. So yes it works does it taste great no, ok but not great.....will it get you high yes!!!! 30 % power worked great. Also i checked my crhomes after every nuke at 100x just to make sure i was not poppin my balloons so to speak. Nuff said
