I don't think that my nugs are COMPLETELY finished, but I would to test, and try out the bud. What would be a good, quick way of drying these nugs.

I take off small nugs or thin branches with small nugs and set in pie pan on top of t-5s or in toaster oven at 150.

I don't have either a T-5, nor a toaster over....
Would a regular over do at 100 or so?
Thanks for the 2quick post too +rep.

best method ive even have done in my experience is using a toaster. get a piece of aluminum foil form a little dent that can fit inside on the toaster's opening only like 1 inch and put your buds in the dent but dont cover them. put the toast on the lowest setting, turn it on for about 20 seconds and let the residual heat evaporate the water. turn every 30-45 seconds. rinse and repeat for 5-10 minutes and it will be dry but still perfectly moist without losing a lot of potency.
ps. dont leave the toaster on longer than 20 seconds or it might burn the bud and destroy potency

basically grab like a 4 inch by 8 inch rectangle of tin foil. create an indent that would actually lay inside the top of the toaster only like a half inch so you dont electrocute yourself. place the weed nugs in the indent. put your toaster on its lowest setting and allow it to heat up for like 15 seconds and shut it off. turn the buds every like 30 seconds or so to allow equal evaporation. i would turn the toaster on probably every minute. takes only like 5-10 minutes depending on bud size.

i mean it dosent take a rocket scientist to figure out how to dry the bud. your going to lose thc cuz of the way ur going to heat it up in a quick period of time but with that said just
put buds on foil turn oven on 100 maybe 150 but no higher n turn bud once every 30 sec or so n wen its dry to your smokibilty then ur good
hope i helped

same here not so much as for my second grow. i look more foward to that..
first grow is usually expermenting and you usually fuck up or dont do certain stuff for your plant to be to its fullest potential.
but second grow cuz of all the shit you learned from your first will be alot beter.
im on my first grow aswell......
Are you growing indoors or outdoors?

ok done this plenty and did plenty of experiments...
the best way i found is this....
break buds down a bit....
put them on a plate.
put them in an oven on about 60C and leave them in there for 2-5 minutes(i dont go over 4)
put it strait in the freezer(frost free only!!!)
leave for 30 seconds to a minute
and keep repeating utill they are dry.....
the shorter the time in the oven and freezer each time, the better the smoke will be...
also after you chop it up for a smoke, leave it for 5 hours or so and it will start to get some flavor....
BTW anyone who doesnt realize why im doing the thing with the freezer is because it take all the moisture away after the heat....
i have done countless tests, and this will get you the most stoned and will actually get some flavor after a little while....

Even though you dont have a T5 you can use the same thing with whatever lighting your using just make a foil bed somehow get it to lay on top of the light so your slow cooking it basically. The lower the heat the better but it will take a bit longer, the toaster oven is nice because its made to do the low temps, as others have mentioned just keep it under 150 for sure and dont nuke. I think this is the least harsh way, it sucks on your first grow looking at them babies and smelling them and having nothing to smoke

So you're trying to confirm your plants
are not done by cutting a sample to test.
What's the point?
