The SharkmouseFarms 5 Day Dry Method: Part 1- does cooler preserve better?!

60/60 has been treated like the gold standard for drying cannabis for years, but the actual preservation argument is a lot weaker than most growers assume. In this video I break down why drying at roughly 72–75°F for about five days can make more sense than holding flower at 60°F for 14 days. The issue is exposure time. Terpenes are still volatile at 60°F, oxidative chemistry is still occurring, and a 14-day dry keeps that flower in active drying conditions for roughly 336 hours compared with about 120 hours in my method. I also go through the published data from Ross & ElSohly and Challa showing measurable postharvest volatile loss over time, and why modest increases in drying temperature do not automatically translate into worse terpene retention. This is Part 1 of the Sharkmouse Farms drying series. Part 2: water dynamics, internal diffusion, and drying kinetics. #cannabis #cannabisgrowing #drying #terpenes #postharvest #growscience #sharkmousefarms
