Well, its been fun. I learned that the best way to cure (what I call browning before fermenting) is to do the "table shuffle" until almost completely yellow before hanging. Im in wa. state and that's what worked for me. The pile on the left of course dried green due to me hanging them green and fighting with humidifiers and heat. I GOT GOOD RESULTS FROM TABLE SHUFFLE. I guess the green pile is trash but it wasn't a total loss because they make good camouflage or maybe I can start a band called "Kentucky dreadlocks". Like a bad relationship where you storm into house after break up and scream, I just want my albums, I got my rubber bands back.
I guess im moving on to / or not, the kiln that I built ( humidifier, heater, tiny fan ) and run about 122 degrees and 70 RH for 4 weeks or until I don't smell pneumonia. ???? As usual, im open for advice.
