Hello AFN Family thats right under $40 only 4 items and 5 steps to complete! I had an idea to make my own dry tent a couple months ago and I wanted to share how I was able to achieve this using under $40. I had been struggling with flat buds using the paper bag method and wanted to experiment with hang drying but was worried about not having a fully sanitized room to have my bud dry in the open at potential risk to pest or stray pet hairs, so I started looking into smaller tents to do my drying in and didn’t want to spend $70-100 so I decided to make my own that would work but also not brake the bank. Here are the materials needed.

Infant Play Tent- $25

(I have a different tent that was $25 when I bought it, now that its warming up the one I have is over $40)

Safety Pins- $3

String- $6 (you can find it cheaper in places)

Clothes Pins- $5

Step 1: Put together the tent

Step 2: Line the safety pins on both sides of the tent how ever many rows you want to have. I have 3 rows top to bottom and about 5 rows deep. (Make sure you rows have enough space between them so the buds don’t touch)

Step 3: connect the strings to the bottom loops of the safety pins creating rows of sting to hang your buds on.

Step 4: attach your buds to the clothes pins and let hang.
Step 5: Relax and Enjoy knowing that your buds will come out looking perfect and be clear of any debris. And it only cost $40 to make! Pics of my DIY Dry Tent
