The cure is goin well. The closed shed will lower RH with very little sun. But it is very slow and that does invite milldew. I think the fans help.

I pulled the landscape cloth from the wrapper patch that has the Frenching problem. The staples were very hard to pull out in some areas so I definately have some serious soil compaction from the frequent rains and the high clay content of the soil. This makes the drainage problem worse, so I did the only thing I can control and I eliminated the moisture being held in by the fabric.

80% chance of rain today with the next ten days being 40-60%. I think they just threw in some forty percents every now and then to keep hope alive. I'm not falling for it this time. :p

And the exhaust of those wonderful Mopars can be "flued" through a small room to provide heat for tobacco curing.:cool:
