    Using fishing line in your drying room

    How do you use fishing line in your dry room/tent? What kind of fishing line should I get? What strength? Say you want multiple rows, do you use 4 lines and secure to the end points? I’m concerned about drooping from the weight of the branches.

        fishing line is rated in lbs. do you have lbs of weed to hang? the wimpiest line will hold all the weed you can grow. try pulling a pc of 6lb test apart by hand, its tough as hell. you'll be fine

          Plain cotton string is all you need.
          Don't worry, be happy, grow sticky buds.

            I use coat hangers on string in my drying room.
            IMO, you can use just about anything - wire, string, fishing line, tape - never had one break under too much bud.

              I use 1/2" pvc cut to length to fit inside the width of the tent and hung with construction string from the top of the tent with a carabiner.

              If you want to use fishing line try monofilament in the 10-20 pound range or any weight rated braided fishing line, you will not be able to break the braided line, it has to be cut.

                Any kind of string you have laying around will work. If the buds tend to bunch up in the middle you can use a clip to pinch the stem and string together so it can't slide along the string.
