		<description>Bob:
&quot;C or F&quot;? 
REALLY???
No science student-- or even a sci-fi fan-- could make such a mistake:
300 degrees Celsius would be 572 degrees Fahrenheit, and thanks to Ray Bradbury, we all know that the ignition point of paper is &quot;Fahreneit 451&quot;! 
So even if you DID have a pottery kiln which you sometimes used to heat up your TV dinners-- the instant you exposed your pot to those temps, it would burst into flames!  
Of course, that WOULD eliminate your mold problem...

But SPREAD THE NEWS, FOLKS:
I have discovered a better remedy than heat--
EXTREME COLD FROM A GAS DUSTER WILL ELIMINATE THE MOLD ON YOUR MARIJUANA!!!
That&#039;s right: one of those cans you clean your keyboard with! 
And it will not only kill the mold-- it will destroy the spores which are causing the odor!!! 
Best of all: when done properly, IT IS HARMLESS!

From Wikipedia:
Despite the name &quot;canned air,&quot; the cans actually contain gases that are much easier to compress into liquids, such as difluoroethane, trifluoroethane, or tetrafluoroethane. Hydrocarbons, like butane, were often used in the past, but their flammability forced manufacturers to use fluorocarbons....since gas dusters are one of the many inhalants that can be easily abused, many manufacturers have added a bittering agent to deter people from inhaling the product.

The gas comes out of the can at about 20 DEGREES BELOW ZERO (that’s Fahrenheit, Bob)-- and that blast of cold, dry air crystallizes the mold spores on contact.  Plus, the fluorocarbons kill any remaining mold hiding deeper between the buds.

Here&#039;s how I did it when I discovered mold on an LB I left sealed up too long:
I cut the moldy pot off the surface (saving it into a separate container), then busted up the rest of the chunks and placed them inside a large plastic coffee can. I then took my keyboard duster, inverted it and stuck the straw into a crack of the lid of the coffee can and gave a couple of one-second bursts.  Open the lid, rotate the can slightly, and repeat; shake can to increase exposure, and repeat entire process.
I then spread the entire mass into a porous container and let it air out overnight.
Next morning, ALL BUT THE FAINTEST TRACE OF MOLD ODOR WAS GONE!

LB saved...FOR ABOUT $5!!!</description>
