anti dessicant while drying?

I have some stuff i just cut up, it smells so strong I have to keep it in a sealed box for now. my question is there anything I could put into yhe box to absorb moisture so I dont get mold ? Is there any other tips on mold prevention while drying in a box?

Don't use an anti desiccant. That will cause mold. Use a desiccant.

You can also find desiccant packs that come with electronics and stuff. I work in a component warehouse, so I have tubs of desiccants.
