You wanna dry your bud slow, so the chloraphyll breaks down and you don't get that grassy smelling and tasting weed. I hang for a few days till the outside is somewhat dry but the inside is moist and spongy then I put them in paper bags (keeps higher humidity so it takes longer to dry) and air them out once a day (still on large branches) until the stem almost snaps then I put them in jars and open them once or twice a day, then once a week, and then I'll seal em.
