Best way to dry, if hanging them isn't an option?

For reasons I'd rather not get into, I'm unable to hang my weed to dry as usual, so I've been keeping the buds in a jar. They hung for 5 days at a friends house, and now I've had them in a jar for another 2 days. However, I'm worried it might not dry because of the lack of air flow. Anyone got any ideas on how I could properly dry them?

Thanks in advance!

PS: here's a pic in case anyone wants to see it

Put a Boveda Humidipak 8 gram Pak, it will control humidity up and down guarantee perfect cure. If you can't get any, keep burping and if they are much too moist, leave them out for awhile, keep doing this until you can burp less often. Keep an eye on them, don't want any moisture building up in there.
Good luck

Put them in paper bags for a few days.

Paper bags work great if they have already hung for five days. When harvest time is near, mon always ask for paper bags not plastic. You can find big huge paper bags in the garden section at Walmart, they are about three feet tall or so.

Mon likes to put everything in a paper bag for a few days after hang drying for about a week to make sure it doesn't dry out too fast til mon can get to it to trim.

Sometimes if there is too much to trim and mon is worried about it getting too dried in the paper bag, mon will just put the paper bag inside of a huge black plastic trash bag and seal it up and burp it every morning like it's in a jar until mon gets it trimmed and jarred.

welcome to RIU @konall012
i'd suggest you reduce the size of the some of the colas into more manageable nugs (like the one at the bottom) so that they do not mold on you since you can't pull them out. a five-day dry should be okay considering the conditions if you keep an eye on your jar(s) and burp them regularly as others have suggested.
