Outdoor Drying

I am going to chop down a few of my plants soon and i was wondering if someone could give me some critism or input on the methods of drying i have brainstormed. Due to my landlord being a pain in the ass drying my bud in my apartment is not an option. I however have come up with 2 alternatives, The first being cutting vent holes in a rubber maid container on each end for air flow and hanging the buds across a fishing line inside the box and leaving this in a covered area outdoors (Roof and walls). The other option i have is to hang them in a shed/barn at my parents house and let them dry there. The buds will be in a dark area either way but i believe that outdoor they will have much air flow which will hopefully dry them quicker. I am very concerned of mold. Please let me know which method you think would work better or if you have a better suggestion please dont be shy to state it. Thanks in Advance

From what I've read, quicker is definitely not better. Search this site. There is lots of useful info on proper drying and curing. The popular opinion seems to be that speeding up the drying process will reduce the quality of your budz.

Pick one of your options that is the easiest for you. They both would work just fine.
As far as the dry time. Ya want it to take about 7 days. Then cure.
