Where to hang?

What are some of the best places to hang your buds to dry? If not able to hang them, I heard someone mention paper bags? Is this possible, just throw em in paper bags? Put them in a cool place? I read up on water curing, not sure I really understand that. I'd much rather just do it the easy way.

The buds should be fluffy though, drying them out would just DRY them out obviously? I don't see how the buds would stay moist. I just wanna get the most out of them, you know - it would be kind of pointless to let em all shrivel up. I was looking at some of the pictures of the buds.

Some of you are really lucky, you seem to have gotten a good turn out. I know from about 8 weeks or so - you should have a sufficient amount of bud from a couple plants. The grass starts to change color and it's harder to hide, enless you are in the woods.

Just hang um. you can do it pretty much anywhere. it has to be dried to get rid of the chloraphill(yeah i can't spell) that is why you need to check the little peaces of leaf that are still on the buds and see when they are grey not green. A paper bag may work but i think it would take longer. I think the best place would just be in a closet unless you have a shit load of bud. and if you happen to over dry them put it in a plastic bag with a peace of fresh fruit for a couple hours.

the only place to hang buds to dry is in my workshop. I'll give you the address later. VV

I think you should hang them in a cool, dry, dark place.

you could hang em in my closet......i'll keep an eye on em while yer at work!!!

If its simple enough to find a box, and just tack stings going across the top, with opening on the sides, then that would be the best method if you dont have a designated space. Paper bags do work, but I've found its more of a downer taste.

Don't put in plastic bags. Moisture will build and then comes mold.

i have a system where i hang em in my flower room for ten days with lights off. i have my mother room and clone area so when done flowering i hang em in flowering room than take clones from mom, put clones in clone area than in ten days whn clones are rooted i take down buds that are hangin out in flower room move em to jars and move clones to flower room and start over

easiest way is to cut the plant trim the fan leaves off and then hang it upside down in a closet or room thats dark cool and dry. when they get dry and the stems are bendy but not wet you want to put them into jars or plastic food containers no shopping bags or trash bags. then what you want to do is let them get bring the moisture out of the core of the bud till the whole things are moist again. then leave the top off and let them get dry to the touch on the outsides of the buds again and then put them back in and repeat. the more times you do this the the more you will break down sugars and startches leaving you with good smelling and tasteing bud. the most common mistakes are fast drying and getting mold due to no fresh air in the jars so make sure you watch for those things and your good.

I agree with vicious.. his workshop works great if not mine will do just fine

yes....cool...dark....dry....works every time

im trying an experiment this time, i have brought one of those bamboo rice and vegetable cookers you see in asian restraunts. The pot has plenty of ventelation and is dark

10 days... wow i hung mine for 5 and they were ready for jars. your colas must have been hugeeeee

I took one of those wire "shelving" things you buy and put together, all metal and a oscillating fan's front guard. Hang big buds on the shelving and put popcorn buds in the mesh fan guard.
