Why is my bud drying funny?

This is my second grow.. Even with the first my bud is drying weird.. Like it doesn't look like other peoples buds. It looks thin and ... Weird.... I cut them down and hang them by the stem. In dark and not too dry of a place... What am I doing wrong? I don't get it.

what lights are u using? sometimes not enough light concentration will result in stringy, quick-drying buds. a fulller, dense bud will take 14 days or so to dry. sometimes if you don't wait long enough you will also get stringy buds.

They do shrink when they dry dude. If they are aiiry then they probably weren't as dense as you thought they were when you chopped them. That could be caused by lots of things such as harvesting early, insufficient lighting, strain etc....

Pictures before and after might help...
