If you are talking about "Harvest time" drying, Cut and manicure your buds, hang them to dry on lines, (wire, string, nylon, your call), in a lowlight, non humid, 70/80 degrees, with light air movement, environment. Give them about 5/7 days to dry, but NOT "crack & crumble" dry, just dry to the touch and still pliable. Then to air tight cure jars. They must be "burped" daily to prevent possible molding. In about 2 weeks, you should have some good tasting buds. Good luck & good grow.......BB

Thank you that was the first real answer and not just a point to another thread.

thing is there is so much info on here and elsewhere on the net about drying and curing. It's silly to rehash the whole thing, and though burger boss's info is good info, it's no where near complete. You really would benefit more by doing forum and google searches on the topic and reading the wealth of information out there. There is a whole forum here dedicated to harvesting (this includes drying and curing). This is why people point you to other sources. You could write a whole book on the subject (and there are several already written), so it's not really something that can be fully addressed in a single thread.

Usually when people point you elsewhere it's because you are asking something that has a readily available answer with a little searching, and it's silly to 'reinvent the wheel' each time someone has the same question

Yes 7, gobbly is quite correct. What I gave you was the VERY bare essentials. Growing good stuff is hard enough, and sadly, so many folks manage to bring in a decent crop only to screw it over by not understanding the fine points of a good dry & cure. So get out there and dig, educate yourself. The more you know, the better your grow, is my core belief. Good luck & good grow.......BB

+rep boss
i felt like burger boss gave you solid info

like you said "actually help you with out pointing you to another thread or telling you to search for it"
(i hate to see people post that also, just help the person or dont post in the thread, i hate starting threads asking for help. and when i check my user control panel i see 3 posts, i excitedly check my thread only to see no help just posters telling me to look it up. mod's should pm these people and tell them to either help or not post. me myself i dont mind posting info hundreds of times )

the truth of the matter is there are many ways to dry buds some more complex then others
boss gave you 1 and that is the 1 most have used starting out and i still use to this day
hang the buds untill they dry - low humidity room is a +
then cure 'em in jars

flush plant by feeding plain water no nutes for last 2 wks (improves taste)
cut, trim, hang dry 5-7 days @ 40%-50% humidity
smoke
or
cure:
place in mason jars 3/4filled. sealed tight for 12hr in a dark place
open jar and take buds out and let dry for 30m to 1hr or untill dry to touch
replace in jars resealed in a dark place
repeat this for 2wks to a month or untill buds nolonger become wet in jar after 12hr
now smoke
or seal away for long term store

Thank you so much. and you are totally correct about the ass holes on this site.

wait so the whole plant hung up or should i trim it down to like 5 big buds?

Go down to the second part of the post it explains it all Temp, Suggestions on where to cut and how much etc etc Almost any question you can ask probably has already been asked and answered on here. Im not trying to be an ass but DAMN IT DO SOME RESEARCH

Great turtorial

i would:
cut off all the branches to equal manageable sizes
trim away all the big fans (dis card)
then trim up the buds (save these)
then hang on string or hangers

or cut away all the buds and place them on screens to dry (window screen)
