Drying and Curing step by step

Hey guys I was wondering what methods work best for people when it comes to drying and curing?? I currently lightly trim the plant when it's time to harvest and then hang the whole plant up to dry for about a week, or untill the stems snap. After that I trim the buds into nice nugs and put them into containers to cure. I "burp" the containers a few times a day at somewhat regular intervals. I do this until I feel the nugs are at a good moisture level.
I'd love to hear what methods other people use to produce flavorful nugs when it comes to drying and curing? Any feedback is appreciated

I do this....with one more added step. I hang until the outside of the buds are crispy but the stems still somewhat bendable. Then they go into plastic walmart bags(unclosed) and not too stacked for another week or two until the stems are completely dry. This slows the drying process a little more and I rarely have to burp....although I still do once a day for three days. then every other etc etc. Then humidor packs 62% in my jars. This gives me an extremely smooth and tasty smoke....almost like cream soda! Just the way ive always done it.
