Thanks guys helped me out to if the ladies are drying too fast just start curing them I figured it doesn't really matter how long you hang
Drying/curing is a chemical process that requires time to work. It should take at least 7 days to hang dry. Curing is optional but results in more potent, smoother burning, and fully flavored bud. Even just a couple weeks in jars is long enough to be cured well enough to enjoy IMO.
Most of the problems you are having (like that plant-ish smell and white pistils) come from harvesting too early: do not count off the days from flip to guesstimate a harvest window instead count weeks. Allow a week or so for transition to bloom phase & then start your count when white pistils are evident as day #one. Plan to give your plants a minimum of 10 or 11 weeks or longer before chopping.
The pistils first need to be almost totally orange and then will begin to recede back into the bud; the buds will then swell a bit and look almost like weed you would get in a bag. It's not ready to cut before it looks this way; never go by the seed sellers recommended flowering time. Go by physically looking at the color of the actual trichome heads with a scope at first if you need to so you have an idea what "done" looks like. They go from clear to cloudy to amber but not all at the same time. When you see mostly cloudy with a few amber heads here and there it's ready to pick when you are but even then you should take your time or even wait a few days longer to cut the plant if you can.
Some simple tricks to achieve top shelf quality dankness include:
1) wait to trim the sugar leaves until buds are dry. Trim over sifting screens or a glass window pane to collect any trichomes that may fall during handling.
2) Stems must "snap" before it is ready to go into jars. If the stem bends over without an audible snap it's not done hang drying yet. It should take 7-10 days to achieve desired "snappiness. Smaller diameter stems dry faster than thicker stems do but as long as it snaps it should be ok to jar.
3) Keep the plant as whole as possible when you chop it. Try to do just one single cut at the base of the plants if you can. Cutting the plant all into pieces speeds up hanging time which is the opposite of what you want.
5) Have no air circulation whatsoever in fact you should hang dry inside an enclosure that remains relatively stagnant while allowinc passive air exchange like in a grow tent or similar stucture. I hang dry inside an empty old stereo rack with shelving removed and a piece of thick black plastic sheeting tented over if. Works great.
6) Use your nose. A hay smell inside the jar indicates mold is present & the bud was jarred too wet. Open up the jars for like 10 mins and get a good whiff everyday. If you get a hay- like barn smell immediately dump out the jar and let it dry totally.
7) Learn to make hash or edibles from the loose lower nuggets. Sometimes only the top cola buds are worth hanging & curing to perfection plus concentrates or cannabutter will sustain you in hard times while you wait for your bud to dry
