how to slow down the drying process.. Buds are dryin to quick

So i have heard the general amount of time to hang your buds is about 5-7 days but i can't control temp in my closet which is 75-80 and mine are drying out in 2-3 days.

there is a small fan circulating air but not directly on the buds.

I've read that a short drying time will make your buds have more clorofil and not taste nearly as good.

Any tips on how to slow down the drying to would be much appreciated.

thanks RIU

Turn off the fan and add some humidity.
they dry out from the outside in. If you keep a bit higher humidity in there it will take longer. Another thing you can do is once they seem done put the buds in paper bags for a few days, this slows down the drying process on the outside and lets the moisture inside even out.

Nope, you are wrong about that. They looked and felt dry after such a short amount of time but there is still moisture in them.
By putting them in paper bags you slow down the drying process. this allows the moisture inside to transfer to the outside and dry at the same time.
Putting them in jars does the same thing but if you don't air them out for a couple days you could end up with buds that smell like lawn clippings.
