Hanging the branches on strings or wires inside a large cardboard box works well, keep them in a dry, not too warm part of the house, box closed to keep the light out, takes about a week or 10 days for the largest buds. You know thyre done when the stalks snap rathr than bend, they don't have to break apart, just kind of snap. The buds might seem crispy then, but if you put them in jars or bags overnight, the moisture in the inside of the buds spreads throughout, and you should have smokable weed. If it's too damp still, lay the buds out in between layers of newspaper for another day or two, and that should finish them off.
