One little bud is not enough to say. Plus give us some more info on your grow. Strain, light, soil/hydro, etc...

Ok mate so sunday night ill just chop and hang to dry in the same closet no lights jst small moving fan blowing air around. Until dry to the touch then cure in a jar? Whats your preference turbobuzz? How do you dry and cure. How lomg roughly does that take. Newbie mind!?

I would guess with the size, around 7 days hanging, then jar them up, keep them in a cool place, and open the jars for a few minutes every few hours for a few days until they're at the dry point you prefer. The goal is not to get mold. Sometimes after hanging I break them down into smaller nuts, and put them in a paper bag for a couple days before the jarring process.That's kind of how I do it.

When you cut are you going to hang the whole plant to dry or you going to trim it and cut multiple smaller branches to dry?
Only reason why i ask is that dont just hang the stuff with a certain amount of days in mind, like 7 as mentioned above, and forget about them. They could dry out too fast and kill the cure. Go read up on tips on what to do..
I trim and hang branches and theyre all in mason jars within 2-3 days at 65-80% and i run those numbers down accordingly, esp. getting the higher rH jars under 70 as fast as possible ...then I cure for a month or longer. Never had any probs. Just get yourself a hygrometer so you can throw them in the enclosed jars to monitor humidity.

I was planning on cutting into smaller branches and hang them seperatley in the closet on a couple string lines.leave some smaller sugar on leaves so its not bare bud!? And dries evenly? I have that hygrometer already mate so al keep that where it is. Jst keep the lights off for a couple days. Then into jars?my rh in the closet has been btween 49-55% through whole grow so will it be ok to keep them hangimg in there bud??

Agree. After looking at the plant again, it won't take 7 days. It would probably get to dry.

True.. as its simply a matter how much plant matter dries simultaneously altogether. Hopefully that makes sense.

All sounds good. If you have control over humidity id set it bare min 60 +/- a couple and then check them a couple times a day. Lighter buds, smaller stalks and such dry out quicker.. put stuff in jars as required..
