Your lack of patience in simply reading the harvesting/curing thread is disappointing, not to mention the SEARCH feature which works well in narrowing down results.
Hang the buds on some string or hangers, indoors. Keep the air moving in the room they're in, but do not directly put a fan or direct air on the plants. Make sure its as dark as possible.
When the plants that are hanging in there are surrounded in darkness, photosynthesis stops and the plant can start breaking down the chlorophyll and sugars that make weed harsh when it's smoked.
After the twigs become bendy but sorta crisp, take the buds down. There is no finite time when you have to take the buds down, because every strain, heck, every phenotype of a strain is different. Don't wait until the stems snap, or you'll over dry the bud and it'll smoke harshly and not have the taste that's possible for them.
That's where curing come in.
Put them in glass jars with a tight top, and burp (air out) twice a day for 20 minutes for the first week, then progressively less.
If you don't have jars,
use paper bags, or some dry cardboard.
Anything paper that you can partially seal, like a paper bag.
Make sure to occasionally take the buds out completely, so you move them around and promote more even drying.
