Hello Ladies and Gents,
I am a first timer and am second guessing myself alot when it comes to harvesting. My Trics are turning cloudy not that u can tell by these shitty pics. But take my word for it. I clipped off 1 branch and am drying it out. But I am thinking of letting the rest start to go amber. Another thing I need help with is drying, what is my best bet? I am on a low budget so I cant get fancy, Is a closet ok? Just hang them by kite string on a line? I kind of want to keep them out of site, then mason jar? let air out once a day? How long do I have to cure for?

yeah just let them hang & air dry , try to keep it dark in the drying room . and after about a week ,, the outsides of the buds will be crispy but the insides will still be somewhat moist , snap a stem & see if it snaps or just bends ,, i liek to start my cure right in between ,, u will put the nugs in mason jars , and make sure u open it within 1/2 a day after u close the jar ,,, feel the buds & if the outsides are really moist ,, dump them out on some paper & let sit for an hour or so ... if u forget to air out teh jar u can get mold , soo just be safe & pay attention to what ur doing ,, read up more in the harvest & curing section

looks pretty good.
basic drying is as follows:
hang buds to dry until stems make a snapping noise. usually four to seven days.
put in airtight jars. preferably glass, but tupperware will do.
open twice daily to rotate buds and air out for 15 minutes.
smoke when desired moisture content is reached.
keep curing the rest cause it really gets better with age!

never cure or store buds in plastic containers.
always use glass jars.
