Hanging is the best way to dry in my opinion. They dry evenly and do not suffer any damage that can be caused when laying buds on nets, like knocking trichomes off. Buds that are dried lying down also come out flattened/squashed on one side with moisture build up to, which can lead to mould. Turning the buds to lessen the flattening just knocks even more trichomes off. Buds that are hung to dry also maintain their shape, appear larger and as the leaves droop down and fold around the buds like a wrapper, they help prevent trichomes being rubbed/knocked off once the buds are dry. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Humidity in the room used sits between 50% and 54% and temps 20 and 24 c with air coming in from outside so this ok ?

Okay branches will take about 3 days longer although a longer dry is better ... I've found that hanging branches in very big cardboard boxes gives me good results as the humidity stays even On the net will squash your flower flat on one side due to the moisture and the force of gravity also if you don't have control over humidity if its lower than 50% in the room it's gonna dry out pretty quickly

I would suggest drying racks.
