Check people's diaries , ussually there is plenty. People like MrCannuks are killing YouTube with best visual explanations. But : There is 2 ways of taking your girl down. 1. Wet trim. Either left on stalks and left to dry in dark with air moving out and lightly inside but not on the bud, or same thing, just some sort of racking and spreading trimmed buds on it. There is small path for water curing after wet trim, but I doubt you need to use it. Conditions, 60-65 Rh, dark, air movement, 18-20 cel temp Ussual duration 7-10 days. Then jars for curing for 4-12 weeks. 2. Dry trim, you hang most of the plant or big parts of it without triming sugar or fan leaves away. You still take biggest fan leaves for better air circulation, but leave enough for them to cover bud and create mini capsule for best drying and curing conditions Duration 14-20 days. Same conditions. Curing could be shorter 4-8 weeks. With dry trim you postpone Trim Jail's pain. I ussually go for wet. Each way is more of mix of personal preferences, time and placebo you convince yourself ;))) All the Best !

It was recommended to me to try Grove Bags. (This is my first grow.) If you're interested, they have a lot of details about drying and sweating - which I hadn't heard of before - and using their bags to cure. Their drying method would also work with jars, but the bags allow you to cure without burping. Good luck with your harvest - mine is today!
