I feel like if you hang dry until the stems snap for 3-4 days they dries too quickly and you did not have enough time to convert chloro to sugars. I hangdry until about 30% moisture (stems will still bend a bit) then clip buds into open 1 gallon jars about half way full. Then lay the jars on their sides (still open) and roll them 1/4 turn every few hours. This packs the buds up nicely from the weight of them lying on each other.. Once you are a decent bud density from drying and compaction layout out on newspaper ona table until they are properly dry (spongy dry, not brittle turn to dust dry.)
the longer you draw out the drying process the sweeter the buds will smoke. Just dont take too long as you may risk mold. just keep air around them but dont blow air steadily across them. Sounds complicated just have to get the feel for it.
