It’s really hard to get a good look at trichs from that pic. But I didn’t see any amber, and there still appears to be areas of clear, so maybe a bit longer than a few days. Majority of pistils have/are turning though, so check them regularly. You’re looking for as many of the clear trichs to go cloudy without getting to much amber. ---

Nice agree with @dbrn32 in this one I try to get around 20% amber myself befitting i harvest But daily checks are a good idea once they start changing over ---

Best to dry in a dark place with decent ventilation and a lil humidity Light does break down the buds a lil bit and too much light and heat exposure can and will effect the quality and even flavor profile ---

Im with @Growit Dark would be best I assume it due to smell why your wanting to hang it in the grow room ---

You can use a paper bag to Help quick dry that would also block light @CannabisLover89 The paper will help draw the moisture out of the core of your sample buds Depending on size of bud it will dry faster as well ---

I agree, best to dry in dark. Paper bag seems to be used by many here with good results. If you’re looking to take it a step further, I’ve seen some pretty cool Rubbermaid container drying boxes built online. Shouldn’t be hard to find some examples with a google search. ---

Yes sir if you have more than one bud try to keep it one single layer and check it every 8-12 hours depending on size and amount They can sry fast so just keep checking till it dry enough for your needs ---
