I'm going with the paper bag method and want to hang them in my tent but it will be winter then and the tent is in my garage. So I was thinking of putting them in the house but does anyone know what the smell is like will it stink my house out? Hope someone can get back to me thanks

It will smell, not as bad as hanging but she will smell.
Only for 4 or 5 days though.
Put it in a room away from everyone, seal the room and plug an air freshener in.

yeah, I agree, they do cut down the smell, been using the brown bag drying method for yonks now. in and out of tents etc..
even tho bags do cut the smell right down, the smell will be the worst during the first few days when the buds really sweat, they sometimes can make the bags damp to the touch. This will increase the smell, so, if it happens,. just change them all into new bags and you'll be ok.
apart from that, yeah they are not way as bad as hang drying, that stinks and a tent/filter is a must.

ive never had mould since I started the bag method either ,,besides, jars and all that burping? pain in the arm. lol.
an old hippy from california told me that trick years ago, excepet he didnt use little bags, just used to hang his whole trimmed plant upside down in a massive brown bag, sort of crossing both methods. Hanging and baggin. Said he just used to reach in and snap a bit off whenever he fancied. lol. ok if you got a separate drying area tho,,,,
another friend of mine who comes from Pakistan said they just chuck it all onto the tin roofs, in 3 days, bingo,. I was curious what the Temps and RH were there, must be perfect. in all honesty I cant remember what the temps were but the RH was def 65% and I think that's when curing starts @ 65%, velly interesting stuff and havnt had the hay smoke either since doing it this way,. brown bags man, they got some weird properties, they ripen fruit really fast aswell. but don't let it go to the stage of being rotten, they dry out. plus sterile aswell, can use on wounds and make for good insulation on cold nights out on the road. if ya that unfortunate.
or newspaper. browns better tho not bleached.

5plants like that I am only allowed six due to medical needs so I grow them as big as possible,I require a large amount of potent bud due to multiple disabilities ,even though the say Oregon got some of the cheapest potent bud at the disperserys not cheap enough for a poor man like me .
