i used to dry in a cupboard and i just put a little carbon filter and exhaust in there.. anythings good really. but being thats your first harvest, then here are some pointers i find to give me the best bud quality. make sure rh doesnt drop below 50 or gets above 60 (up to 58 preferably imo) and no fans pointing directly on flowers. i would keep some or all of the leaves as well. this way even when humidty drops you still get some grace for leaves turning crisp first, and not your buds.
you want a long slow gradual dry.. 5 to 10 days is good depending on buds, bigger, denser colas need more time..
nowadays, when i have the equipment to control rh, i like starting on 58, then gradualy decreasing to 50, which is trim day. i dont let them be more than a couple hours on 50%, its makes the buds too dry for me, but 2 hours is just perfect for quicker trimming.
enjoy your weed dude. congrats
