The argument for drying with the leaves on is to slow the drying process down. This is supposed to allow for a better breakdown of chlorophyll and other substances in the plant and prevent the hay smell you can get if you dry too fast. I've recently began experimenting with this method because I had some buds that had this hay smell that wouldn't go away, even after curing for a couple months. Now I just remove all large fan leaves and any leaves without trichs before hanging. It extends drying time by 2-3 days and makes trimming a little harder but no more hay smell.

Ditto.. Seems like people are stuck on looking for the easiest method of trimming without thinking of the best method to cure.. Cutting EVERYTHING OFF @ harvest is not Always Good, sometimes you should leave the tricome covered sugar leaves to prevent it from drying too fast. If you butch your bud completely @ harvest, sometimes it may not cure correctly if it dries to quickly

wet, if you try to dry before trimming it can take longer since theres more leaf matter to be dried.

You asked a question and he tried to give you an answer. Then you curse at him like he's an idiot. Keep acting like that and no one will help you on this forum. That "dude" has been here a long time and has helped a ton of people. All you had to do was say you realized that but you wanted to know how it actually worked. There was a much nicer way for you to reply.

Right on raw... I had a 60% humidity drying environment for my first dry and left everything on... it took almost two weeks to dry, but the buds were primo flavor and smell. I will always take the longer road for a better product if possible. Shit, they came out of the drying room already smelling like flowers and almost no hay smell. With curing it just got better and better.

On my next harvest I trimmed everything tight before drying because I had the time... results were obviously a lot prettier because they were so well manicured but the bud dried too fast and ended up tasting mediocre at best.

My next crop, I will chop all fan leaves up front but leave all sugar leaves. I don't care how many trichomes I knock off trimming, because I collect those too. (Trim over a kief box)

And on the upside, whatever leaves stay on the bud due to not being able to get in tight tend to taste and burn surprisingly well after a nice long dry and cure.

That's more like it. My comment was tongue in cheek, just trying to get the thread back on track.

I've seen some interesting DIY trimmers on youtube that looked decent... mostly spinners that move the bud around for you though... I think I like this "tabletop" style better because you have a lot more control. I wouldn't mind building one up myself. If anyone's got guides, post 'em!

That dude just wants to argue FAB. Nothing you can do about clowns like that. Eventually they will have so many enemies on this site they'll either learn; create a new profile; or go to another site.

better to trim wet or dry?
