you can trim before or after drying but it is 500x easier to trim before you dry plus it dosent take nearly as long to dry if you trim before keep on toking

I actually left some of my harvest un-trimmed The rest I trimmed before starting to dry. So we will see which one I like better.

I cut off all the fan leaves and non trich covered and toss 'em when chopping down. Then I'll closely, very closely, trim off all the itty-bitty trich covered leaves. and keep for hash (I save a LOT before doing the hash thing, and the closly trimming makes that bag fill faster) Then dry & cure

I've found less leaves = less grass smell and taste.

I think it depends on the strain too. The strain (Black Berry) I just got done curing has had some of the leaves left on the buds, and other buds with out. With the leaves on, it has a very holiday almost piny flavor too it, and is still smooth. The buds with out the leaves had less of that pine flavor, but the smoke was smoother. So it is about preference and about the strain you have.

Some strains I would say, yes for sure take the leaves off before you cut, others leave them on. Kinda like how each bottle of wine ripens differently, never the exact same.

I trim completely before I dry. I've never tried it any other way but it just seems harder to trim dry leaves and seems like you would lose a lot of trichomes.
