Has anybody ever tried trimming off all the sugar leaves before drying but leaving most of the bigger fan leaves on the bud? That way all the tough trim work is already done while its easy but you still have your fan leaves on there to protect the buds and slow down the drying process. Then before curing you could just go thru and pick off all the fan leaves without damaging the trichs..... Ive never tried it just came to me while I was reading everybodys different drying/curing techniques in this thread, it seems like you might be able ta get the best of both worlds this way
What yall think? Anybody ever tried it????

thats a good fucking idea. i still got one more purple kush clone that im stretchin for another few days. i think i'll trim this way chief! i noticed that the weed i trimmed after dried was alot more crystally however it was soooooooo much harder to manicure.

Lemme know how it goes Grape foreal, PM me or just post here. We might be on ta somethin here! Im hopin that would slow down the drying process and give all that clorophyll a chance ta break down so you dont end up with that grass hay smell ya know. Ive had that problem before and the bud still smokes great and smells really good when you break it up but I want my shit ta stank when you crack that jar! I want it ta stank through the jar! Im pretty sure drying the buds too fast is what causes that and hopefully this will help and itll protect those frosty nugs. But def lemme know how that works out, I got some outdoor chocolopes and satoris that are comin down at the end of this month and thats gonna be the new drying technique if it works!

for sure chief, i plann on choppping my last baby in a week or so. i'l keep ya posted, i love me some SLOW dried dank tho, everything about it really is better from the crystals to the stank stank. yo what state you from if you dont mind me askin lol?

The heart of America my man, the swing state....

nice bro, i always like knowing where my homies im talkin too are from. thats whats cool bout this site.

Yeah its definitely not as herb friendly as Cali but at least I aint got C.A.M.P. ta worry about! But possession of less than 100 g is only a payout ticket and you might even get away without a swift ass whippin if you dont talk shit! But Id much rather have my own script and license ta grow 99 plants! Im bout ta be choppin the first half of my girls in a couple days and tryin out this new trimmin technique, hows that purple lookin so far anyway man?
