thats the best way to trim to tell you the truth,while the buds are fresh,trim em,i personally used tweezers to pull them off by the stem at the base,that way you save the integrity of the bud,and set the leaves aside in an open shoebox that way when THEY dry you could make hash,oil,etc while you wait for your buds to dry and cure

Trim away.
Just got done trimming a plant myself.
I didn't do a real clean trim, and it still
took me damn near 3 hours.
I may do a bit more trimming as she dries.It is easier to get at the leaf stems when still wet though.

Nice haul 1/2 lb. That wet weight?
Assuming so but let me know.
I hung 270g from the one i trimmed.
Hoping for 3 zips when dried and ready to cure.

I hang my buds in a closet on coat hangers.
Temps 70-74 40% humidity
Fan blowing air around the room
Buds hang behind the fan so air doesn't
hit em directly.
I'll dry most bigger buds for 5 days, then
trim off into smaller buds, and put em into mason jars.
The smaller buds i'll dry for 3 days then into jars.
I tend to jar before the buds are really dry. I never go by stems, just by the outside of the bud. Once thats dry i just
cut the buds off the stems, pop em into jars, and keep the lids on loose until they dry a bit more. Then i keep a tight lid on and open 1 or 2 times a day.
