Imo its significantly easier to wet trim and you end up with better looking nugs. If you trim tight when wet, they usually dry to magazine cover worthy appearance. Dry trimming will usually crumble more than cut.
The only time I will dry trim is maybe during winter months. Leaving leaves through drying period seems to slow drying period a little.
Thanks guys. Going to wet trim today. Will send pics later this evening.
Just trimmed and weighed them. wet weight is 548 grams. Not sure what I’ll get dry. How much do u guys think I’ll have? Not the prettiest but they are frosty and from the samples I’ve tried, it’s really good lol just did a bud wash and hanging with a fan blowing on them before I put them in the tent to dry. For a first grow many mistakes were made but I’m hoping second grow goes better. Couldn’t do this without u guys. Thanks! @Bulldognuts @Dbpooper @GreenFlex @Nicky @Not2SureYet @Covertgrower @repins12 @OlyBoy98503 @CoyoteCody @MrPeat
Beautiful buds!!!
Very Nice! There’s alot of water and stems added onto that of course but still a very nice haul Brother!
You will get between 20% to 30% when its all said and done. Minus the big stems. 
Those buds look nice. 
Expect to dry weight to be ~20-30% of wet weight.
But regardless of the final number, your buds look great!
Another question for u guys lol would this work? Only have 1 bottom vent open so they don’t dry too fast, it’s a 2x2x4 tent. @dbrn32 @CoyoteCody @Not2SureYet @Bulldognuts @GreenFlex @Dbpooper @Enlightened420
What is temp and rh stabilize at?
I’ll let you know in about 10 mins. I just closed the tent. What should it be?
Currently at
RH 60
Temp 70
Not too bad, should get a slow dry there anyway. I try for 65f and 55% rh. Don’t always get it, but closer I get better I feel.
I think 70 f is the lowest I could get it to. Got the ac running 24/7 in the bedroom. I could put my small dehumidifier in the tent if I need to. How long should I aim to dry for?
When I harvested, it had been three days since they last had any water and their pots felt very light.
I wanted to keep the drying room (basement bathroom) at 65f and 60%. Here are my notes from 8/2 to 8/6. Humidity on the left, temp on the right.
After the buds were cut off, weighed, and jarred, the RH in all three jars were showing 67%. And I’ve been burping them since then (yesterday).
So that was after six days of drying.
I jar them when smaller stems aren’t pliable anymore. They don’t need to break, but shouldn’t spring back to normal when bent. Then I put small hygrometer in jars with buds and monitor rh from there.
You want slow dry if you can, like 7-10 days. But you rather jar them earlier than that instead of over drying. If you jar them too early its easy to just dump the jars out and let the buds breath. Over drying you are kinda stuck with what you have.
I see. Thank you. You dried for 6 days?
Thanks. I’ll be keeping an eye on them. I’d like to jar them early like you said. Don’t want to over dry
Yep. 6 days. On the 6th day the smaller branches would snap (without breaking). That’s when I thought they’d be ready.
I was happy with the 67% once they were in jars. When they get to ~63%, i’ll re-jar them with boveda packs.
They will lose up to 70% of their wet weight when dried and cured. You will still have some sweet bud you grew yourself regardless of the amount. Great job
