Yes I have these pics. All of the big leaves are off and unfortunately before I found this forum someone told me not to leave big leaves on too long it would make it harsh so I trimmed leaves way too early and too many I was also told to Remove any leaf that kept light from the bud. That’s why I’m asking so many questions on 2nd grow. I’ll take what I get and do better next time. 1st pic an indica makes me sick to think how many good leaves off her. ![15574546582991430397686](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/7/4/74644e69bb212bbde3e829a490783cf978e70927.jpeg) ---

How long did u flower them? Also for a trim I would let them hang for 2 days intact then u can decide if u wanna trim them more or just wait to trim when dry. Personally I would trim them up when they are dry with those ones but with some like this ![20190214_123032](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/6/3/63f52ed45bdab77e9e06b7474513ec7fa43bc2ee.jpeg) I trimmed some more then others depending on size. ---

I don’t think I flowered long enough the pistal were 80 % dark but trichomes were milky with still some clear. They flowered for 9 weeks. I think I just wanted to finish these so I could start 2nd grow the right way but didn’t want to just waste it all. Hope I get a few nice relaxed evenings and or days from them ---

This is what I’m hoping for this grow. Do you grow in tent? With SCROG method? What type nutrients did you use during flowering? I may have already asked that. ---

> [@Amazon66](#): > > I trimmed leaves way too early and too many I was also told to Remove any leaf that kept light from the bud There are several opinions on this. Take them off, or leave them. I’m not certain there’s a definitive answer. So don’t feel like you made a mistake. From what I see it looks like you may have harvested too early. Cannabis can put on a lot of weight in the last few weeks. Regardless, you’ll get some bud, and you’ll learn a few lessons. Every grow teaches us. 👍 ---

Mine are hanging in dark walk in closet. What humidity should be in there? I’m keeping door open but no lights shine in and sometimes run a fan to circulate the air for alittle while, is that necessary? ---

I go a bit higher, around 60%, with plenty of air movement. Since I trim so close I find that most of my buds are ready to jar with 4-5 days. It’s still a work in progress to find that sweet spot. [Previous page](https://ilgmforum.com/t/how-much-wet-trimming-do-you-do/30798.md?page=1)
