Who else chops and trims wet?

[Apalchen]

I start out wet trimming but no way we can get it all done im a couple days,so the rest of it get trimmed dry. Everyone swears wet trimming ruins your bud, but I'd bet they couldn't tell a difference.

After I've wet trimmed and dried I might have to have a quick dry trim over a few buds but most will be fine as is.

OP asked a question and I gave the correct answer.

Typically, noobs wet trim. Fact.

Didnt mean to offend you there brah

I final trim after cure before sealing for storage. Not much needed. Pretty buds and good dry sift material in the trim bin.

I chopped off a small bud about 4 days ago quick dried in boiler cupboard for 3 days to test it, couldn't smoke the whole joint is was strong lol. I checked plant today not a single clear trichome so I chopped the main cola only. I'll leave the rest for a few more days as the top cola is always slightly ahead of the rest.

Hey if you are happy than that's all that matters. I would say if you are not finding any clear trichomes than you are not looking hard enough as there are always clear trichs since the plant keeps producing new ones. Hey, it's not important. There is no set perfect ripeness for everyone, it's a to each their own thing. Nice looking buds man.

Most people saying they wet trim do it because ‘its easier’.
Doesnt mean its right.

I am a believer in ‘do what works for you’.
But dont say its better or Ill call you on it.

I hate wet trimming. Been there done that with outdoor. Not easier at all imo with the scissors getting stickied up. Now I just cut all fan leaves at harvest and knock off the sugars when it's dry after 7-10 days at 60°/60% rh .

The only clear ones I could see was underneath the leaves the rest where milky cloudy small percentage amber. Obviously I didn't look at every single trichome haha but I spent a good 10 mins with loupe thinking should I shouldn't I. I went with should lol the rest will go longer

So what about wet trimming do you feel is wrong or worse?

Show me where I said it was better?

 

[MICHI-CAN]

I find it more difficult and time consuming. But I'll clean the shears and hands while putting in the hours rather than break all those dry heads off my buds abusing after dry.

You said "don't say it's better or ill call you on it". You also said most do it because it's easier and that doesn't make it right. Seems like you are implying it's not right and worse but perhaps I misunderstood. So did I misunderstand, are you saying it's equal? Just looking for your reasoning is all?

I think craigson is just one of those people that thinks his way is the right way and won't accept the possibility there's another way that's neither right or wrong just different

Im no less confused on what to do than I was an hour ago when I posted... lol. Maybe ill try doing half and half to see

Another infinite debate. Both work. Definitely try both. See what you prefer. Only means to your answer.

Just my 2 cents after a trim or 100. LOL.

I haven't wet trimmed in a long time. I cut the fan leaves off, cut her off at the base and hang the plant whole. About 14 days later I break it down into manageable buds and it goes into totes. Gets rotated and checked daily for about 7 more days. Then I do a final trim and into the jars they go. If I had a huge grow I may feel differently, but I really don't like the results I get from wet trimming.

What difference do you notice between wet and dry trimming? I've done both I just find wet easier and less time consuming plus it contributes to slightly quicker drying so I can get it jarred slightly sooner. You can always have a little dry trim after wet trimming if you want to polish up a few buds

I have been both wet and dry during trim.
