how many leaves should i leave around the bud?

I have just harvested.. how many leaves that are covered in thc should be left around the bud?

Cut em all off... but save them for smoking or cooking with. Now you don't have to dig into the bud to get the leaf off... just cut the leaves where they meet the side of the buds. There are some good videos on youtube which will show you how to manicure your harvest. Just do a search for "manicure cannabis" or something like that.

You could do it that way... but I don't. It takes less time for them to dry. I just dry em up within a few days and smoke em... or put em in brownies.

Its very good because those leaves have lots of THC on them.

I take all my trimmings, let em dry, not crixpy, but dry. Then make hash out of em. Just a personal preference, can't stand smokin leaves.
