Hey guys.

I'm a new grower (2nd) and just wondering how I'm best off drying bigger buds. Do I cut them down into smaller parts or would it be OK just leaving as is. Feels bad cutting this down :(

I look at it from a buyers perspective.
Would I ever buy a bud so big it had several gram of stalk in it?

Also I wet trim so everything is broken down into individual buds for even drying rather than whole colas

Do you plan on smoking the whole bud at once??? I personally don't care how big they are, I break them down. At any one time, I'm only smoking a nugget, so I see no need to keep it huge, because it'll just get handled 25 times breaking buds off it to smoke.

That has many branches making up all that bud. Cut off each branch and break it down to the individual buds that it really is.

The less stems the better.

Yeah it is. The top bud is pretty chunky a lot chunkier than my last and just wanted to make sure I would get rot if I left it like that. But i suppose I should just cut it up. Its not really q but anyway. I just hate trimming and cutting lol

Yeah I wet trim too. And yeah you're right. I'll just cut it all down as much as possible. I'll end up with a better bud weight then also instead of having 10oz of stalk bulking up the yield lol

It's totally Ok to keep it large, nothing wrong with it. I personally wet trim, and chop everything down into individual buds.
(1) I'm only pulling out of the Jar what I'm smoking, (2) it was a horrible year in my area for PM and Bud Rot, so it made it much easier to find the rot when taking big buds down to size and finding what you couldn't see from the outside.
