Drying whole plant attached vs. Separating branches?

Royal Queen has sold me some pretty good genetics, but don't have enough grows to speak from actual experience (except that for me wet trim is much easier, but need alcohol handy for blades). Their website told me about at least one of their strains:

"This cannabis strain will require an 8 week flowering period, which is relatively short for a sativa dominant plant. Extra care and consideration should be taken to maximise the flavour of Fruit Spirit after harvesting. As always, our recommendation is to dry your plant for 7 days prior to trimming/clipping. Performing a dry trim will help to maintain this special flavour, which can be easily lost during the drying period."

I thinks their Fruit Spirit is a Blueberry x WW. Whatever. I'll try it and see.

I tried every variation for one reason or other. After a short cure, it all ended upbthe same buds as any other process I tried. (Always same strain from same mother) I mostly just chopped, trimmed, then hung individual branches as was most convenient.

ya that makes sense , though a slow cure is done by not chopping anything, this allows the moisture to leave slower then if you cut all these openings,

I know it’s a old ass post..It all depends on your patience for the time to dry..hang whole plant with right dry conditions allows plant to dry evenly vs individual branches drying at different times this due to different size branches and buds also could over dry
