Re: How you trim your crops?

You should trim the leaves from the buds themselvs. Be careful how you hold them so you don't shed any crystals. Hold them by the stem and wear rubber gloves so you can collect any clystals that got away.

Re: How you trim your crops?

I would leave the bud leaves a little longer than the bud as to protect the thc glands from being knocked off.

Re: How you trim your crops?

By the way don't remove the bud leaves till the plant dries a little bit to further protect against trichome loss. Remove fan leaves the day you cut the plant down.

Re: How you trim your crops?

I would not remove any leaves (unless necessary) while the plant is still alive.

I would cut down the plant and remove the fan leaves right away. Then I would let the plant dry (upside down) before cutting the smaller leaves coming out of the bud.

This will all help protect the trichomes.
