    It depends. I don’t really trim at all. I pull the fan leaves, dry, cure, and leave anything that one would normally dry trim on the bud to protect the trichomes. I trim off the sugar leaves if I smoke it, or leave them if I am processing it for hash.

    I would wet trim if your buds are super chonky (Fat). It will decrease the chance of mold. I’d also wet trim if RH is an issue where you are drying.

    I used to dry trim only for bag appeal. I give everything away now. People don’t get the buds if they complain about the (lack of) trim.

    @your_mailman_grows_, where in NY? I am in Northern VT, right across the lake. In Essex, about 15 min from Burlington.

    Experiment on a plant or two, not an entire run. You don’t want to try something new and ruin a run if it doesn’t work out the way you were hoping for. Watering more often with less water is a crop-steering technique used by commercial grows for better yields.

    Looks good. Great start. You’re in a great place to get great skate and get advice if needed.

    I harvest right before the lights on or in the dark outside. Depending on what I have going on, they can go up to 24 hours in the dark inside. I do it just so the plant doesn’t start producing chlorophyll.
