Trim/manicure buds while wet or dry? Which is better?

  1.    Hey guys... I'm getting ready for my second harvest,.. this time its Bubblegum. I trimmed my White Widow pretty much right after chop and my hand trimmers kept getting so gummed up so fast. So is there any down side to trimming/manicure buds after its dried out? Ive heard of people hanging plants upside down to dry. Is either method better than the other?
     
     

     
  2. The gum is good! I made some awesome finger hash yesterday.
     
    I think it's just a little more difficult but I've heard people like to leave the bigger leaves on so they protect the trichomes a little more while drying.
     
  3. Trimming wet will be much easier than dry.  If you don't have a large amount it will dry slower by trimming after the plant dries, but it is much more time consuming and harder to trim when the leaves dry up.  Wet or dry, the trimmers will gum up and have to be cleaned periodically as you trim.
