It’s whatever you like! I have done both! I I prefer to dry trim myself. To each their own and no judgement!!?
I tried dry trimming for the first time this last harvest and I will personally never do a wet trim again.
I used a gloved hand to pick the leaves off, and it was about twice as fast as a wet trim with fiskars.
@cannabissequoia tipped me off to this method and for me they are right… No more wet trim for me
Another nice bonus was that my plant took longer to dry thanks to the leaves being on which is great in my dry climate
Lots of ways to do it well! I like wet trim because my area is humid. A wet trim for me will take around 7+ days to dry for jars and by then it is very smokable. I’ve got to be careful hanging the whole plant because mold is a big worry taking over 2 weeks or more to dry.
Now when winter comes I switch up my game as the climate is drier. I leave some leaves on, some get cut. Basically I try and get the plant to take around 7 days to dry before cure, and that is totally dependent on my environment at the time. It’s good to be versatile in your approach.
Wahoo! A convert!
Just wait until you smoke the difference too!
