Don't trim, don't even pull the big fans if you can avoid it.
Used to think wet trimming was the way to go ... until I tried untrimmed bud vs same bud trimmed wet.
well the untrimmed bud is 10x smoother. Not trimming wet will slow your dry times down, that's your problem, and the herb will be better no question about that.
.... 10 times more better? no exaggeration there wot ....
lol, who knows what percentage better but to me there is a night and day difference between plants dried with all the material in tact vs plants dried when trimmed wet. assuming a controlled environment is involved.
that's all I was getting at.
and every strain is different. Some strains you can lap up no cure at all but even said strain dried slowly with all material on should taste and burn smoother, much smoother.
the high also settles down and becomes more user friendly after a proper cure. Now whether trimming wet or not affects this area I do not know. I imagine it might.
Also humidity levels should always be considered, in places of high humidity, here, often a bit of a wet trim can be in order to prevent mold.
When you trim wet, the pith leaks out of the vegetation and onto the buds which causes the smoke to be harsh.
Peace.
I'm telling you man, don't trim. If anything pull the big fans only.
My advice would be hang for 2 - 3 days untrimmed. Then pull only big fans off.
At this point I would put them in a covered cardboard box. Reason being, the air circulating around a hung plant is much greater than if it were in a box.

Nevil recommended to dry plants with the leaves on and that's what I do.
