Believe it or not it was pretty easy trimming. i was skeptical because that reason. If it was a tedious job it i wouldnt do it again. im just too busy mosy the time to spend on trimming this time of year. Unless we get alot of rain i get home at 11 at night and awake at 5am til thanksgiving here.

Definitely gonna try it one of these days. My issue is that I need to use my cabinet to dry when I hang to control temps and humidity. I am usually too anxious to get to my next grow to even wait a week! That is the main reason I use paper bags, plus I like the little quicker cure I get. Like FA, I cut off the fans before I hung though. I have read that the fans folding over the buds and drying creates an even more pungent smells. I was just worried about the trimming, but based on what Boog is saying, I might try!
Pungent smell as in good or bad? I did like the paper bag method. It just seemed to take the longest. i cant really say anything bad about any method ive done except when i wet trim and just hang dry it does taste like hay. how much do you put in one bag when drying at a time? Do you just line the bottom of the bag or add more than that?

Pungent as in great! They say the fan leave s protect the buds, so when it's remove s the bud shots are exposed to air for the first time and smell is enhanced.
I layer golf ball sized buds on the bottom of each bag. Just one layer per bag.
Lol ya its not the best part of growing haha
Tedious, like shucking peas from the garden or plucking the feathers off chickens.

This past grow I just put em in jars untrimmed and did a little at a time. Seemed to work fine. I used the little RH monitors from Amazon for like 10$ in the jars to watch the RH. I found myself rushing through it after 2-3 hours missing sugar leafs and cutting too much bud off lol.
Just put on some tunes and smile that it’s all yours! Fresh delicious sticky goodness!

That's a good idea. Jar 'em up and trim as I get to each jar. Less tedious that way.
