Depends on my drying environment. My indoor I will keep them as is because I have a temp/humidity regulated drying tent that I can keep at optimal conditions. And I like the look of big buds!!!! But my outdoor I hang in my shed which has temp/humidity fluctuations and is more prone to bud rot so I break them down or I will bend each node out. Happy Growing

For best results , cut after drying. Dry 7-14 days it depends on humidity. The faster the drying process the more taste you loose buddy ๐Ÿ˜Ž Nice grow ๐Ÿ‘

For a slow dry I usually leave everything on and hang the whole plant, if I don't do it this way and seperate the buds I find they dry out way to fast. All depends on your conditions your drying in. If you have a high Rh in your dry area then you may be best removing the buds.

Totaly depends on how you want to dry them. You can: 1. hang them upside down on a dread, then you can leave it intact. 2. Put the buds in a dry net, then you should cut at least half off from bottom to upper branch. I like to keep the ''upper bud'' intact because it has grown compacter to each other. What i like to do myself in hang them up for like 3-6 days depending on how fast they dry, then put them in a net for another 4-7 days depending on how fast it dries in there. Before putting it in the net i cut all the buds off my branches and if i have like airy big buds that didnt grow to each other, i cut them off as well. Because when it is dry, thoose ''big'' buds are just smaller buds on a branch lol. Keep in mind that big buds don't dry as fast as smaller ones. You really don't want to have super dry small buds and moist big buds. Good luck :)
