do u guys think that the harvested white widow buds at the bottom had too much untrimmed leaf? Looks like the person just let the fan leaves cover all the buds. I'm just deciding whether I should trim all my fan leaves while it is drying now or wait. ideas?

I like to wait. The extra leaves form a protective wrapping around the bud and help keep it intact. I don't pull those leaves off until I'm ready to smoke. It's like unwrapping a christmas present.

Also, while the plant is drying, it will continue to pull nutrients out of the fan leaves as it is still ripening.
