Dry Trim
Dry trimming refers to the post-harvest processing method where cannabis flowers are trimmed after the plant material has dried, typically 7–14 days after cutting. This approach contrasts with wet trimming, which occurs immediately after harvest while plant material remains moist. Dry trimming preserves more trichome integrity during handling, though it requires more labor and storage space during the drying phase. The method affects final product appearance, potency preservation, and smoke characteristics. Lineage records and breeder notes frequently reference trimming methodology as a significant variable in phenotype expression and cannabinoid/terpene retention.

Breeders working with resin-heavy genetics or preservation-focused cultivars often document dry trimming protocols when standardizing phenotypes for consistency. This processing choice becomes part of strain documentation because it influences which visual and chemical markers appear in the finished product.
