Saving trim - wet or dry?

[Alys]

I have just taken the top colas off my plants and have collected the trim. I will add more trim in about 10 days when I crop the remainder. 

 

Should I dry this trim?

Can I store it in a lidded plastic container - wet or dry?

 

All guidance welcomed from this first time grower

Pop it in a tub in the freezer, what do you plan using it for? 

[Alys]

@growinggold  Thank you for popping by. Hoping to make a little bit of hash if I have enough trim! 
 

I’ll pop this container straight in the freezer then (no need to dry trim first?)

[growinggold]

Straight in the freezer, then you can straight into the buddle bags when you make your hash.

 

Have you got a set of bubble bags? The bubble bags guys 5 set is really good and cheap £30? The river site, I think.

 

loads YouTube vids to help. Also get couple of meguiars yellow buckets from Halfords they fit the bags perfect.

I always just freeze my trim fresh I mean it depends what ye gonna do wi it really afaik for hash dry trim will yield more but can lower quality (more plant matter) tho the dry sift boys show amazing results

I just left mine to dry in a tub and then cooked it into butter and got off my tits

If you are cooking with it dry it and then decarb before you use it, for bubble hash freeze the trim fresh then your bubble hash will have more flavour.

It's better to freeze wet trim if making bubble hash but not always possible if you leave the leaves on for drying

Or if washing with iso then dry it. It really depends on how you want to process.

My suggestion is bubble bags as already mentioned and freeze whilst fresh/wet.
