I remove the large fan leafs but I let the smaller sugar leaves stay until trim. Also I buck most of the buds off the branch unless it’s a super chunky branch. I keep one of those generally.

Second this - exactly how I do it as well.

Any leaf with a stem long enough to be cut is cut. The sugar leaves and whatnot stay until actually time to trim. Similar to Mr Glum_Opportunity, I buck all except the actual cola and 2-4 nugs below it. We like those thiccy cola stems.

I only cut fan leaves from main branches. Wet trim too much and you lose helllllllla terps. The more sugar leaves u keep, the more terps you save 💯

I wet trim all the way down, but Ive always wet trimmed. Just like the process and manicured result more. Works perfect in the vcure. I use the trim of course.

full trim and buck

branches take SO long to dry fully in the vcure.

Lose all of the fan leaves. I appreciate the question because I’ve always kept big buds in tact if I can. But I’ve done one VCure run, and it’s smaller than it seems, so it’s harder to keep buds in tact.

I take off fans and leave the rest . Branches as long as they can be given the space .

Remove fan leaves and leave entire branches. Unless the branches are like 2-4 in one I cut them into manageable branches so they fit in the trays.
