Does not always weigh the same.. it depends on how you trim, if your bud is covered in tricomes to the tip of the sugar leaves.. you may not want to trim all them off as you would other buds not so frosty.
Sometimes you see dank ass bud with a lot of sugar leaves folded over it because it is covered in trichomes.. if that bud had been trimmed hardcore from the get go @ harvest.. it would not have the same look or *weight.
Different types of trimming for diff buds, also depends on the amount of trichomes, more trichomes, more leaf you will see ppl leaving on the buds. If it is an average ass joe plant or ppl make hash.. they may choose to simply cut low on the buds regardless.
Depends for me. Some I trim low, some I leave tricomes caked sugar leaves to fold over & give it that unique look of dank.

Always trim and manicure wet, so that your material isn't brittle and dry and you have alot of tric's fall off... You can manipulate the stems soooo much easier and see what's goin' on sooo much better if you trim when wet... And, no the only "weight" you will lose is "weight" that you would lose anyways if you waited, but like I say enough lost tric's not only would lessen the overall weight, but also the potency, so wet, man, wet... Idk anyone who woould wait, unless they just didn't know or something... But, we all had to have started somewhere... I've never used or liked the automatic trimmers, although I'm sure if I were growin' 20 lbs, I'd appreciate one, but I find a hand's on approach to be just what the Dr ordered in most situations in life, incl trimming and manicuring... I don't much care for real leafy buds, as I'd rather see that go into my ganja butter and hash-making pile...

The argument for drying with the leaves on is to slow the drying process down. This is supposed to allow for a better breakdown of chlorophyll and other substances in the plant and prevent the hay smell you can get if you dry too fast. I've recently began experimenting with this method because I had some buds that had this hay smell that wouldn't go away, even after curing for a couple months. Now I just remove all large fan leaves and any leaves without trichs before hanging. It extends drying time by 2-3 days and makes trimming a little harder but no more hay smell.

Yep, was waiting for someone to chime in on this. The other side of things...
Longer dry is GOOD for cure. GOOD.
