Hello!
I have an autoflower that will be harvested in 2-5 days and it's had WPM for about a month. Fan leaf picking and spraying with a mix of hydrogen peroxide and water has kept it alive and well, although most of the sugar leaves have some visible WPM on them. No buds look affected. I will be budwashing after harvest with this method.
The thing is that this being my second grow, I really wanted to try dry trimming to see if it positively affects the overall quality of my first grow, which was kind of ruined after the wet trimming/curing I did (taste went completely away, joints went off constantly, harsh, etc..). Wet trimming being the most probable factor as I think it made them dry too quickly, so I was determined to dry trim to test and grow my knowledge before the WPM showed up.
Question is, is it OK to leave sugar leaves affected by WPM after the wash to then dry trim? I'm not sure if the wash if 100% effective in removing/incapacitating the WPM the sugar leaves have. Is it too big of a risk and maybe it's best to just wet trim again?
