Trimming, in the context of cannabis cultivation, refers to the process of removing excess foliage and unwanted plant material from harvested cannabis buds. It is an important step in preparing the harvested flowers for consumption or further processing.

The purpose of trimming is to improve the appearance, quality, and overall market value of the cannabis buds. Trimming involves selectively removing leaves, stems, and other non-flower parts of the plant that are less desirable or do not contain significant amounts of cannabinoids and terpenes.
