Hey buddy, I appreciate that!

I got another herb question for ya, if you don't mind? I know you enjoy the herb and I can appreciate that. I can't wait to hopefully see the day when it's legalized not only in my state but everywhere. But the other day when you said that you like to break up the herb when packing a bowl versus using a grinder-Do you think that it's better that way or is it just personal preference? I ask because I read somewhere that when you break up the bud, it damages and/or removes a lot of the trichomes on the bud. These guys were even talking about certain grinders to stay away from due to the design of the grinding teeth, apparently certain designs can rob the precious little crystals and beautiful globes of magic also. Whether or not it makes much of a difference or not, I dunno. I was just wondering if you have heard that or if you've done it both ways and could tell any difference?
