Look I am not an elderly Bolvian woman who wants to trim bud 15 hours a day, Toms Tumble Trimmer1900 is $999.

I saw a nylon shaking bag that is about $399 but I forget the name of the web site. Look I want eazy pezy. The less work the better .None of this hippy trimming slavery shit.

Greenbroz trimmer does well.. requires a lot of cleaning up of buds tho. With that said, I can trim 2-5 Lbs a day with it by myself including clean up and it's damn near hand quality trimmed. The cylinder wet trimmers would automate it completely with no effort on your part. Bud quality will suffer tho

I guess if you don't mind shaking the trichs off the buds then it's great. If the customer can tell the difference then he will just have to pay more for the hand trimmed stuff.

The greenbroz trimmer doesnt.. Only one I've seen that doesn't. The only damage I've had it do to buds is sort of take the top part of the cola off.. hard to explain. The biggest downfall to it is you do loose a little bit of weight vs hand trimmed and it will loose quality on looser buds. Overall I'd say If outdoor and harvesting 60 pounds or less then stick with hand trimming.. and indoors if harvesting 20 pounds or less each cycle, then stick with hand trimming.. anything over that, I'd consider a trimmer, the greenbroz in particular.

Are you still using the greenbroz? I am looking to upgrade from hand trimming. Right now it takes about 7 hours to trim a pound. With 15-20 every 1.5 months and working 40-50 hours a day regular job I am unable to keep up to the task

Grow quality over quantity. Take some cues from the black market era that most have no apparent memory of. Then you'll have time to trim. Besides, if it's indoor, and you're growing any cross from the past decade, what's to trim? Or spray it with gum remover and rake across 1/2" mesh if youre all about quantity.

It works ok. Run 1/2 lb at a time and remove the brush. It cakes with hash constantly so each batch needs a scraping with a putty knife to clean. You need to stand over it and manipulate the buds as it runs making sure it doesn't bunch up.

If you don't operate like this you will turns all your buds to smalls. Which was the biggest issue for me. It sure beats hand trimming 100 percent now we finish about 5-10% by hand after running the greenbroz for 10 minute trim cycles
