Chopping right now... need motivation

just smoked way too much in the middle of a chop.. now I have absolutely no motivation to finish this. I just chopped off a branch.. took one look at it and just gasped FUCK!

should I get the midnight oil churning and brew some coffee? What helps you guys cut down bud? I have to have good tunes, and apparently not get too high

smileys rule

I feel your pain. I started my harvest around 9pm thinking I'd be in bed by 1. I didn't get to sleep until 7am... just plug away. I made a pot of coffee and chased it with a red bull. Put on some Spotify playlists and smoke some scissor hash to calm the nerves lol.

I feel your pain, especially if alone.. it can be a real downer looking upon the seemingly endless pile of trim.. Makes you just want to get lazy w/ an automatic trimmer like fk it.

haha Ditto ^^^

When I trim I only smoke the scissor hash. Keeps me from smoking to much. Good tunes and don't force yourself to stay trimming. If your back hurts or your just flustered get up walk around go outside and have a cig. Do some thing for 15 min then go back to it. I've been doing it like that for awhile. And trust me I feel your pain. 18 hours of trimming it's hard for me to get up and do 18 more. Oh it also helps to only take a few branch down at a time. What you think you can trim in 1 hour. This helps give you your break and you don't feel so overwhelmed.

think of all the children muhahaha idk man it sucks yeah but its worth it music and scissor hash all the way

I guess im the only one but trimming is rewarding the buds look good you get hash off scissors and then the iso hash

I thought this the first time.....but it truly is a hassle. A fun one though....there are worse things to be doing....right?!?!??

Music music music is all I use, and I FELL YOU about smoking too much....then my eyes go kookoo and I can't see shit.....perhaps that is why I was just told my last herb was "too leafy" heheheh, oh well.

I just chopped most of the night. Made some coffee, ate an edible, put in a Top Gear DVD and went at it. I didn't really feel like doing it, but what needed to be done needed to be done. It's as simple as that.

well, I may be be the only one who trims sober. Maybe a beer or two, or a white russian, they dont drag me down as much as weed does.

When I work I like to be clearheaded anyways. Weed is for relaxing time.
thats probably why I am suprised when people say- "I trimmed for nine hours!" Ive taken 4 3ft bushes down and finished in about 2 hours. The denser the buds, easier to trim. Querkle sucked to do, so many fan leaves.....

How come it takes you guys so long to harvest...I can harvest 6 oz from a heavily trained plant in around an hour and a half...you guys must move really really slowly...?

I guess if you had more than one it would be hard...My scissor hand always gets tired before I am finished...but i just keep on clipping...

It takes me so long because I brake them down in layers. Fan leaves first that go in 1 bucket and then surgar trim in another. Also like to have it finish trimmed so I don't have to do it later. And with 15 4 ft plants giving about 4oz dry each it's a long prosses.

I feel your pain man people with one or two plants just dont know the pain of those of us who have to trim 10+ by yourself. It takes me almost a week to finish 25 alone.

do what u can and hang the rest.

Noob inquiry: what's the procedure for removing the hash off the scissors and smoking it?

Razorblade. Scrap all you can off. Roll that into a ball place on plate in window. Let it dry. Put scissors in shot glass of 91% iso. That will remove remaining hash. When all done pour shot glass in a square pirex pan. Let alcohol evaporate then use the razorblade to scrape up the iso hash. That's what I do.

Oooooh, good idea with the scissors. Ima do that in 10...errr 9 weeks and 3 days!

lol I have trim sessions where I provide cannabis, soft drinks, and music and I invite my MMJ patients over and they trim it all. I end up trimming like an ounce and then I sit at the computer DJ'ing music while they go to town on it. They just LOVE trimming the stuff. Not me. In the words of Bubbles "I like looking after them, watering them, talkin to them, but I friggin hate harvesting the things."
