Great. giving them room to breath more helps allot. So how much trim did you end up with? I cant even guess. it was a jungle in their.

grab an off brand spin pro! Perfect rough trim for drying, go back in before jaring and trim a few fan leaf chunks that made it through.

I can bust down 8 zips in an hour just by myself.

Words of Wisdon HERE ^^^^^^^

Trimmed down trimming time from about a week of daily sessions to 1 night! I got the Clear Top Knockoff for Easy Viewing!

Cant imagine Harvesting without it Now!

Peace

Same! clear top and fatter/flat bottom. Not the straight half sphere one. Looks more like a sphere that got bent straight on the walls. 125 give or take and its been the most useful and time saving purchases of growing ive ever made.

And conveneintly stores all your trim in the huge ass bottom. Ive made good hash just from throwin some ISO in there after i scoop out all the trim.

Thats about the only downside is your fan leaves get mixed in with the good sugar leaves but if yorue really a stickler you can pick/trim em off ahead of time.

I usually have my friend chop all the buds off the branches while i sit there spinning. Like that were almost double the speed of just myself.

you loose allot of trics using a machine. i would just have another friend over to help. Ive always trimmed on a screen with glass under it. and there is always allot of fall of even by hand. or do you screen out the trimmings to gather the keef?

They all get collected in the bin below it. And i usually make BHO/ISO so its not a big deal if theyre attached to the plant or not. haha It all goes to the same place.

I feel like you loose just as much from trimmin with scissors and what i get on my hands. I just iso the screen it has and the blades and inside and get a nice chunk of what should have been finger/scissor hash.

I have heard people say that you loose alot of trichs, but I HONESTLY can NOT see a difference, I can NOT Feel (smoked/eaten) a difference. I ALSO cannot Trim as BEAUTIFUL as these come out either! If I was able to tell a difference... it would have to be Noticable enough to FORCE me back to Hand Trimming!

I DO PROMISE that NO TRICHS get hurt OR go to Waste!

While a trimmer would be nice, that's $100 that could be spent on recording equipment or a plane ticket!!! I'll use my scissors.

I honestly do try to absolutely minimize the amount of money I spend on pot. I already have all the top shelf pot I'd ever want to smoke, I don't see what else is needed.

Hey JIg!! going good up there buddy? :-) Don't forget to text me about exchanging. I could probably take a drive too.. I am easy man.

I am cheap about it too but probably spend a bit more on the weed hobby than you... Wife is tolerant but barely sometimes. LOL! Love these sunny days . :-)

It's nice and sunny up here. I've slept most of the day away though. It's been lush.

Mission accomplished on the drying. The first of the stuff I hung with fans removed went into jars yesterday. Having my wife smells the various jars... the stuff from last week that's been in a jar for a week (echo) she said smelled like weed. The stuff in jars less than 24 hours I had her smell and she looked away in disgust and said "That's overpowering". That is what we were going for. Thanks again everyone.

Always good to have an extra set of nostrils around!

Im def not cheap when it comes to growing. When I do accounting for my finances I add everything for bills up and mark the rest off for grow funds be it in the veggie garden or indoors :-D Thats why Im always broke lol but loving every bit of it!

As long as you know where you stand. I hear often that people are jealous of things I do, and I say it's all choices. It's nice to realize what you are choosing as you are choosing it.

And speaking of choosing, I am going to choose to trim dry from now on. I actually find it easier, so there. :)
