fuck trimming I hire trimmers i don't trim, that sounds a little asshole-ish but my time is worth more then 10 an hour, and people around here are starting to sell there trim from 500 to 700 a pound fucking rediculious.

Who the hell trims for 10 an hour? 200 per lb is usually what i get to trim. Work for 6 to 8 hours a day 5 days a week when i fly out to trim. Plus food lol guess thats why im seeing more and more "cheap" labor being used.

not sure i use to pay trimmers 15 to 20 an hour, when i was trimming for altitude organics I only made 10 worst job hated it sooooooooooo much. I was surrounded by rookies and hacks that would pick up a nug and freak out smell it and say they wish they could eat it.... to every fucking nug......

lol my avatar is on my business card.
i have been taking little containers, i am about to get 200 for free from a dispensary that is no longer using them, and gluing them to the back of my cards. I am about to have my graphic designer make me extract logo

i want to use this font for the Twitch in "Twitch Extracts" or "Twitch Xtracts" but i think i am going to go the professional looking route and do the "Twitch Extracts"

thoughts, opinions, criticism? I want to hear it all

OP if you want me to take this to the contributors thread I will i didn't mean to jack your thread, but it kind of applies I make quality shatter and wax in the CO area

10 bucks an hour isn't horrible. but still depends.. a good trimming crew is hard to find.. most leave so much leaf behind its not worth having someone else trim.. I got a buddy who I give a oz per lb he trims and hes fast and perfect at trimming.. so it works out for him.. we pay a oz of bud per pound.. or depends.. sometimes we give oz per pound.. sometimes we give oz and the trim from the nugs u did per pound.. so u can make bho..

but now that we make our own bho.. I been doing my trimming alone..

I don't know how you could possibly find people to trim for you at $10/hr. If you could then you probably still shouldn't because that's asking to get robbed or extorted, and if you pay them per weight they'll do a shitty trim job, so I will pay up to $25/hr. and only my closest friends will get that opportunity.
That trim will yield you at least 45 grams of concentrate which at wholesale price of $18 makes $800+. When a pound of trim was $150 every idiot in the game started making concentrates and growers were leaving a lot of money on the table. It makes economic sense for both parties at $500-700 per pound, and with so many extraction artists and the lack of trim I expect things to only get worse. Really its expected because there isn't much of a barrier to entry into the market. It's just a simple extraction and most people without chemistry knowledge can easily do it.

A friend of mine just called me from Lake Wood CO. She said that the local dispensary has nothing but BS wax. Throat burning & instant headache. She wants to know where she can find quality shatter up there in CO like us Texans do it down here. Any suggestions my friends up there?

umm i use the same trimmers that the dispensary uses, and they are paid 10 an hour and its taxed... mines tax free
i also rent a van from uhaul pick them up at walmart at 9 am and drive them to the house back the van up, un load in the garage and i have my trimming area in the garage, so they never see the plants or how big... i have been doing this for years and i am still around,

Also I am from Texas, you don't extort Texans
