HARVESTING is killing me

Did you harvest right after that pic?
If so it would've weighed more if you let it finish> many white hairs + unswollen calyx still!

I've had some buds weigh ~70g but not super potent bud (critical mass).

Long colas weigh more because of the large stem in the center> the main stem could weigh 2-3g alone!
I prefer softball buds instead of baseball bats! Less chance of mold + more even dry.

8 per hour is a good pay comparing i spent 4 months working with my females
now and in 2 months i need no one cuz i am spending 300 and for sure i will buy the MAGIC TRIMMER just watch it

i watched that, no faster than scissors in my opinion, its basically bitch snips.

and 8 per hour is fucking pathetic, notice everyone in here saying yeah i pay my trimmer(s) 20 an hour!
thats pretty much going rate... you're just a real cheap prick it sounds like :)

I owned one when I did a 99 plant harvest. Now I am smaller scale on my own. I can trim 1.5 lbs 12 hours by myself. I had the electric trimpro it retailed for 1200$ and I resold it for only 600$ ... someone got a deal.. bud trader is awesome just watch for rippers.

And you were not 'working' with your females. watching grass grow is not a fucking job people, I don't care how many plants you have. I have met growers with 85 acres of Cherry Trees and they have a fucking day job

we bought and used the trim pro for 1 crop.... sure we trimmed our entire crop of 70 plants (15 lbs) in a day...but all/any of these trimmers knock off a lot of crystals.....might as well run the dry smoke through a keif tumbler too before selling... freakin rip offs

then theres the process of drying....insted of hangin, stayin fluffy....it compresses the buds or leaves them flat on one side when using screens or nets to dry on....our sales of Pre98 fell and the price dropped from 3000 a Q to 2600 because of bag appeal

Sold that trimmer real quick....nothing replaces a good old hand job:)

Ya, we scrapped off a golden ball of the purest finger hash on earth right off of the steel grate. It was a 7 gram ball of blonde hash. never been so high from it but it probably belonged on the buds

If you're super lazy you can dry out all the plants and then make hash out of them. No trimming really necessary. Otherwise, usually what gets me through it is how much it's going to not cost me to buy everything I trim.
 
we pay $20 an hour for good trimmers around here, as well as feeding them lunch and getting them blazed.

$8 an hour is a wage for an incompetent burger king employee, not someone who's putting in the tedious work of manicuring sinsemilla.
EXACTLY .. PEOPLe
the cheap fucks who pay 8 bucks an hour should be slapped.. haha.. maybe ive seen ur bud.. the bud that's LEAFY AS FUCK cause ur trimmers got paid 8 bucks an hour so they said fuck u . I trim fast and amazing quality everytime.. last time I trimmed for some1 other then myself.. I was paid in buds as I prefer .. and I was givin a QP for trimming 3 pounds.. the difference is.. selling ur weed for 200 oz.. or 300 oz in my area.. literally good trimmed grown herb goes for big money.. leafy shit of the exact same bud goes for LESS. it don't matter if its the same bud.. people can smell the difference.. taste the difference and see the difference with good buds and perfectly manicured buds.

I laugh inside when I see those buds with pieces of leaves sticking out. I know you CAN smoke sugar leaves, but I don't they get made into edibles, or oil!
