Title says it...

Done hand trimming, done! While it serves up the best quality, hand cramps, loss of time, blah blah...

I need to do something here, plus who minds some bubble or shatter? I Dont lol...

Now, Id like to get the trimpro but won't be possible this time.

$1500 ouch...

I have 64 sqft of scrog. Under 4 lights... Which would mean 36+ hours of straight trimming, not possible and I want it done...

Smallers buds tho, Dont seem like they would do well in a bowl..?

I'm guessing a lot of damage, pollen lost and the worst part, left over over work to still do.

What are some viable options?

My gut says bite the bullet, take the 2-3 days and get it done..

But my hands and brain are telling me no lol..?

How well do these bowls work? Especially with smaller nugs?

Thanks guys...

Peace, love n respect!

Jay

I think I'm just going to buy a trim bowl, use it to do a first pass on fresh pickings.

Let dry and do a final by hand... Before I cure...

Still going to take forever...

Yea Jay I feel you mate I fkn DESPISE trimming and like yourself I have a shit load of it to do(chopped 8 plants this morning)and can't bring myself to start them ........so I might just bite the bullet and pay a couple of my mates that also grow to come give me a hand.it took me 3 days to trim 8 the last grow and a blinding sore head to go with it aswell(heavy sigh)......I don't like the trimming machines to expensive and personally I feel they do more damage than anything and I'm curious to find out wot the difference is between wet and dry trimming......

This machine cuts my time down to about 2.5 hours total, to clean up a pound and it doesn't damage like most of the other machines out there. You can rent em in town for around $250/day. The smaller one that I have means you run it about 20 minutes per pound, then you have to clean it up. All in all saves a lot of time and will get a lot of use on the outdoor this year.

I prefer trimming dry, but the wet trim looks prettier.

Buckle the fuck down and put in your 3 days. Please do it dry. Big fans off and tip the mediums if you want to. Need you to start enjoying trimming, OK?

I don't like machine trim, use to have 2 twister t2s and sold them because of the quality of the trim. Nothing beats a good dry hand trim. Just hire some people to do it for you
