Dry trimming is so painstakingly boring ++++

That is a nice bowl of weed you have there.

Every day should start with a good breakfast.

Pretty dam well and it does less damage than scissors do. You can do it over a trim bin to see for yourself

Just gonna say make sure it over a trim bin or screen , when I do it I usisally end up with couple G’s of decent hash ! Bonus

Wet trim and it sucks, however I save, cure the trim and make canna butter then cookies or brownies.

Whats everyone's ritual to harvesting. Wet or dry trim?

Dry trimming is easier.

My ritual involves an animal sacrifice, but no bleeding on the reefer or it ends up being a wet trim again.

I just spent 2 days trimming 9 plants..I think I’m cross-eyed now!
3 pineapple x press
3 trainwreck
3 G-13
Total 30 oz total
I have 4 more that will be ready in about a week and 9 more that are in week 2 flower.
That will give me plenty THEN no more than 2 plants at a time lol so I can enjoy the process!

Sooooo much faster lol no finger cramps bit you need to make sure your dried enough and moisture content is not still high inside the bud. Then its a breeze

Yeah. I can't imagine manicuring any other way after using dry trim and brush.

Yeah. I can't imagine manicuring any other way after using dry trim and brush.

Ahh you do this also?

 

[Habosabin]

Ahh you do this also?

Yeah. I use a betty crocker silicon brush I bought for a dollar at the dollar store. It works great. dry trim plus silicon brush is about as easy as it gets I think.

If trimming is done at leisure I find it relaxing. Otherwise a pita.

I'm looking forward to harvesting this year. And can hardly wait to make some delicious bubble hash.

I trim wet I trim dry. It doesnt matter imo. Though its a little easier and less time consuming dry.

@CannaGranny you get to try it out yet? Buds dried even enough? I found if they are still a bit to moist the leaves may not break off as easily.

This guy came up with a great little invention to do that trimming we hate.

My diy wind driven 5 gallon dry weed trimmer

Obviously, the trimmer is based on many diy bucket dry trimmers we’ve seen around the inter webs. My original plan was to just hand crank this, but I got to cogitating about it, and this is what I came up with…

I still wet trim everything. But I'm.... unusual. I freeze dry some, process a lot for concentrates which does not need manicured buds, and do other stupid stuff no one else here does. I just realized this comment is useless.

Had three plants to trim today for curing in grove bags. I trim my plants live about a week before harvest. I just chop, hang, and strip buds when dry. All bagged up and heat sealed closed. Now in the dark for a month. I’m pleased with this grow. The dried bud is good, and burns perfect. Smells very good. Can’t wait to try when cured.

Yes started
with fingers and liked the finger hash but took for ever seen you do it and bam I tried ! Also use the bbq brush for dry sift, where G uses a boars hair

I did try it out! It works perfect! Thanks for sharing that! I am super tired of sitting, even with that xlent idea I still spent around seven hours today. I’m down to my last plant and it’s about four to five days out and darn I am glad! I’m going to look for a brush with shorter bristles tho, the fingers on the one the Hubby has is a bit longer than the one you are using. I also like what it does to the sugar leaves. Great idea!

I wet trim everything. Have tried dry trimming and theres no difference in the finished flowers. With dry trimming its next to impossible to get a nice manicure of the little leaves.
