Here's some xxx Og at 1 month....

I couldn't believe it ...i didn't have to run a single bud through twice, it took me 3 days to cut the buds off and 22 minutes for a perfect manicure, buds were so sticky coming out it was stupid....probably from Trichome heads being cut off ...but this machine is the bomb...

Notice all the Kief on the floor :)
3 days to cut buds and 22 min to run it through....for 40 plants only? dont mean to sound like a part pooper, but i can easily do those 40 plants by hand in one day, 2 days if im working both days an 8 hour shift...

ive had a few trimmers(not the t4) in my day, sold each and everyone of them for about 20% what i paid for them....i found it to be extremely time consuming to remove buds, large stem and large leaf...at that point the bud was almost trimmed...so in my experience you can trim about 140 large plants in 2 days with 5 ppl and a trimmer, then its worth it because you got 5 ppl removing buds and getting them ready for trimmer....but with only 1-3 ppl on a smaller grow...i find trimmers pointless tools for the lazy, and it shows in i=final dry product.....i can point out the "trimmer" bud and "hand" trimmed stuff right through the bag lol...i will never buy a rimmer again, i would rather hire out ppl and have it take a bit longer....

funny part is, i could have had 20 ppl tell me that by hand is the way to go and trimmers are not anything special...but i needed to know myself...found out and wasted thousands of $$ in the process...

now i run a smaller room(only 8 lights compared to the 26 i used to have)....and run 140 plants per run...everything is trimmed in less than 4 days and i do it all by my self

sorry bro didnt mean to hijack thread, and no not about ego, i was just stating that i find trimmers to be a waste unless you have enough ppl to opperate them efficiently....and follow up post was proof from someone who asked for it...not meaning to hijack bro
 
My apologys labud, @Joe Fresh I was j/k brother thanks for the show tho ;)

I'm definitely gonna need a helper next harvest.....at 58 I can still be a machine when I need to.....Friday I took 120 buckets down a flight a stairs to empty filled up 80 and took them back up a flight ,picked up 20 large bags of perlite and took 35 used bags to the dumpster...slept like a rock but woke up sore...glad everyday is not like that... but I still have 100 buckets to empty,clean out and refill...
Time for a beer.....Go GREENBAY....

Awesome stuff! All us farmers can relate, jus maybe not such a big scale :) very impressive
 
What I don't get is why not veg longer and reduce the plants by half the size and you will see the same results minus a lot of extra work in watering, trimming, cutting and space to move around.

Well ,these plants got too high in veg, with buckets there about 6 ft. High after stretch. ...i lollipopped, remember I have 600s , heres

I averaged about a lb. A light...nothing impressive...these were dispensery cuts...I've gotten a hold of some better genetics that will be going in soon , bubba Jones has been known to throw 3 per light...with me it's all about quality vs yield though, I have some gg4 and will be getting TK and LHB soon...

With 8 ft. Ceilings I had to go with 600s. ..if I had 1000s I could do trees

Edit ...these are gavitas

I'm doing 1000s with 8 ft ceilings what's your total wattage per room and what's energy cost in la.. if you were in Michigan I'd hook you up with clones we some wicked stuff

People need to stop bragging on his thread , cause you know MI is beating CO and Cali on genes lol ha RIGHT CAUSE THATS where they stole em and beg for em!

, props to you labud : quality over yields and stupidity

Dude you don't have to 58 for all that lifting to make ya sore ... Need some porn in here la
 
Nice work La. In five years that house is toast brother. Those highend louvered window shutters are gonna love that humidity. Those will cost about $400 a room to replace. $200 to then paint them. Those hardwoods are gonna be fucked as well. Refinishing those will be an easy 5k. Drywall repair and re painting will be a cool 20k. The nice baseboards are all gonna hafta be removed and refinished.....probably around 15k for all the trim. Are your doors solid wood? Those won't close right and will be warped to shit. They are at least 200 apiece without paint,install and finish....if pot prices keep dropping over the next 5 years you are gonna have one really irritated homeowner to deal with. At 3k a month for rent surely you could find 1000 ft of commercial space for that price. As a homeowner, landlord, grower and finish carpenter I beg you, stop. What you are doing is not smart, cool, healthy or efficient at all. Bad juju brother. Another rental dope house horror story for some poor homeowner to relate to their even more horrified insurance agent.

You've obviously got skills man and a funtional brain. It's a shame that you don't have an appropriate space. Definitely not hating on you man. Time to update the nineties grow house model and get yourself a facility.
 
Wow...that's a lengthy rant....
1st off with the cfm I'm pulling the humidity is about 18% in some rooms, this grow was professionally set up and will be professionally taken down. I have always gotten my security deposit back in the many houses I have grown in....thanks for your concern. ..please move on...
 
Had 1 landlord in 45 years and it was only for 2 yrs , he sucked and if not for my family and hobby would be crippled by now....my rant
Zeke a pm would of been a better way to express your opinion IMHO la's thread was rocking personal feelings on side issues only derail
