Yes, that was the second time that batch went through the bag. Don’t call it a trimmer. You might as well 1/2 fill a 5 gallon bucket up take it out back and kick it around the yard. Don’t get me wrong the bag will help some folks out.

It’s about rite. I’ve had to let it sit in the drying room for an extra 2 weeks. I got sick on the 18th had to drop the temps and adjust the humidity till I get over this. Took all I got to do what I did today. I’m a one man operation over here. Don’t like anyone in my way with my grow.

See I’m the opposite. I tried dry trimming a few times and that made me want to blow my head off. Wet trimming is just easier and you get nice tight buds without any extra leaf material. Call me wierd.

Im with you dude..wierd is the new cool..always wet trimmed.ive found if i hang it a little too long then cut it all off the branch and lay it on paper in draw it stays a little fluffy..if i cut it all off branch and straight onto screen wet i get tight buds.i got nothin against dry trim just prefer to get straight into it ..Cheech like peach..Chong like dong.

Yeah i do it that way as well. Dry trimming sucks. I don’t mind wet trimming. Although my grows are a fraction of the size these other guys have going on so a little trimming here and there never really bothers me much.

Same batch second shake in the trim bag. Shake is smaller 20% more shake in the bag after the second shake. Overall, I’m pleased with the results. Would I do it again, that’s a definite no for me. For some this bag will be perfect. It definitely will save you some time on trimming. Like I said it will pay for itself.........eventually. In my case should a saved the $300 for the trimpal.

So it has to be crispy to work?
My weed is dried low and slow and usually isn’t the that crispy. How does that bag thing work?
Does it have blades?
We have trimmers at the grow that hand trim. All top colas, all smaller stuff goes through the twister commercial unit

Temp and humidity is the key to a proper drying technique. Those have been hanging on stalk for 3 weeks at 65- 68f at 55-65% humid. Crispy outside dense and curing inside at those temps and contaiment.

How does it taste?

Many flavors, I’ve had no complaints. Unfortunately I’m sick and can’t taste anything.

Do you use it wet or dry?
I went in partners with my buddy on one and even half was a lot of $ for me, I don't know what I would do without it now. I have to slap myself every now and then for bitching about all the de-nugging I have to do to get it ready for the machine.:)

I did the same went halves on one with a buddy I normally trim wet I hand trim the big buds dry trimming
makes clean up easier but I prefer to wet trim . Saves a ton of time the key is not to overload it let the machine do its job and keep it clean and prep the buds properly .

I'll strip the fan leaves by hand either outdoors or in a room easy to sweep. Then I'll string wires across a room and dry the branches about a week to ten days at 50% humidity running dehumidifiers and fans in the room. Then throw those whole tops snipped into the big rubbermaid type tubs and "burp" them for the next couple of weeks, gently turning the colas from bottom to top every few days. Then I'll start my dry trim and jar up after it has cured a couple of months. Just don't tub up too early and forget to burp the tubs (it can mold). IMO the trichs are better preserved and the work load is spread out over months instead of days.
Been doing it that way for years and it beats the hell out of any wet trimming. In fact no wet trimming at all.

What I do almost exactly. Wet trimming sucks balls.
