Well our program doesn't really ever end so we thought instead of having the blah blah blah season, and the next journal the blah, blah, blah season, we figured we would just do a never ending (hopefully) thread. To catch up on the previous year please go here... https://www.thcfarmer.com/community/threads/nomads-landing-2013-season.54367/ or here... https://www.thcfarmer.com/community...h-desert-greenhouse.55921/page-6#post-1148138
THE FISKARS VS. BONSAI HERO STAND OFF!!!
Ok, so we are so, so tired of workers (there could be a huge thread on why), if you can actually call them that, we have decided to look at other options. After much research, and video watching, we settled on the Bonsai Hero electric scissors. If these were on a display table with some nugs, and you gave them a try, you would most likely feel dissatisfied. However, if you are an individual of perseverance, focused tunnel vision, and a steady hand these are for you. I personally have carpal tunnel, and these allow me to work for hours, day after day, week after week. These nugs are semi-moist, very,very semi, as in if left indoors, with our fireplace running, they are crunchy in an hour. So the nugs were trimmed as if they would be normally, taking care not to spend extra time if you will, knowing that they would end up here. The Fiskars nug took a full 5 minutes 50 so odd seconds, while the Bonsai Hero nug took 3 minutes 30+ seconds. Now this may not seem like a lot of time, but when there is thousands of these to do... 1/3 of the time is HUGE! So on that note... if you only have like 5 pounds then save your 500 bones for the single unit or 750 for the 2 unit LED models. If you have 30 or so, then they might be worth your consideration. With the bonsai hero you need to learn technique, in which only comes with persistent practice. As of now, when I grab some scissors, I'm like "Why am I using these, I don't want to use these." Hahahaha. They sound like a sowing machine, or an old ball head type writer. They also allow you to get the crows feet as well as the valley's and ridges, even the foxtails or donkey ears stay intact as well. If your not paying attention you can destroy your nugs though, especially if they are too dry. Keep that in mind. We cannot emphasize enough about the practice, steady hand, attention. On a danger level, really good for stoners. I went ahead and stuck my finger in the cutters to see what would happen and I got a little bite, no blood, not even a blister, just a little line for like 2 hours at the most. The pic is shitty, sorry shot it with the phone.
