Awesome bro.... My first thought is the trimming nightmare. Thinking about a trimming machine?

I love everything about this hobby minus the trimming. Fuck I hate it lol.

I am waiting on back surgery and sitting and hand trimming for days is just miserable and painful.

what I'm thinking here is.... I need a area (small) for clones and beans, Need area veg, flower then a spot to have a few mother plants, and a drying area......
also a spot for vegs to eat.......
if this works out right I 'm thinking I'll just be trimming every month for a few days :) maybe

Thats the best part of my system. I only trim a plant or two every week or two. Plants were averaging 5.5 oz. i can trim that in a couple to three hours.

But like the post office. “The mail keeps coming”. If you get my meaning. Lol

With all different plants from seed the timing is the hard part. And i end up mixing individual gallons of nutes for all the different strains and stages of growth.

Yeah I feel ya my L4 and L5 discs are bulged pressing on the nerve root and spinal cord. Was trimming for days last harvest. Though I was gonna die. I can usually get by on CBD and smoking but for a week I had to pump myself full of that shitty hydromorphone just to get by.


I'm gonna be looking at building a wet trimmer or switch to dry trimming and maybe give one of those trim bags a try. I hate to bastardize my buds after all that hard work but I'm done hand trimming just can't sit that long. Besides I kinda enjoy building stuff and keeps my brain workin.. and the decent trimmers are like 7k plus, I'm sure I can do it for less than a grand... get bored to dam easy.

Nice... I would help but there are much better sources for info on that equipment. If it were DWC or RDWC I could list everything to the part numbers. But if your thinking if trickle or bio filters that I can help with.

that is the main thang,with clones you get them pretty close ,from seed they tend to want to take a break every now and then,mother plant and clones is the ticket,beside that no seed buying at ridiculious prices

You want an RDWC system. Just give me the number of sites I will sit down over it this weekend and put it all together with links to each piece and total costs. That way you know what ur getting. Making sure you have the proper turnover, air pumps that match the stones, ideal flow. All of which you would think you get it a premade system but you don't.

Just say the word lol
