Agreed i do most of my trimming wet its a pain in the arse especially with leafy strains i find if you do it dry its alot harder to clip the tiny leaves as they curl round the bud when dry to each there own but id say its the easier option to trim wet the hay smells a different thing that comes from drying too fast ime
Definitely not that bad a smoker XD none of my jars have buds like that and i got a jar a few feet away from me that has been sitting there for maybe 3 1/2 months. I've never had any better looking shaped buds just by letting them cure in a jar. Kinda silly to me, but im not gonna say it's not possible.
Ok, so i take it you know for sure the machine can make them look that way? I definitely don't care enough to lose trichs and any good resin just for a look of a bud. I just always saw them and wondered why none of mine ever looked that way. Most all my stuff does look like pic #1. Not bad looking at all in my opinion.
Cool. I've seen people say they love them, and can obviously tell it is easier and faster than by hand but i might harvest 4-5 oz per harvest most times so i don't really think i need that stuff.
Ooh nice buds buddy.
It's a strange thing to aim for anyway, so i dont go out of your way to do anything "silly." Your bud looks fine as it is. If it's a good smoke, then it's a good bud.
