Lets say you have a big harvest, how fast can you trim? half a pound/hour? day?

How about a trimpro? And how do you procede?

Give your secrets here please.

Forget trimpro. Takes all the fun out.

It's way more fun to get a couple of buddies to come over, light up, and help you trim. I'd much prefer that. Makes it less of a chore, and more of a bonding experience.

Edit: Plus, if you've got a couple of buddies helping, the process goes a lot quicker.

seriously, it sucks after a bit, especially when you are dealing with pounds at a time

A pound would easily take the whole day. I do about 2 ounces an hour.

My Boss wasn't real happy when calling in for a no-show, was trimming Buds. It IS a JOB! Took me forever. A little AC/DC & whatever helps. The old band, "Sticky Fingers" comes to mind. Drying is important, but as much, curing properly. Good Luck.

Lots of people have no idea how boring harvesting buds can get. I take it slow and don't meticulously prune/trim anymore, cuz' it's just my stash. I'm doing a split harvest and, now that I've got cured smoke in jars, I basically dread harvesting the plants I have left. It's certainly proven good for leaving the buds on the remaining plants to further mature . . . cuz' the anticipation dies w/the 1st delicious finished puff.
