Thanks Bombay!
I love that tray and have had it for years now. I should give it a spin in the sink as I see it is getting a bit grimey. Bamboo is good.
The green is some Panama x GG4 ril (thank you Ace and Tony Green)
The hash might look a touch green too but it looked pretty pale blonde when I mashed it.
Its a collection of everything that fell through my tim-bin the past few weeks as I've been taking plants and trimming as they are dry. I saved the trimmings from the recent plants all in a turkey bag and then ran the lot over the screen lightly a few times after separating the stems out. Just to increase the final collection w/o over-doing it too much and get too much plant material in there. I will take the trim and sift it again for some more collection or put away until I have a lot of it and do it all at once. Sometimes during winter I will take all my trim and run it through the trim-bin outside on my porch if the humidity is low and it isnt too windy. Freezing or just above freezing is great for making the resin heads brittle but it also can make the plant material brittle too. Ive noticed that working in the cold and with pre chilled trim the collection happens faster and with less agitation. I like to take whatever Im going to sift and put t in the freezer for an hour or so prior to the sifting but it's not necessary especially if the air is very dry low humidity.
The piece you see up there is just pressed in the palm with my thumb for a minute and then mashed together. If its good sift it will stick together easily.
Id say if you trim all your stuff dry over a screen you would easily have ten times that right there. The leaves and stems alone actually have a good amount of trichs. I'm always amazed how much sift I can get out of what looks like garbage, second rate material for edibles even. You can scope the collection as you go to see how the purity is doing.
How do you normally trim, before the hang and dry or after?
