Never tried to dry trim. Will try it. I usually get about 4 ounces a hour dry trimming. Will have to see if it would jump that up.

Hand trimming is the best quality hands down, if you have the right trimming crew. When I'm not in a hurry I'll trim until the nugs are flawless. Dry trimming takes me about an hour and a half a plant averaging 4oz per, but that's me getting a little overzealous. If I'm just trying to make it passable, forty five minutes a plant. My boy has a $10,000 trimmer. The nugs come out looking like beat up shit. Will not waste money on one unless I have to trim more than 10lbs a month, and I won't smoke anything that comes out of it.
i just did 13+ lbs as a side job,even with breaks it was only 5 hours for a pound,and at 300/lb in a nice new office chair in a nice place...all glue and glue hybrids...one room went 3+ per light,the other 2+...a little more dialing in an both rooms should pull 3+ consistently...
but all hand trimmed,dry,or rather still curing in the totes as we trimmed it...

When I say 4 ounces per hour hand trimming I should clarify some.
Any small, off color, or larf gets ground up and rolled. The bigger stuff I trim. It comes out nice tightly trimmed with the hairs still in tack sticking out. Most crap I see where I sell to looks beat to hell.
Today I dropped of some glue to be tested. They were drooling over it. To bad it was preflush haha. I want to see the difference between 61 day glue and 70 day glue for thc.

Some will say the early pull will get the high test results, myself, I'm not convinced yet. The highest results I've had out of everything I've tested were some clones taken 88 days. A Tresdawg ix came in at 30.5% and two different Headbangers came in at 27% so I'm not too quick to jump on the earlier is better claim. FWIW the only time I had glue tested it came in at 21%
How long did you take that Tres Dawg? 88 days?

Mines tested at 20.49% at 56 days, but the sample was nowhere near done losing water weight. I lost 20% weight on the jar it came from, and recalculated, if 1000mg tested at 204.9mg delta9, but would have been an actual 800mg sample, 204.9 mg still stands, and is 25.65% by my math. The lab confirmed my theory, and guesstimated the sample to be over 25%. I tested a 70day glue, bone dry and cured all the way, only hit 22.09%. And everything else lined up with people's description of the phenomena (got more coffee smell, way more couchlocky, way less diesel nose) so I'm a believer in the 8 wk flower time for potency with the glue only
Tres dawg and Headbanger both seem like they'd be more of a 9-11wk flower, so I wouldn't go making extrapolation about the glue based on other strains. I'm satisfied with my findings from the lab after testing 8wk, 9wk, and 10wk glue from the same flowering room and seeing a consistent drop in potency, not so much in effect. Thanks for letting the tres dawg out by the way, still respecting your wishes over here, nobody's getting her from me
Not that it proves anything, because I can't prove the 8wk sample was wet, but here's both results
8wks
10wks
Seems like an increase, but if you tried to break up and smoke the 8wk sample and the 10wk, you'd see what I mean. Also, the plant that went 8wk was the one with health issues I posted pics of a month or so ago, pythium from gnats and salt buildup from clogged drippers, the ten week plant was dialed as fuck and quadrupled the yield and STILL tested lower. I was shocked.

And hummusmonks skva s1 male, and also joesy mentioned a headband gg#4 cross made with a headband s1 male. It's possible. Try and stop nature, you'll lose every time, it just finds a way to keep going
I dropped a caliber IV meter in a jar with my sample. It read 39% I will try and get the 70 day one 39% too.
Yes ichabod the TD went 88 days. I would have taking it a week earlier but was jamed up in the drying room so had to wait. That's why I was blown away by the tests, I thought for sure I missed the "sweet spot".
damn bra. i need that pheno to make some f2's! haha. thinkin abt using orange glue for my next project..

Damn Marr she's a beaut. What's the nose on her? Citrus mocha sounds interesting
Can always get cuts back in your hands. The one you should be interested in though is th MKUltra×GG#4 cross that shit is FIRE!. Had choice I would reach for that jar waayy before reaching for glue. Just the palette alone is insatiable.
PEACE!
