I have a spin trim. I use this only for strains that are very leafy typically OG strains. . All other strains get hand trim since there easy to do.
The Brotherhood OG ,Fruity Pebbles OG get the spin trim then hand finish. I will have to see what the GOJI OG looks like when done. The spin trim is ok but if you spin to fast for a long time the flowers you put in will be sliced to almost nada. I put in handball sized buds and got marbles back lmao so Im careful with it..If I could only find a OG strain that has a high calyx to leaf ratio.
some of the machines are a joke and do more damage than trimming from what I have seen some look like they would be good for large volumes but I don't mind trimming my buds and some you could never do on any machine because of the various contures and shapes of the bud .if you want good weed trim it yourself or your stuck with what ever method it was done with .anything that tumbles the bud or has fingers turning it is going to knock off surface and dried trics.good outdoor is as good as any indoor except for the bug factor which sometimes happens more often outdoors but safers soap and various other safe killing methods make it possible to be bug free even outdoors . one thing I learned to cut down on trim time is to set up right alcohol and paper towels to keep the scissors clean and harvesting a few limbs at a time so the leafs don't lie down like they do if they sit to long or you dry then trim.nowdays if your not doing it right and making a good product your just wasting your time because there is always a glut of poorly treated and grown swag that nobody wants unless its so cheap your giving it away .its better to grow quality and forget about mega pounds if your winding up with shit aloha cls
I trim dry, It give's me a better product when done. My spin trim doesn't get used much. I can do a wet trim with it on the OG buds then when there dry I do a final hand trim. it does speed up the process.
I AM a fucking machine when i trim by hand i wont do it any other way, ya my back and hands hurt for days but i am O.C.D and i go crazy until i am done.
