you do realze trimmer are anywhere from 500-1000$

scissors and hands = best trimming tool if you personally don't like doing it find a good trust worthly friend and hire him in to do the job? maybe a jobless friend?

Most trimmers i see batter the buds around thus knocking a ton of trichome material off i prefer the hand trimming i know its hard on the hands but i prefer my resin to end up in my lungs not on the growers catch screen .

I agree, even the best trimmers don't leave the buds as nice as human hands.

I would only use a trimmer for outdoor stuff, and only if theres alot of it.

I have a twisted trimmer got it on ebay 211. Works well enough although, saves huge time. What the people reported on it possibly going too far is true. I watch it and try not to let it go too far. and also trim big buds by hand. Its your call. The trim eventually become hash. Good luck.

I know some guys that groom your product by hand and do an excellent job and are very trustworthy. I won't name them here but everyone knows them

[Camnibus]

Trim it by hand, It's fun! ( smoke your scissor hash as you go )

[Catfinger]

KingDiamond said it all, trimmers beat your meds up and never do as good a job as by hand. So it depends what kind of quality you want. Any quality hand trimmer would do a better job. Dont be lazy, you invested 65-75 days just in your bloom stage already, dont skimp now! Thankfully I have a trimmer who does all mine and does some of the best work I've seen, hence the reason I let them do it and dont even bother myself anymore. I pay for my high quality trimmers though, to the tune of around $50 per 3-4oz plant. Worth every penny when its done and especially that they are 100% trustworthy, worth it for that alone.

[newbie313]

I.understand what you all are saying.... still there are other things to consider.

[Northern Lab]

Our local grow store rents a trimmer out by the day. You may want to check there first.

Nothing like hand trimming, tho...

[newbie313]

I saw a few stores that rent out the big automated Trimmers
But I just want a manual one... looks like a salad bowl. Anyone have any ideas.of which is best?

[Estimated Prophet]

I have always thought that machine trimmed bud was sub-par quality, like the Cali outdoor that makes it's way here.

Is this what you are talking about?
