Trimmers

we used to do the "dry tickle" method in the 80's…dunno why i stopped

It is amazing to watch someone do that. Never heard it called a dry tickle but that explains it well. Saw a friend of mine do a half pound lickadee split.
 
Someone asked if I had first hand experience with the trim-pal. I do not. Yet!

Just thinking of all the trichs it knocks off makes me cringe and still you need to go over it by hand. Forget about trying to market it as high grade and be prepared to drop your price even lower than the money you saved from paying trimmers. With that said I see value on just running your second and third cuttings through it and mixing that in with your hand trimmed tops. Not sure I see any value for indoor guys as it would turn it into mid grade outdoor looking buds. It's cheaper than a twister and the fact that it's for dry bud allows you to dry and cure normally and trim it at your leisure instead of needing a crew of at least 5 to keep the twister fed and having to dry wet bud on racks.
 
So I went and bought a trim pal and am gonna use it how I outlined in my above post. I don't know anyone who has tried it yet. I'll let y'all know in a a month or so what I think...maybe some pic too.
 
I was leaning towards the T4 ...it's expensive, but it looks to be the best in my limited research
 
anyone ever used the whip trimmer?

i got 18 lbs to trim myself, no crew, no possibility of one, this whip trimmer i could throw down a g and speed up the process. but i was hoping to get some actual feedback?

There is a similar hand held version that seems a little easier to use. Forget the name.

so i had been considering getting a trim pal.

i know a guy out here in colorado that just gave it a try on some outdoor and stopped using it before he was done..said it was definitely a no go and that it wasted alot of flower , knocked tons of trichs off and didnt do that great of a job on top of that. apparently the twister did a much better job but he prefers to trim dry. i believe he is hand trimming the rest now.

just thought id post that for anyone like myself that was thinking of buying one
