Seriously, whenever anyone claims the government won't earn much tax revenue because of people growing, I'll laugh in their face. It's a lot of damn work. I'm four hours into trimming, and I'll only have about 5 ounces when it's dried. Plus, months of keeping the plants alive.

There a reason 95+% of Colorado smokers aren't growing their own.

Was it over when the Japanese bombed Hiroshima? Fight through the pain, fill up the bong and achieve your destiny: Man Who Brings Buds to the World.

Technically, all of this trimming might be for nothing. I came home from work to my Durban Poison plant busted in half. I don't think it was ready for harvest. But, since it was on the ground and dying, I had to do this tonight.

I had a couple branches break on another plant two weeks ago. After dying and curing it, it was so premature, it doesn't smell like weed. I might have 6-7 ounces of premature weed. Hopefully, I can at least use it to make butter. It would hurt my soul to throw away that much weed.



Hopefully it's smokable. This was the plant I was most excited about.

Are you sure posting this type of shite on the Internet is the best idea?

Amateur. You hire illegal bitches to do this work. They have to be naked so you know they aren't stealing.

No. More just explaining how much work it is. I've probably spent over a hundred hours over the last few months tending to these plants. And I am kinda pissed that I'm spending hours trimming weed that may be worthless.

Quit being a pussy... get an 8ball and 2 cases of beer... rage all night and you'll be fine... I use to trim 10lb yields all the time... 48 hours average... suck it up crybaby


Oh yea, that weed looks like shite... learn to prop your plants up like a real grower so they don't break... and another tip... trim before you cure... much easier and less likely to damage the product and loose kief cuz it's still sticks to the plant... Your welcome!!

Is that a hi-hat in the back?
Nice!!

Do u know how to make BHO/shatter/wax... or whatever clever name is all the rage?? You can do it pretty easy and use your leftover trimmings to put em to good use

A little PVC and some butane is all it takes to make it

Nice K hi-hats!


Eta: Not a hi-hat, looks like it's on a hi-hat stand...hard to see the cymbal. Either way, nice!

Well yeah. It's probably premature as hell.

Holy shite, how long would that take? I've always heard experienced trimmers take about 8 hours per pound.

I should've known better. It gets pretty windy where I'm at. But that plant was topped 3-4 times, and there wasn't anyway to brace it properly. You live and learn. Luckily, there's still 11.5 more plants. I'll still get some good herb.

Nope. That's a something I built for when I play my Cajon. It's a cymbal mounted with a bass pedal. I use it when I'm playing with an acoustic band. The hi hat is downstairs with my kit. Though I'll sometimes use the hi hat too when I'm playing some blues or something else funky. Just depends on which band I'm playing with.
