I-Power bud trimming machine wet or dry ?

[horribleherk]

I recently got one of these I would like to hear from anyone using one of these or has at least seen one used mine came with 2 blades I will be harvesting soon my personal preference is to trim dry but open to suggestions any experience better than none

 

[Meatman]

The one I have the wet trim option absolutely sucks but the dry trim option is awesome but mine is a different brand

 

[Dis]

I have the Risentek based on @Meatman & @Dino Party recs, it works great with dry material, but I cant speak to wet material or that model/brand. @H.A.F. over at Chuckers has that trimmer, maybe reach out, best of luck.

Pretty sure it's gotta be just right . Dry is good 🤙

I have found Using mine with dry I find a lot of tric in the bottom afterwards. I have been striping all the Big Leafs. Trim Wet then Dry. Then come back and hand trim to my liking.
If the Plant has a lot of Foxtails I just hand trim. I have a Love Hate relationship with mine. My 2 cents

Thanks I could see this gobbling up some of the fox tail bud

I will Add the hash out of the bottom from Dry Trimming was always nice.

I guess I'll find out soon enough starting wet & then trying various stages of dryness

That's an area I'm wanting to get into either hash or rosin

Been looking at rosin presses with the trimmings in mind thinking that if I remove the larger fans first the sift should be high enough quality to press?

With rosin it seems to be all about the strain. But generally, yeah, that's all I dab. I sift my sugar trim, bag it, press it.
Just don't be shocked when you come across a strain or two that just won't give good returns no matter the temps or pressure, not even the top buds. It's all about the chemical make-up of the oils and terpenes.

I could see where strain choice would be a major issue I have a lot to research on everything from presses to the bags scraping tools well pretty much everything lol

I liked the dab press 6 ton press i got from Amazon. Was $500 or so and could squish 7 grams no problem.

Out of all the strains I squish my lvtk was the best producer. I only squished 3.5 grams and got nearly a gram or so, can't remember but its in my thread I believe. Came out super blond. All the other strains were more amber in color.

Look for them sticky/greasy buds and give them a squish. Og and chem lineage would be my suggestions but you never know till you squish.

Edit, that was a dab press press i bought not rosin tek. The rosin tek wouldn't ship to po box and when I asked for a saturday delivery they were kind of stand off-ish saying FedEx wouldn't do that, but they will, so I canceled order and ordered from Amazon.

It's becoming a genetic trait some are hunting now, so the selection and knowledge of, should start improving and I imagine it will be a selling feature soon, maybe a description on websites etc.

LSD from Barney's Farm is my main rosin strain. Comes out like cheese at lower temps. Collects super easy. Super tacky. I've pulled over 30% with it, typically about the 25% range though. EDIT : (with dry flower)

GG#4 also presses great.
Don't forget moisture content.
I find that 62% is where it needs to be and don't be afraid to play with different temps and times with different strains.

Cheapo SS dental picks are fine for collection

Duuuurp. Yes. I forgot moisture. Rather important. When I said "dry flower" I meant buds....not actually dry dry weed lol. You don't wanna be pressing crumbly stuff, impacts yield big time.

Same press, but I got the 12 ton version.

I've seen DNA-r/p mention concentrate in their descriptions so rosin could be next I've heard for a long time that lsd is one of Barneys best strains

LSD is phenomenal. I bought 5 seeds and picked the one plant that stood out. Insane trichomes. Great calyx to leaf ratio. Ultra dense buds. The tops tend to smell nutty, very little smell, and the next level down tend to have this overwhelming citrus smell that burns your nostrils. It's a weird bouquet, but just potent, almost acrid.

Good yield too.

Leafly says it's only 16% THC, I call bullshit. And let's say, even if it is low THC, then it's the blend of CBD, CBN and other cannabinoids that floor you. Definitely nitey-nite smoke.

The one downside, at least with the one I picked, is it has the stickiest resin I have ever dealt with, by far. I've grown many a strains, and they are all sticky, but none come close to this plant I have. I actually dread trimming it. I can trim about 1/2 oz before every single set of scissors I have has to be scraped off. I get retarded amounts of finger/scissor hash with LSD.

@DavidDellaRocco
That IS the 12 ton version with 4x7 plates
