Trimmers don't bring out the full quality of the bud as I'm sure you know....so we tried to hand trim everything....the smell is so much better if you hand trim
I honestly can't tell you the exact reason why...it has something to do with when you hand trim the smell gets released...where as a machine almost beats the bud up...the quality of the buds goes way down hill in a trimmer....if you have ever trimmed a mass amount with a trimmer...and then did it by hand you can tell the difference right away
To us the time saved wasn't worth it...peeps we were selling to actually thought we had different weed when we started doing it by hand....we're able to charge more for it to )
trimming by hand makes it more likely that you're losing crystals
Trimming by hand definitely saves more crystals than a machine. By hand you are gently touching and grabbing the buds. Trimming by machine has the buds tumbling over and over and over and over and over again.
The flip side of that is the amount each bud gets handled... 60 seconds in a tumbler isn't much compared to handling each bud by hand. There is no squeezing, pinching or other types of finger fucking the buds. There are no hash fingers either. I doubt you could even tell the difference between a hand trimmed bud and one that went through the twister. The bag appearance didn't change at all after moving up to the Twister. Also, the Twister never gets a "fuck it, good enough" attitude after 6 hours of work.
