Damn! Love the pic of that hand sized nug, looks beautiful!

Thanks :) that was just a standard top! I don't see that bud being broken down any further, and should come close to 10g dried! Some of the biggest are still on the plants until tomorrow...
Just getting a feel for the Bonsai Heroes before I have my ex go to town on the rest.

Only took enough to get the hang of the bonsai heroes. I expect only one plant or less was chopped today.
At the time of the pic; this was trimmed.

Much more to come tomorrow!
After trimming that stack, I ended up with two levels of jammed packed drying racks.

Worth every damn penny! No cramping in my hands, and I would have trimmed all day gladly if I didn't have my son yesterday. He is with his mom for the weekend, so it's on after I drop him off at school...

I have been dipping my trimmers and my fingers into 96% alcohol, which will be recovered after the trim :)
Chem Sis is the stickiest strain I have had to trim. It was slowing me down...

The fucking closet won't stop stretching! Guess there's worse problems to have. If I could wire another breaker, I could throw 2 more lights in there and not have any wasted lumens.

After filling two racks, this is what's left of the first 4. Still plenty of flowers on them :)

The USD is still cranking, and showing some colors. Been tapering their last light feed for the last week. Plan on chopping her on Tuesday at 70 days.

....I love the smell of fresh sugar-trim in the morning...

Edging ever closer to F45 I hope. :tiphat:

Yes indeed! Fucking killed it this round.
Had a colleague come over who has been running the Sis for the last 7 years, and he was blown away at the size of the buds. He has pulled as much as 2 1/4 per light with the Sis, but never buds this size.
His guy that has been giving him his cuts doesn't keep a mother, and takes new cuts from each run, but hermies have been an issue, so he picked up my cut which may be closer to the original.
He is a big player, and already has his paperwork ready through Ben Rice. Just needs 100k and a couple more producers. He runs 20 lights, but can only provide a third of the inventory needed. Phase 2 of Freedom 45 is coming together just as planned :)

Looks like my first pic from yesterday didn't load.
Anyways, took about 6 hours to work through this table load.

I still have 6 half plants to trim...

Half plants left to trim......I can think of worse things....Finding the proper hybrid that`ll fill in and stack by end of stretch , and then swell accordingly with bare bulbs till end of cycle is the holy grail of quality and quantity......

Awesome nuggage Bro....

Peace.....Freds.....:ying:....

The Chem Sis is definitely a keeper! Doubles in stretch, tolerates defoliation, and swells huge at week 8-9. At week 7 though you are going wtf! Then almost overnight bam...
I thought I took more off than I did when I cut the outermost tops off yesterday, but having only finished 2 complete plants, there is going to be close to 3 pounds from 7 plants, if not more. I weighed a 1/4 oz for a friend from my last tester run, and it looks like an 1/8th. Very dense plant, covered in resin. No way to trim her without gloves and a bowel of solvent.

Why do you have solvent in your bowels? Too much everclear... :)

Looking good Arm.

Lol yeah I caught that after I hit the send button, something didn't look right haha!
Loving the Heroes big time. I am considering hand trimming the biggest ones by hand to avoid cutting off too many calyx's, but just blows through the medium size buds like butter. Thanks for bringing those to the community. As you said, I would buy them 10x over. Now rather than my scissor hand getting sore, my left hand is from turning the stems lol.
