150 a unit + clipper hash + a free mackerel sandwich


One trim crew of 3 people i know do it for no money. Except all the trim is theirs for hash..

My trimmers get 6.5% of the product that they trim which equals an ounce a day. If they can't trim a pound a day, they don't have a job anymore.

Usually people that can't trim a pound a day walk after the first paycheck. It's hard fucking work, I'm thinking about switching to machines next year to do my outdoor. Just one nice standup and my wife and I could handle most of our outdoor I'm pretty sure.

Machines are for commercial. They literally beat the shit off yer weed. Trim after using most of these machines, sucks for making hash. I guess its a trade off. Peace GS

Have 4 of them, worth every penny. Need to change the blade every few runs and replace the odd rubber ring that holds the top and base together, but that's expected wear and tear. The machine is very gentle on the bud and the trim makes great ISO

GS you shouldn't talk shit about mackerel, delicious fish and its very high in nutrition and fish oils. I could make you a mackerel sandwich you cannot refuse. Mackerel sushi, that's the way I wont have it.

same here! yuck^^^
Mackerel are candy! lol well when i was a kid we would gaff them out the weir and sell them around to the old folks and get friday candy mola....
 
Too bad they didn't have cod liver oil in capsules back then. Cod liver is tasty too, mix a can of it with some diced hard boiled egg, some fresh shallot, a pinch of dill, a squirt of lime and some good mayo, put on nice toasted rye bread. Phillips Brewing Skookum ale with it, mmm. I know what my lunch is, lol.

haha i was half kidding about the mackerel.. We do run a farm. So roast pig,chicken,garden veg and fresh caught what ever fish is on the menu :)
 
What are wages looking like this fall for trimmers? With prices down are wages down too? Or will the trimmers just have to wait until it sells next year to get paid?
