Let’s be honest with ourselves for a moment – trimming our harvest is not exactly a favourite task. It often becomes a rushed and dreaded chore; despite the time and effort we’ve invested in cultivating our crops. But why should we compromise on the quality of our end product by hurrying through this crucial step? The answer lies in having the right equipment to make the trimming process efficient and preserve the product’s quality. Luckily, the team at Just Hydroponics is here to guide you in choosing the perfect trimmer.
For small scale growers or hobbyists, a good pair of scissors, a high-quality pruning saw, and a trim bin will suffice. Personally, I recommend the Chikamasa CRI-360fbk and Saboten pruning saw, which are suitable for any plant. If you’re short on time, a small Bowl trimmer could be the ideal solution.
Medium to large growers spend hours or even days manually trimming with scissors. For you, automatic trimming machines are worth considering. There are various bowl trimmers available, both manual and electric, which significantly speed up the process. Keep in mind that improper use may affect the final product, but they offer great value for money.Or even a good quality table top trimmer could be the answer The Trimpro Rotor is my top choice, followed closely by the 2-in-1 trimmer.
At the higher end of the market, there are premium trimmers like the Centurion Pro model 0 dry batch trimmer or DryPro by Trimpro. These trimmers are incredibly efficient for large jobs while maintaining harvest quality. However, they come with a higher price tag and are best suited for those willing to invest in top-notch equipment.
For even larger growers, I recommend running multiple trimmers simultaneously, such as the Trimpro Automatics, Trimpro Rotor or 2-in-1 trimmer. This approach allows you to mix and match different trimmer types, optimizing efficiency and freeing up time for other tasks.
Commercial growers or those seeking top-of-the-range trimmers may consider larger tumble trimmers like the Twister T2 or the Centurion Pro Gladiator. Additionally, a bucker like the Centurion HP1 Bucker can be helpful, accommodating different drying techniques, whether wet or dry. Storing these large trimmers can be challenging, so consider your needs carefully.
Ultimately, determining the best option for your budget depends on various factors. To make an informed decision, reach out to us at Just Hydroponics. With over two decades of experience, we are here to help you find the right trimming method and equipment for your harvest day.
