New trimmers - Wow!!!

[jamesphoto]

Just bought some new trimmers from my local grow store. Titanium curved blade trimmers. What a big difference from what I used before. Life is good!!!

Ohh yeah. Have yet to try them. I think they’re bonsai scissors. We’re they expensive ?

I did use them this afternoon. Cleaned them before taking the picture. They were $18 at the grow store. The sissor style gets stuck on your fingers after a few mins. Open design is much, much easier to use

Nice. Going to try them out eventually

Nice! Anything to make the trimming job easier is always good. Good trimmers are a must, glad you found some good ones!
Reminds me of one of the weirdest songs that I ever heard...the scissor man. Snipping, snipping, snipping...

JeffInCanada In 1979 I was ordering 45's and putting them on jukeboxes, XTC was among the many. I always liked the 'Nigel' song. New wave music was fun times.

The first pair I bought when starting to grow are like your blue ones. I drilled a small hole in the end of one of the handles and screwed in a cup hook so I could hang them up when not in use. After 7 or 8 grows they are still in use in the grow room for trimming during grows. I liked them so much I bought more of them one pair stays where I have been doing my vegging of clones. I also keep a few pair of them and straight blade trimmers for harvesting. Found a 6 pack for 22 that are now 20 on https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 a neighbor and I split a 6 pack last year so I have 3 new ready to go if I need them. A friend told me that the dollar stores sold trim sheers for a buck in the spring, I was able to pick up a few pairs they have their uses but prefer the curved blade trimmers.

First time using the curved blade. I'm a newbie so not too much experience with either. They seem great - easy to trim with!!!

If you know a lefty these scissors are the best thing I've ever used to cut with since I hurt my R hand, 20 years ago. The blue or the orange ones, it's the spring action that helps.

I also found that removing the plastic locking clip keeps it from doing its job at inopportune times like when doing major defoliation's like one done after the 3 week stretch at start of flowering.

[jamesphoto]

Yes I noticed that about the spring lock as well. A couple of times my hand hit it and it locked on it's own. I'll do what you do and just remove it. 👍👍👍

I love getting equipment recommendations. Thanks for passing this along, I’ll try it out during my next trim!
