Hey guys just trimmed a pound and a half for this dude, when i brought up how much money it was going to he i said 300 for the pound and a half, he proceeded to tell me thats not how much its worth. I trimmed the pound and a half in 17 hours. In everyones opinion what is this work worth. Keep in mind I'm from CO. Thanks everyone!
or you didn't do that good a job. did you get in there and remove the bud leaf? or did you just cut the outer portion of the bud and therefore the eye appeal. can we see a pic of your work? but i would say $350 is fair wage for a shop worker.
Out in Cali we were getting 140-150 a lb but I also sat next to trimmers who were able to trim with a little bit of shaving here and there close to 3+ lbs obviously trimming bigger plants / strains probably closer to 2 lbs in smaller strains in 8 hours. I was lucky enough to maybe get 1 lb in a 8 hour shift...
Yea I’d have to agree here that’s a little bit over a oz a hour which is really slow, outdoor farmers imho wouldn’t even keep you on with that speed
Theres a lot of factors left unconsidered here. Quality of the bud, how good was the trim job, is it fluffy or dense, is there big stems left, etc etc. Several factors will influence the price of bud..
I would say take your states min. Wage and multiply it by the hours you worked and if you got that or more in cash you did fine.
I’m located in MI. 20$ an hour for all jobs. Hand trimming, take down, defoliating etc. they did by weight once and it was 100$ a #
