Indoor Cannabis Harvest Almost Complete

in #cannabis6 years ago

Here is the indoor harvest near completion.

I was surprised of the amount of work it took to cut and hang the cannabis to dry. It took 2 men several hours to harvest just one row of four plants. In total, it took just over 3 days. At the time of the pictures, there were 4 rows of nets holding the harvested cannabis. There was a fifth net installed later (not shown) and was filled about half way with the final cannabis material. Part of what took so long was the majority of the cannabis leaves were removed during this harvesting process. Some growers will not remove the leaves and it creates more work for the people performing the trimming.

That is all from today. Please leave comments. Thank you.

It is difficult to get a picture of all the cannabis, but I took pictures of each row.

According to the grower, there a much more difficult task ahead (Trimming). The grower has a machine to perform the trimming, but it does not produce beautifully trimmed product. The trimming machine is only used on the outdoor grows. The indoor grow produces higher quality cannabis and machine trimming will degrade the cannabis bud. To get the best price, all the indoor cannabis is hand trimmed which is extremely labor intensive. A person trimming can go through about 1 to 1.5 pounds an hour. With this much material in this room, it will take about 10 hours of labor!

Wow, awesome content

Patience is the key! Nice looking crop man 👍🏼

Wow, that well, excellent, I can see the great work behind the production of this product highly used today in medicine.
Hard work and many hours-men. Very interesting

That is true. I never mentioned it, but this is intended for medical use. The harvesting and trimming take a great amount of work, but growing is hydroponic can be less labor intensive than soil with the right equipment.
