Well sometimes you have those trim sessions that just take forever due to the bud/plant structure and whatnot. That was not the case with these girls. Even though they were both ample in size, the trim went pretty quickly. I forgot to note the amount of time it took 3 of us to get her done (oops) but I would guess around 3.5 hours to get both girls trimmed up and hanging. Nice dense hard as a golf ball buds, decent stickiness and smell.
