Top 5 Post-Harvest Machines for CROPTOBER

Top 5 Post-Harvest Machines for CROPTOBER

Posted by Tom's Tumbler on Oct 17th 2024

For all cannabis connoisseurs, October (aka. CROPTOBER) is the time when more than 80% of the industry's outdoor flower is harvested. As an annual plant, the buds reach their fullest potential once the daylight hours begin to decrease. October is when these plants are officially harvested.

As a full-fledged Post-Harvest solutions company, Python Industries has worked tirelessly to provide the latest and most innovative products to help ensure the successful completion of your grow. We have listed our top 5 pieces of equipment that are highest in demand for CROPTOBER 2024:

Top 5 Post-Harvest Solutions for Commercial Cannabis Cultivators During CROPTOBER

1. Automatic Bud Sorter 

Our number one Post-Harvest solution for 2024 is the Python Automatic Bud Sorter. This machine is made from stainless steel, contains 11 heavy-duty silicon bands, and allows you to customize your sort by up to 5 different bud sizes. 

This sorter is a workhorse, capable of sorting up to 200 lbs of flower per hour. This machine is an excellent option for large grows/commercial brands that are processing large quantities of product. The sorter can tremendously impact your company by streamlining your operation and increasing efficiency, productivity, and production capacity.

2. TTT 1600 HC

If you are a first-time grower/beginner, or processing a minimal quantity of product, then your search should start and end with the TTT-1600 Handcrank. Roughly 10 years ago, this tumbler was the first model that we released. This tumbler will trim 1 pound per batch and up to 10 pounds per hour. It can also be upgraded with a motor as well, for hands-free operation.

On sale at $399 MSRP, this machine is an absolute game changer and a true bargain for all newcomers in the industry. Let us simplify your entry into the international growing community with our TTT 1600 Handcrank!

3. TTT 3000

For the larger and more experienced grower, the 3000 is an incredibly efficient and gentle powerhouse that can solve your trimming and kiefing needs. Every 3-5 minutes, the TTT 3000 will process 6-8 pounds of flower, leaving you with a hand-trimmed quality product that is roughly 80-85% done. With the use of dry ice and our assortment of micron kief nets, growers may also procure high quantities of kief with this machine.

Made entirely from powder-coated stainless steel, this heavy-duty batch machine is built to last for your annual harvest.

4. Python Fresh Storage Bags

After your buds have been successfully grown, dried, cured, and trimmed, it is imperative that you properly store and protect your product until it is ready to be consumed. The flavor profile, the aroma, and the smoke-ability of your flower are directly affected by the method of storage.

Simply place your freshly dried and trimmed flower inside one of our Python Fresh bags and store it in a dark and cool location (preferably somewhere between 55 and 65 degrees). The humidity in this environment should be similarly between 55%-65%. Despite our bags being extremely high barrier, they are also slightly permeable as well. As a result, our Python Fresh bags will breathe on a microscopic level which provides the perfect environment for curing the buds. It also helps to seal and protect your buds from the environment. 

All of our Python Fresh bags are specifically designed to help preserve the trichomes and terpenes on your flower, and protect it from the elements while being stored, transported, or cured. Use Python Fresh to help dial in your Post-Harvest process! (Available in Silver Metallized, Black w/ Window, and White w/ Window).

5. Python Industrial Trimmer

For all major operators that need to process massive quantities for their CROPTOBER outdoor harvest....look no further than our Python Series! The largest of these industrial trimmers is the Python 2100, which can process up to 1,000 lbs of product PER hour. Similarly, our Mighty Python is a smaller-sized version that is capable of processing 500 lbs of product PER hour.

Any growers that are running major operations with acreage, would greatly benefit from the sheer processing power of the Python Series. Complete with 6 stainless steel trimming screens, a 1.5 HP motor, and a variable speed control, each Python industrial trimmer will make quick work of your harvest while still providing hand-trimmed quality.

Additionally, each Python model has an associated Incline Conveyor, which helps to expedite and increase the efficiency of the process. Please give us a call at 800-601-6797 to request a live demo of our industrial Python Series. Come see its processing power in person!

Honorable Mention: Automatic Bud Grinder

Over the last 1.5 years, the fastest growing sector of the industry is in pre-rolls. Pre-rolls have accounted for 4.1 Billion dollars in sales during this period. As a result of this rapidly increasing demand, this stainless-steel grinder is the best solution for your bud grinding needs. Our Automatic Pre-Roll Grinder comes with a 1 HP motor, interchangeable grinder screens in three sizes, and an easy feeder chute for safe feeding of your product.

Simply drop your buds into the side or overhead chute, turn on the grinder, and employ the screen size of your choice. Our machine will grind your buds to the perfect pre-roll consistency based on your sizing needs. Additionally, this grinder can process up to 200 lbs of flower per hour.
