So much easier looking at plants in veg when not toking than looking at flowers hehehehehe
I can feel it already. Holy crap what did you put in that pipe?! LolDon't worry Hamish, I'll toke for both of us.
C'mon, amigo....those announcement are expected to have some pho-to-graphic attachments.Cut down a SSDD, with the last run on the non keeper finishing up in a couple of days.
You need something like this: http://www.asia.ru/en/ProductInfo/1283309.htmlSo I decided to make some bubble hash this weekend as my freezer was filling up with trim. It's drying right now and I'll have to take a picture of the two piles. Both are a beautiful blonde color, the one will certainly be full melt, the second pile might be close but it is of lower quality. Still have a couple more bags in the freezer but my arm was getting tired.
Making ice water hash is a labor of love for sure. I only do dry ice extractions anymore because I'm usually just infusing an oil with it. It's SOOOOO much easier though, if I were making some to smoke I'd probably use dry ice. The percentage point or two you might lose in potency is more than made up for in ease of production, and you can enjoy it immediately instead of waiting days/weeks for the ice water hash to dry.So I decided to make some bubble hash this weekend as my freezer was filling up with trim.

I've been interested in trying the dry ice method. I should give it a go. I'm just a huge fan of high quality ice hash, back when I played with bho and iso, I quickly found my preference was for the ice. Eta I'd have growers back in the dark ages and early medical days give me their trim, and they were always surprised of what I'd pull outMaking ice water hash is a labor of love for sure.

All valid points. Ive done a lot of research on the subject. I take every safe measure I can. In fact I have gave up on it for a while because it was wrecking my judgment of smoking buds. Top shelf buds taste like cigarettes.I liked your comment, but do disagree on BHO.
Different stokes, and preferences so I mean no disrespect. I wouldn't want to ban it or anything, as I know some people really do get comfort and relief from it.
I've vaped the dabs and I've seen some amazing, but a lot bad. Plus I've got some grips with how some people produce BHO.
Doing stupid things such as extracting BHO in enclosed spaces (in the last year in my area I know of 4 such incidents, one can easily Google for them) only gives it a bad name for those being responsible. The media wrongfully goes on to report it's the "crack" of cannabis, not understanding apparently how cannabis works.
I have concerns on what sources people are using for Butane, and the impurities in it. I take issue with how it may still contain gases, in addition to the types of equipment people use (PVC!?!?). But overall, it just Isn't for me.
Don't get me wrong, I've done done it before, I'm sure I'll do it again, knowing who/how it's been done. I'm interested in the CO2 extraction techniques, having enjoyed some.
At the end of the day, I simply love flowers. I don't want (nor need from a medical point of view) to get such a tolerance and be so medicated that only dabs will do. I've seen it happen to some of my stoner friends. If it works for someone, and it's safe (reasonably, smoking isn't good), I'm all with what ever works for them. Do your thing.
Do yourself a favor, go on YouTube, look for Frenchy Cannoli's channel. His tutorial vids were a game changer for me. Incredibly detailed if you watch all episodes on hash making. I follow his method to a T. Incredible terpene loaded solids yum.You have one Mad? Yea my current means are labor intensive, I'm curious as to the quality of the end product though. I'll get a picture today, hopefully it is easier to handle as it is unbelievably sticky. I still have more to get out of my bags too.eta thanks Mad, I'll have have to look into it
