ive had back luck with my 2 experiences with BHO. don't know if it wasn't purged correctly but it had a nasty taste and gave a horrible headache too.

the only extractions we are alllowed (non licensed) to do here in CO legally are QWET, QWISO and CO2. anything with stronger solvents butane, hexane etc are a no-no. too many f'ing idiots blew up their houses, sheds, garages etc and ruined it for the rest of us
Blast or pour your BHO into IPA or ETOH. The alcohol will keep the solution thin so the butane will evaporate off easier.

I use a back heating pad to warm the solution to aid in evaporation. When there's no more bubbles rising in the solution (I'll add another shot of alcohol at that time just to be sure the butane didn't stop evaporating from low viscosity) I lift up the grill lid and bring the solution inside to purge off the remaining alcohol under the range fume hood.

Butane does such a good job stripping the wanted compounds while leaving the crap behind. That's why I use it. I use IPA and ETOH to help purge out the butane and thus my process isn't super fast, just tweaked over time for quality.

If I don't have butane without ethyl mercapton in it (foul smell) then I do the ice water bubble bags. Fresh, sativa, nug run, 90 or 45 micron, might be my favorite THC product.

Btw nice bud and pics @lukio

yo! hmmm kinda...when i was looking at them earlier i noticed the buds had some colour they've never had before, it could be cooler temps but ive kept everything pretty warm. the buds are caked but they always are with the space monkey. i'll add more red next run, im gonna rebuild my lights for the 4x8 over the summer for next winter. hows your garden, man?

@Madmungo i need to do a proper side but doubt i will. they both smash it imo. i ran SOG in the God tent this time, more watts and the watering was more on point so its difficult to say which is best. both seem to kick ass
The garden's going decently. Still the ever-present struggle with temp and humidity! Starting my first hempy run, using Mega Crop. I've only done ROLS before this, so it'll be an interesting experience.

That Brandy Wine sure is nice looking maybe not a high yielding strain but if the taste and effect is good rock on. Look forward to your thoughts on this one.
