Probably dry sift for the first run . Genetics and strain I's undecidedWhat method of extraction do you plan on using? Dry sift, water bath, dry ice kief? I would imagine the method of extraction as well as the strains genetics would play heavily into the answer. You'd need a lot less of an Afghan kief plant and a shit ton of a sativa dominant, small headed trich type of plant if you follow me. All that being said, I'll have to wait for someone else to give you a hard answer as I've never done a run that big.
Looks great! And a nice speckle to it.I just had 2 pounds processed and got back 90 grams of 160-45 mixed
it still bubbles and melts
slowly making 3.5g temple balls that’ll be put into storage for a rainy day.

Each ball is wrapped in celophane, in a jar on a shelf in the basement.Looks great! And a nice speckle to it.
I’ve made a little collection of mini temple balls myself, also to tuck away for future use.
Out of interest, what are you storing them in?
Cheers mate.
Nice! I had mine in baking paper, in jars in an old turned off fridge. Works ok, paper gets a bit ratty if you open it up a few times though.Each ball is wrapped in celophane, in a jar on a shelf in the basement.
I’m in the U.K. mate it’s extra extra banned hereYou guys are making some incredibly delicious looking hash. One day my state is going to get it's head out of it's ass and allow us to make hash at home too. I can understand not wanting a bunch of noobs blasting butane in the kitchen trying to make shatter after watching a YouTube video but banning even the collection and pressing of trichomes makes no sense. Until then my jealousy will know no limits. You lucky devil's
What u gonna do with the 9 bar? I must admit I would love to see one, for nostalgia, nowadays I think all the bars from Europe are 100gs but may be mistaken.Want to make a 9 bar of hash .
How many ounces roughly will I need ?
Cheers
What state is this? So they let you grow your own, but no dispensaries? That sounds great to me! I hate all these crappy dispensaries hustling shitty shit! My favorite part of this whole new legal weed era, is teaching fellow patients. My objective is to teach my fellow man how to create everything they have available in dispensaries, but better and cheaper! I love getting to be a Mary Jane Consultant. I feel like her Great Grandson, lol!Hopefully someone will be able to give you an idea that has run some bigger numbers, that's a ton of flower to process by dry sift though I know that. I'd sure love to see the finished temple ball or block. Hash is stupidly illegal in my state even though growing is legal, makes no sense. We're lobbying so the law will get fixed next year when they propose retail sales.
Was that your take home after splitting with the processor? Or did you get to keep it all? How was the material? Trim, mids, or dank? It just seems like a really low yield. That ball looks amazing though! All majestic looking like it could tell the future, lol.I just had 2 pounds processed and got back 90 grams of 160-45 mixed

I believe that if you keep it in keif form, it'll last longer. Pretty sure I read that in a book called "Trash to Stash" many years ago. I guess these Temple Balls don't actually press it then.View attachment 5141343
That’s over an oz of full spectrum, delicately washed, from maybe 10ish oz of trim
25% yields? My guess is you’re adding in the 220 as well with those numbers?With good material and done right, I expect 20%-25% yield. So at least 36 ounces.
I’ve made a temple ball once and I would probably do it again, I made one from dry sift but I didn’t do it correctly…. so I suppose I didn’t make a temple ball lol. Buuuut I find that the less I mess with it the more terps it retains, I don’t even seive or microplane it. It comes straight out of bags and dried thin on coffee filters in the fridge, after 2 days I break it slightly just by manipulating the paper underneath after 3 days it’s smokable and after 5 its dry n goes in jars which are stored in fridge for quick access or freezer for long term. And my long term is like 3 months max, I wish I could be saving it for Rainy days but I prefer it to flower.I believe that if you keep it in keif form, it'll last longer.
