How to harvest curing jars trichs

[OneHit]

Im sure you guys notice trichs building up inside of your curing jars that are stuck on the sides. How do you guys get to those trichs to make hash? Is there some sort of solution you can pour in to clean, and pour out that evoporates to make hash?

99% alcohol

use 92-94% alcohol clean your jars and pour it into a flat glass pan. when all the alcohol evaps scrape the yellowish stuff up and smoke it. Don't think you'll get much from jars. I use this to make honey oil.

yea like they said really.. and honey oil is fucking mean bro if you haven't had it before definitely try it out

How do you make honey oil from the jars? Got a link?

 

[stumps]

lol not the jars the alchahol. just turning what ever is in the jars to liquid. To date I have never cleaned my jars.

So whats the process, pour the alcohol into the jars, swirl it around, dump it out on a pan, let dry. THen what?

idk, but i prefer just to scrape the inside with a razor blade and get the majority out that way.. then again, you need a jar you can get your hand into. or, just borrow someone's (or your own) kid and have them scrape your jar lol. they have nice little hands that can fit inside about any jar i doubt you will have enough for much hash.. i norm just sprinkle the trichs on a bowl..

I'm thinking your curing jars are too packed.

I only, at most, 1/2 fill a jar for curing.

Once cured, then I'll fill them.

(now, take that with a grain of salt. I'm still a bit new to the whole curing aspect)

yeah its iscopropl that u wana use just put it in your jar swirl it around a bit then pour into a pyrex bowl or you can even use a standard steel pot cook it off on stove just keep eye on it and constantly blow fumes away from element once it has cooked down to a thick oil (it thickens up when cooled down) then u scrape it up with a razor blade heat up the end of a knife on a gas burner or element get a wire or pin to get a little spot on then when knife end is hot u put the spot on the hot knife tip use i little straw for a pipe to suk smk up try it its easy once you give it a go.

I fill my jars half full while I'm still burping them. after the burping stops I fill the jars as full as I can. when this current crop cures I'm going to try and get a vac on the jars for the last three weeks of cure.

 

[BigBudBalls]

cook it off? THC breaks down just over 90F. You will wind up with all the bad stuff and none of the happy stuff.

Alky wash is a much better idea. Put some in, which it around, pour in a dish let the alky flash off.

 

[stumps]

oh I think scrapping would work best if you can. Like I was saying you will not get much out of a few jars. lol I thought putting alcohol over a heat source was not a real good idea. Want to hear the story of the flaming flambe and the lasy with big hair and to much hair spray

 

[OneHit]

Yeah, scraping isnt an option for me, jars are the tomato jars. Budballs what did you mean by flash? I thought you just let it evaporate?

 

[stumps]

flash off is a way of saying evaperate or gas off or the fash point is where it starts to evap.

 

[stumps]

sorry, I was wrong. The boiling point is where it evaps. the flash point is where it flames. fyi it's like 12c

 

[BigBudBalls]

sorry, I was wrong. The boiling point is where it evaps. the flash point is where it flames. fyi it's like 12c

Well flash ponit isn't where it *will* burst into flames, its the lowest temp it will ignite in air.

But, yes, by flash off I mean evap.
(also use the highest % alky you can get 90% or better. Or use drinkable, a nice citrus vodka maybe?)

 

[stumps]

lol, whats what I ment.

 

[OneHit]

Alright cool. Is there a particular reason you all only leave your jars half full?

 

[stumps]

I do half full to finish drying. Then full up for the cure. Half full allows me to move the bud when I burp the jars.
