I have read that you can put your sugar leaves and smaller stems and a little bud in a container with high % alcohol and close it and let it set and apparently it will turn green and you can strain that and let the liquid sit and dry and then that will apparently be some form of hash or something??? Iv seen it done on youtube but im still confused, also im pretty sure i can make tea from them and cannabutter.. but is there any thing else and if anyone has done any of these things give me a few details or something I might need to know.Thanks.

Smoke them? Lmao I have smoked trimmings before. Got me high. I would try making butter with them. You need quite a bit though.

Buy a set of bubble bags on ebay, a 5 gallon bucket and 20 lbs of ice, then make bubble hash from them. It's easy peasy.

So no one has ever seen the alcohol thing before?
I've made it but all you need is high ISOPROPYL alcohol. I used just 91%. Put trim and little nugs etc into a mason jar fill half way with the alcohol and shake vigourously for about 30 secs at a time every couple minites. I do that for about an hour.then I get my glass pyrex cooking pan and strain through a cheese cloth into the pan. Then I let it dry and scrape with a razor. I've actually made gelatin candies with that hash and was pretty good. Dry ice hash is better

An hour??! You're only supposed to do it for like 30 seconds total. After that you are just getting a bunch of nasty clorophyl in yer hash.

Yeah but I didn't want to leave much behind. If I seen trichs still attached I shook it. It was an accident the first time I did it this way

NEVER put Isopropyl alcohol in your body!!!!! I use 151 rum.

I've done it a couple of times; it's called "green dragon". It burns and tastes like shit but it is good medicine. My wife uses it for all sorts of ailments. Economically it's not a good idea because it's a lot more efficient to smoke or vape it.

DUDE YOU WILL FUCKING GO BLIND IF YOU DRINK THIS!!!!! I know your talking about making hash, but this warning needs to be here. I bet there are plenty of people who don't know this is bad for you. Isopropyl is seriously bad news if you drink it!!! Use Everclear if you want to make an alcohol based tincture to drink. I would assume that the alcohol would all evaporate out of the above recipe. It's scary to try something made with scary stuff though.

Mmmm honey oil. From what I was told, you get a cylinder with a gas-release valve and some way of injecting Butane, and can twist apart. It will be pressurized. You fill it with all your trim, close it up, and fill with butane. Shake it up, let it sit.. idk for how long, or if this way also removes the chlorophyl.. I was told it doesn't go green no matter how long. Anyway, you then get two large bowls, one has to be metal. Fill one bowl with ice and water, put the metal bowl on top so it can stay cold. Then you spray the butane mixture into the metal bowl, hitting it on an angle.. The butane immediately evaporates, and the oil within will collect in the bowl. The cold isn't necessary, but will help the honey to thicken and not get sprayed out of the bowl.

Can somebody refine these details for me? Is there a commercial product that would work for the cylinder or do I have to weld something together? I'd like to do it but thats whats stopping me.

All of these are really good ideas, and I thank everyone for the replies. Im really interested in the alcohol hash or "green dragon". But Im very aware that your not supposed to drink rubbing alcohol, makes you go blind. But as far as making hash with it and smoking it.. idk if that would be as bad because you let it set and compleatly dry, from what iv seen alcohol evaparates pretty fast so it seems to me that it would be okay to do but idk, any ideas anyone?

Commercial "rubbing alcohol" isn't pure isopropanol and does leave some residue behind. 151 proof rum or using everclear would be far better.
