Sweet! Excellent!

Please tell us how it turns out.
Turned out great your jacks kitchen is my best pressing strain right now, I did 14 grams of boo x ww at 170 and blew the bag cuz I wasn't paying attention ... Anyways I got 1.3 grams off that I coulda reran in another bag but not enough hours in my day to be chasing mediocre rosin that 1.3 will be fire boo x ww is very good for flower rosin, potent. Jacks kitchen I did a 28 gram press at 185 didn't blow the bag got 5 grams and put it back in at 200 got just under 1 gram of dark

yeeehawww no blow outs shout out rosineer im rocking your gear! Chottle tech for the win. Only 1” sleeve needed for 5gs. Stress test 3 tons no blow outs. No plant material in rosin.

Its MAC 1 and wow 180F for it to ooze this much at that temp and being super old and dried out, impressive. Ive pressed this few times before its from the store.

If I get any results like this harvest time oof going to be happy. Of course light colored rosin this is dark for being over a year old. It smells and looks so dank though.

Week 9 started today hoping to chop end of week 10. 2 weeks from now. What yall think? At the worst could be 10.5-11wks. First time running it as clones few different variables so idk.

Looks like it needs much more time but this part of part riped quick last time but had side lighting.

Wow auto age restrict thanks alot. People usually dont watch it since you have to sign in I can only speculate why but that sucks. I get views when its open to anyone.

Whats weird is my two bigger clones in 2.5x5 look done end of this week but the three 2x2 clones look like they need 2 weeks possibly 3. They were all flipped same time. Any one know why?

The bigger tent has a more shallow canopy whereas the 2x2 clones are tall bushes with lots of tiny larf buds and larf that looks like is taking longer. They may be a little darker lighting than the larger clones.

Im just waiting in larf area right now which people prune off which I tried asking if youd be chopping early if so. Mother ran for 11 wks but switched half a week to a week later.

Damn I guess I summed it up, 11 wks or 10.5 so about 3 weeks to go. How the heck I came up with 9 wks is beyond me. Its what I get but at least Im pumpin out the most bud I possibly can. Oh wow 11 weeker.

So I have a chance to freeze the wet trim this harvest and make bubble. Otherwise I got a mini tent 1-2 oz to practice with next time. Canucks grow said his dries in like 3 days as chunks let alone if you micro plane it.

I know theres a few good washer machines but which one comes with an upgradable hose or are they a standard size fit? Eager to try this out.

I only will yield up to 30% or 20% last time and only getting like 4gs dry sift rosin. Wonder if itd be higher washing it.

Well actually its idk. I see people use an actual washer which is too much. I think ill hand wash in 5 gal buckets but seeing this guy use 20 gal bins which sound nice for a full size harvest like 1 ib and a half.

Chop friday half my gardens done. Kinda glad half aint so I can split the work into two mild pace work days.

How long would it take to wash 12oz? What about 24? Just curious. Id have my product immediately. 12 hrs. Im still fond of it I dabbed live resin for weeks and just stopped to dab it and then same thing bud with dry sift rosin.

It was pretty much almost as good. I did have a stoner relevation of why its better than flower rosin but ya.

I loved the sift rosin it was more zoot and dabbed almost as clean as live resin or bho. I just already planned this but dont get me wrong just started a micro grow to have a couple oz to play with.

Might even mess around and make life harder on my self and plant a new strain keep the search going. I just want to see some return for a few runs as much as possible.

48hrs from chop. So would you freeze at chop and do the jar test or does it matter if its fresh frozen or dried weed? Thinking of doing an eighth or should I do 7gs? Does air dry make live bubble pointless or will it still be significantly more terpy?

I say nothing to lose freezing it at chop when washing its even preferred but ya.

Thinking its best to jar test it and make plans next harvest. I guess ill show pics and ask if its good. What do you do with it? The test hash? Is it just better off trashed or is it worth trying to see how it dries? Knowing itll be a tiny bit.

Gosh damn cant wait to do like 2-4 runs and welcome in wy kiki also by beloved t h seeds that ive only heard good things about.

pink panties x banana candy krush

which the banana they said yields double than usual hash out put and who doesnt like banana terps. God the rosin if it tasted like banana. I might just buy that very strain.

I know breeders market but ive never seen anyone say that about their strain.

I also got alien gorilla and sherbert gorilla by big head seeds. Yup between these three I think will be my next keeper.

Hard to sit on beans!!

So 20% of 18gs is an eighth wet weight of fresh weed? So I should use that for jar test? It looks like a quarter oz. About to do 10gs? Is that good?

What do I do exactly, freeze it while I get a jar of Ice water? Swirl it for a bit… Then show yall? Let me know I dont want to waste too much weed even though I got like 12-16oz right now.

Ok I see the advice already given while back I will do 20gs and test it. I also looked it up. Just feeling the bag all crunchy of fresh frozen is insane. I thought it would feel like trashing weed unless it all went well.

To my surprise it is the start of a journey Im already liking.

That's a neat idea. I have recently been playing around with fresh frozen then freeze dried bud, then rehydrated a bit. Tastes and smells like it's still on the plant. Not the familiar taste of cured weed. I haven't used my press in awhile but I'm looking for some free time to see how that goes with that material.
