Almost half way there already. And more there then I've processed yet. My guess is gonna be 18 total oz, you don't count the trimmings right?

Edit: I haven't bother weighing the trimmings

I never weigh trim, I just use it for butter or oil.
Yea I plan to press it with heat plates. I actually plan to completely switch over. Press buds and all.

Edit: just didn't want to be the only one not weighing it when giving weight totals.

Some people do, I don't see why. just mix it down with everclear and let evaporate or low heat with a boiler.

Pressing it does ok, drinking alcohol or ethanol does a lot better.

If you do press the bud, keep the plant material for edibles. Butter is super easy to make.

I've done a lot of research on rosin pressing and you won't be able to talk me out of it that easy hehe. I plan to make how to or at least progress threads on it. As I have shown LED is viable I know I can for sure show rosin pressing is also super viable. And yea I did plan on using pressed material to make edibles as I've heard you don't get it all. But I'll be using a 20 ton press with dual aluminum heating plates

Man my new setup I feel like is never gonna dry! Lol at this point prior it would be almost dry, and its still pretty wet.

I would press buds and extract trim. Then use the left over bud for edibles. It is just the nature of the different parts, the bud has a high density of trichs whereas the trim does not.

I'm not bashing pressing or you doing it, on the contrary, I encourage any practical use of every part of the plant.

For me it is medicine, therefor, I see it as life and just as necessary to survival as water.

Yea well I planned to press the trim into patties somewhat before heat pressing to make it more dense. Granted I won't get the same yields but I should be able to run large amounts at a time

Can you include this process + pictures in the journal? I'm interested to see how this all works and comes out in the end.
