I'm not trying to be a dick Bob, but I really don't get this whole "cow patty" tech you have going on. It seems like tons of wasted time fucking around with something for no obvious gain when you could have a clean product faster and easier other ways. It also will undoubtedly destroy any delicate terpenes your extract had in the first place. If I remember correctly, you're the guy that doesn't care about terpenes so I guess that doesn't matter to you. But I really don't get all the extra playing around you do with this. I guess I’m glad you are having fun though.That was from a 3' x 1.5' chamber so about 100g per square yard of growing space, 5.66 g/ sq ft to be more precise. I use bottom lighting with LEDs so I get higher yields than most people who only use top lighting.
The point of it is to make the highest quality extract possible. Now if I was a person who wanted a crude product I would use a previously existing method, but I don't so I developed my own superior method. I'm not a lazy copycat who will smoke any damn thing, so I'm willing to put the ectra effort in. If I was going to sell it, I might not bother, but for myself it has to be premium.I'm not trying to be a dick Bob, but I really don't get this whole "cow patty" tech you have going on.

Dude I was reasonably polite to you with my comment and tried not to directly insult you in any way. It’s really sad you couldn’t share a bit of respect for others and have a real conversation. You talked all kinds of shit in your post but it was all talking in circles and insults.The point of it is to make the highest quality extract possible.

About the "delicate terpenes", if I wanted to smoke terpenes I would go to the hardware store and buy a can of natural source turpentine (pinene) or a jug of limonene (gunk cleaner), but since I have some standards in what I'm willing to smoke, I don't. I do not recommend anyone else attempt to make a cookie of washed resin, because it's too complicated for the average stoner and they would undoubtedly muck it up. Stick to spraying lighter fluid, or whatever you do, is my suggestion.
There actually is a lot of terpenes in these cookies though, they're pretty dank smelling. As I said, terpenes are not water soluble so they don't get washed out. There is some slight evaporation of them while I let the resin dry for 24 hours before scraping it out as chips. I take it you don't expose your extract to air for even 24 hours at any point in your process, or dry the bud before extraction, because that's what you would need to do to have more terpenes than mine.
Now here's a 50 gram cookie I made of actual smokable resin, something I'm sure you're never seen in your life, other than in my pics. I made one single cookie instead of two smaller ones this time, it worked nicely. I had to use a larger 118 ml scoop to prop this one up. I won't bother posting anymore pics, because it would be repetitive. I just wanted to show that a large one could be made. It actually simplified things because I got it all done in one shot.
PS, I made an error in one of my prior posts when I said I get a yield of about 100 g per square yard and then converted it to square feet. I said 5 something g per square foot, when it's obviously twice that. I calculated it based on the 3' x 1.5' chamber rather than a square yard. It's actually about 11.11 g/sq ft.
I don't recall insulting anyone. If you took it as an insult then that's your personal interpretation. Why would I have to explain why my tech produces superior product, isn't it obvious that removing all water solubles would be a big improvement? When's the last time you washed your extract? Never, right? Well, that's as far as I have to go to prove that your extract is inferior and very crude. How much terpenes do you think are going to get "damaged" from 4 minutes of microwaving to melt resin chips? You can distill terpenes and not damage them, they aren't fragile compounds. They also all have BPs that are above the 100 C, which my resin never reaches. Resin melts at a lot lower temperature than terpenes boil. You stated it as if it's a fact so the onus is on you to prove it. Now tell us YOUR tech and let's see if I can point out anything that would make it inferior. So far all you've done is agitate, because that's what you like to do, ain't it, Thundercat.Dude I was reasonably polite to you with my comment and tried not to directly insult you in any way.

You claim your technique is special, super complicated and produces the cleanest results. Well that’s just wrong and you are clearly delusional if that’s what you have yourself convinced of. You didn’t bother to try to explain or show us what exactly makes your process better or what terrible awful things you are removing with your tech.
100% I’ve had lots of extracts that are cleaner and tasted better then your microwaved “cow patty tech”.
Microwaving and heating your resin is what is damaging and evaporating the terpenes by the way. But I know you think the small amounts of terpenes in cannabis, that provide smells, flavor and entourage effects, are the same as ultra purified concentrated chemicals you buy at the store lmao.
Really your lack of ability to converse like a normal human being is the worst part though. Because, just like I said before, hopefully you are having fun and enjoying your extracts.
