I dont care how long you've been blasting or how much experience you guys have. Ive been growing for 8 years professionally, and i don't throw out bullshit claims to gain some kind of credit. Im simply telling you a strain that i got a 50 % return on.

Ive blasted over 50 different strains, all yielded in the range from 3 grams from a 2 ounce tub to 10-12 grams. But the platinum cookies was something special im telling you.

dont care how long weve been blasting?? between me, twitch, guzias, and fadewawg, we prob got 50+ years experience blasting!!

50 different strains and 2 ounce tubs??? I know/heard of guy that have been blasting for 25 years, done probably 500 strains and do 5lb runs producing 350gs of oil at a time with hundreds of cans of butane at a time, or different systems. even an extremely over rinsed ISO mix with premium bud wouldnt yield near 50%.

ive over rinsed some of the nicest bud in BC and was only able to get 23-26% range... if you know the right guys, and can get nice bud, you MIGHT be able to get past 30% mark yield, but thats pushing it IMO.. 50%.. thats just stupid lol. who do you think youre trying to convince here? half of us are oil kings... the other halfs lives revolve around oil and weed. you can bullshit your friends, but dont try to bullshit us. weve forgotten more than you know in the oil game!!!

and were simply telling you we dont believe it. be prepared for lots of that with your" claims" and no proof, solid weights and some numbers to back it up. if its true, dont worry about we think... you know the truth.

yes, i think a calculation revision would show some different outcome..

kevdog..

most plants look like this bunch: L= leaf , T= trichome

LLLLLLLLLLTLLTLLTLLT

LLLLLLLLLLLTLTLTLLLL

LLLLLLLLLLTLTLTLTLTL <<<<< THAT IS A REALLLLYYYYY REALLYYYY AMAZING YIELDING PLANT

your platinum would look like so @ 50% :

LLLLLLLLLLTTTTTTTTTT

some pictures of the final product would give us a decent idea of what kind of quality you came out with, who knows, you could have had a ton of debris in it, thus getting 50%

and some pictures of the bud close up,

heehe, BS

We are always willing to be educated and that is the reason that most of us frequent these forums. There is a lot of BS thrown out in these forums, so it is common to ask for supporting data, especially for extraordinary claims, which 50% yield is.

If you have supporting data, we would love for you to share, and if you don't, I suspect you will have ongoing problems convincing seasoned extractors who see about half that yield on an ongoing basis. I personally have never seen more than 28.1%, but have heard claims around 30% which I don't doubt.

The other thing is math, as suggested by T. The 28.1% was prime bud, dried to about 15% water content, and reduced to 10 mesh, with all the lumber removed, so the yield would be higher than someone running whole buds. How did you prepare yours?

well... heres tonights project... I might have fucked some numbers up, but I believe I hit 30% tonight!!!!!!!

I used 10 grams. hand grinder (usually coffee grind) so thats 1 difference.

used pure buds, very nice although they were nicer when they were fresher.

chopped them the night before, and put in freezer for 12 hours along with extractor. 2 different thing than normal.

1.5 cans of butane, 2 separate dishes to test.

10 grams in, 2.98 grams out. 29.8% return?! the parchment paper weighs .90..... 3.88 - .90 = 2.98.












an older batch... 14g kief, 14g bud. final output after vacuuming for a while. 5g return from 28g. not more tastier or potent than normal, even though it was made with 50% kief....w tf???







and, regarding the parchment paper messes... I thought this oil around the sides was a waste, thankfully not. if I roll my dabber on a 45 degree angle it picks up and collects all of the resin off the parchment paper eventually, yielding me about .3 to .5 g on the dabber!

Certain strains give better yield due to the various sizes of trichomes. You want that one strain that gives you nice sized trichomes out to the tip of fan leaves.

I think this may be the strain. the oil was way nicer 2 weeks ago when the weed was still a bit fresh and sticky... its dried out a bit since and amazing to see how much the oil has changed within 2 weeks of it sitting in the bag (not sure if the gf forgot to close it or not).

the oil when it was fresh and sticky was very very blonde, the butane that came out of the extractor didnt even look like it picked up anything, but there was def oil there! 14 grams bud in. 2.5 cans butane (2 separate dishes) 25% return. and VERY tasty.

this go around I froze it, and didnt chop it quite as fine. 10 grams in. 1.5 cans. 29% return.

when the bag is done, and im left with nothing but tiny tiny small buds, im gonna weigh, chop, freeze, rinse them and weigh the final result and see if its 25-30% range like the last 2 batches.

Really 8 year now? professionally huh? what does that have to do with making oil? I have been gardening for about 8 years now, how many watts you running?

What the fuck does that have to do with some retarded ass claim of 50%? it is physically and not possible in nature.... unless you did it with a shittyy filter and there is plant material in your oil.

Pictures will tell all, but no pics. we aren't buying sorry
try cannabis.com i hear they have a forum section for bull shit

according to www.dictionary.reference.com
A professional is a person who is engaged in a certain activity, or occupation, for gain or compensation as means of livelihood; such as a permanent career, not as an amateur or pastime.

that is what a professional is, so unless you actually run a real grow house and dont work anywhere else for money then you are just an amateur....

and before you pop off a come back... pictures talk louder then you

Hey Kevdog, pstt, your ignorance is showing my friend.
*whispered*

There are many seasoned blades here and everywhere on the web.

This is why true&#8221; blades&#8221; take many pictures and document everything
Because of bullshit liars like yourself..

No blade&#8221; forgets&#8221; to photograph their work, I pride my work from my pics.

Nobody is going to believe otherwise my friend.
If I yielded 50%.. You can bet your ass I'd have it well documented as it is a huge accomplishment.


I've only been making oil for less than,1 year, and I've sprayed over 100 times, not one of those sprays, was NOT documented.

Hey why not try running it a second time, then combining the yields and take another estimate on the final product. That's how you get 20% or more.

This guy should be on that Hoarders show lol hes for sure a hash hoarder not saying thats a bad thing but damn thats a lot of hash

when I say large amounts. I mean like this. this guy has FUCKING TUBS full of primo bubble hash... im not a hash fan, but I would crawl through a mile of broken glass, give an arm and a leg and my first born for that room!!! these guys are dealing with 100+ lbs of AAA bud at a time. others are 10lbs, a lot are just 1lb. which is still a lot to be experimenting with like adding bubble hash to BHO, etc...
