i'm always seem to be shifting my bud about alot, i have many many bags full of crystals up and down the sides, my 3 grinders (plastic crystal catcher, metal and electric) are always full of crystals and even bud sumwhere. does any1 know the best method of getting the crystals out? my friend suggested a piece of roach and scrape it out, but then 1/2 the crystals get stucks to the roach. any good methods thnx?
for the bags u can use a razor blade or similar if they really do have alot of crystals, then just put it straight in a joint
to get it out a grinder well cant u just tap it really hard over a joint, all mine come out then, and if u mean the green shit that gets stuck to the side then just scrape it out with a key not hard, but i dunno about smoking that since i occasionaly put wax in my grinder

hey what up
its hard to get all that yummy thc from old plastic baggies i tried a razor and licking but it jsut doesnt work, i think you need to put something inside the bad that the thc will disolve in like fat or alcohol then eat that. I never tried cuz im too lazy but in theory it should work
good luck
smoke the green flakes that come out of the grinder, scrape them lightly and wait till youve got enough for a decent hit on a bong/pipe ect, it tastes like hash and it'll fuck u up!

so many options :S my friend sed that he uses a paint brush....but that is even worse lol
by the way a quick question.....is it ideal 2 use a crystal catcher? i mean if it is good bud, will it still taste good without all the crystals???

personally i dont like grinders i like to break my pot up myself if i want to make hash or just smoke crystals i screen it and do it like that. Since i still dont know how to make bubble hash. "crystal catchers" are just smaller version of the big screen which is the old fashioned way of making hash. The pot will tasta the same anyway and its pretty fuckin hard to tell the difference in strength if the pot loses a little bit of crystal, most of the crystals are still on the bud.

i got a crystal catcher but i prefer to use my 1st EVER grinder which ive have to make many mods to its wooden and the crystals fall off it easy.
i wouldnt worry about the crstals in the baggies there too hard to get out for hardly anything
Crystal catchers are good espc when u got enuff for apure joing of crystals
if u get a CC get a POLM Presser

yeah man thats like the exact same one my step dad had. I was confused cuz of your post. its ok that happens often. Hey metal is best over wood cuz its easier to clean but be careful some cheap ones are made from aluminum! and after using one u can notice some of the aluminum has flaked or chipped off! smoking aluminum i think supposovly (ok thats not spelled right) give u alzheimers diesease (maybe that one too) either way its not good make sure to get a good quality stainless steel one.

a razor blade works best, or a knife. once i used an acrylic stick-on nail.

who cares about the ones stuck in the bags thats not enough for much anything anyway, just try not to handle you weed that much and you wont lose crystals, i use an airtight case to keep my herb in so i dont have to worry about crystal loosage
