(Got three dogs an a cat)
Though you could prolly use ice water to float the trich stalks and cystoliths off as a last step before pressing.I might consider that, it could have a calming effect on the harshness of the smoke. Sorta a water cure.
That it does.
Gets rid of house dust too.
Lotsa crap sticks to da goo.
Also rinses out water soluables like bug poo.I don't have "bug poo" in either of my grows. I grow indoors and believe in good hygiene.
Not a fan of bug poo, but now that I grow outside, I get aphid "honeydew" and gecko pee as well.
Comes with.:).
Have to rinse and dry before I trim da buds.
But, sunlight got no greedy meter, yah.
And indoors, Argh! Got problems.
I'm getting whitefly poo all over my indoor veg. girls lately.
Friend gifted me some "trojan clones":(
Drat!
Outside, they have natural predators and wind.
Inside, they laugh at nopeststrips.
Threw a big fan at 'em and I herd them toward the exhaust fan when I'm in there.
Got the soil surface covered too, but they just keep breedin.
And I try to avoid any kine spray, so., what to do?
You have any wisdom 'bout dem buggahs?
Da tiny kine, but almost definitely white fly

"Some of those caps are water clear.They from the bottoms of the leaves, and they drop off first. Since playing with the eyeclops I've realized that the trichs from the bottom of the leaves are longer and usually bent so they break off easier.
"
Aha!
Makes sense.
I usually find the tiny clear caps in da bottom sieve.
They make a very blonde, almost white, hash.
I assumed it was a higher grade sifting. Woohoo!:jointsmile:
Hence my disapointment.
The high was "thin", short lasting, and lacked "character" .
I think I just learned why. Mahalo nui!
Now I'm wondering if my shiny mulch will reflect enough light to cloud the shaded caps up some.
The clear ones are un-affected by UVb.
Least, as far as I can see.
Once they are ripe, it no take long.
Dey brown right up, then Cheech yer Chong.:stoned:
OK. Gettin' too ripped to post now.

Weeze

Re: Whiteflies
I can't see that pic well at all. Actually looks more like a larva-creature on my monitor, but I'm guessing that's actually a winged adult.
Know ya don't like sprays, but Volck Oil Spray was very effective against lotsa critters like that. Used to use it in the greenhouse, and as a leaf wash / shine for decoratives. (Talking 30+ years ago. Volck is obviously a petroleum product, and I don't see it mentioned any more. Maybe some side effects have been discovered since then...)
Worked well on weed, too, but I never used it within 30 days of harvest or got my buds wet with it- leaves only. Also, treated plants become very sensitive to light and heat. Saw some inexperienced applicators really do some epic damage that way. Just a thought...

But more germane is the bad news my research turned up.
The best control is natural enemies, and just about anything you can use on weed is harder on the predators, than on the prey!
Makes it counterproductive.
Only harmless control I saw was yellow sticky traps.
They don't do much damage and they do indicate when a plant is in trouble.
When one of the gals gets "out of sorts", they mob her.
Guess nothin's all bad.
Oh, yeah!

Not on the usual list, but...
Thought about oleoresin capsicum? That deters a lotta creatures. (Also why Hermie so often cries after sex...:() Exposure to O2 breaks it down, typically the carrier is an ethyl alcohol / H2O mixture with a propylene glycol-type food-grade preservative. Just throwin' stuff out, here...

Pepper spray, eh?
Bet I could homebrew that from these "too hot to even handle", Hawiian peppers!
Hmmm.:detective1:
They are attracted to yellow leaves.
Perhap I could use yellow light to attract them to the exhaust vent.:toilet_claw:
I'll trade ya some slightly used starfish brown emitters for some Sunburst yellows.;)
Weeze
