i want to make hash, from my girls leaves

hello harrdon
thanks for your thoughts mate, i have tried oil it was realy cool, and yes i was smashed before i relized what was happerning lol, i am just a little worried about chemicle contamination, both the hash making methods posted here contain no chemicles at all, somebody posted an add on overgrow on how to make a tumbler, i think i will go for this option first, i can build most things very compedently. i am still interested in the bubble bags, i just wanna taste the stuff before i shell out nearly £200 on a good hash extraction system i think i can get hold of some quality screens localy, i am not being a tight ass i just wanna test it first, another question .... is hash like the solid dark stuff that can be in the uk. we call it solid or rocky, or black, it smells and tastes far sweeter than weed, it is very hard and we have to burn it to crumble it into a joint, is this hash or is this something different. peace to you

hi guys,
thanks for your patience, i have only been useing this comp for a little while so i have yet to learn what to do , i could not see the posts i was writing so i wrote them again, so sorry again. i am facinated with the different ideas you guys have give me so thanks, i think i will go for hash, oil is great i love it and will do it again sometime, but i just wonder a little about the possability of chemicle contamination, i think once in a while is great, i recon if i done oil regular i might lose the buzz i have with my weed, allthough i will make hash i dont wanna use all my stash, i need to smoke around half ounce a week, this keeps my pain level at a level thats tolerable, and harrdon that was a brill desciption of oil making, have you heard about the other method of extraction using acitone as a substitute for alchol, i am not knowledgeable on this matter i just remember reading somewhere that acitone works in a simular way, it also evaporates 100% without added heat, i know it is possible in the uk just to walk into boots the chemist and buy acitone but i dont know about alchol, if you have any knowledge on this method i am sure it could prove handy. thanks and peace to you all

hey man, how are you? all you need from the boots is surgical spirit....that's what they call it in the uk....it is somehow impossible to find pure alcohol in the uk as it is illegal to buy something like like...i think they have banned it's sale from the pharmacies because there were some cases in which people would buy it not for injuries but to drink it....as for acetone i am not sure about that....although it evaporates as fast (maybe faster) as alcohol it is a different chemical from alcohol.....surgical spirit is what you need...i am going to make some oil as well....take care :)

if you are making green dragon (pot oil...hash oil is totally different) and are concerned about the chems, use everclear. it comes out not quite as nasty as rubbing alcohol and you can drink it safely. if you want to spend the time and a few bucks a much more worthier product can be had using butane or acetone. all the info for most recipes have alreadey been posted and easily searchible...

then there are those awesome bubblebags...

hello and thanks again guys,
i wish i was more caperble of using this computer, i am still learning, so please bare with me, i have asked this question before and it might have been missed, does anyone know if the solid hard black stuff i can get easily in the uk is propper hash, we call it black, rockey, solid, we burn it to crumble it in a joint, its sweet smelling and does not realy tastes like weed atall, its a nice smoke with a slightly different high, however i have never got blasted on it, is this something else as my weed is ten times the strengh of this, i am puzzeld lol

hello everybody,
i have finerly bought my resin extraction system, i purchased the 3 bag bubble bag system, i also made tons of ice and bought some just in case i did not have enough, i will attempt to make my first lil bit of hash this afternoon,
i will be using about 5 ounces in total .... half lil bud and half best tip leaves, i will post pics of the entire process step by step....

i am shiting myself guys as i dont wanna wreck this stuff so if you can help us along the way it would be appriciated...
i hope in some way this will benifit all that rely on cannabis as a medicle aid, it is my intension to find the medicle qualitys in hash.. stand by pics very soon,.................... peace to you

Hey Chappie if you take a 5-gallon bucket, cut the bottom off and then slide it over the 3 bags you just purchased. It will protect your bags during the mixing time.

zandor, thanks man, i have just compleated my first extraction, it went wonderfully, it was so easy after you guys told me what to do, so thanks very much, i finished with about just over 1/8th first grade and about 1/16th in second grade, i am gonna siphon the bucket tommorow when it as totaly settled, i am convinced i will find some of it in there as well,
i am well chuffed and totaly high, this is a fantastic smoke, i am realy pleased, I will post these pics tomorrow as i am now well smashed and got to sit and chill out. peace to you.

do your mixing in the bucket only...then run through the bags. no sense running your mixer inside the bags where it can easily get nicked or worse. the same results happen when mixing your greenery, ice and water in a clean bucket then pour into the bags waiting in a 2nd bucket.

thanks guys,
here are the pics as promised of the entire process, tell me if i could have done better in any way, i am well pleased

the first pics show the various bags being installed in my 25 ltr bucket
the orange bag was the finest so that went in first

the second bag was red that also has i fine screen

the last bag was the green bag

we then put the weed in the ice cold water and gave it a gentle stir with a wooden spoon to help get it all in the water, this floated easily so i had to stir it
