ha ha....texas sized mosquitos......who INVENTED those little fuckers anyway. :wtf:

[MVP]

Yeah Hound, in the past I've been freezing them wet right out of harvest most of the time. However I have an old bag of dried trim and sugar leaf that I just threw in the freezer a minute ago so I could try to make some Independence Day hash this afternoon. I'll let you know how it goes, maybe even post up some directions here if ya don't mind the hijack...

[Weedhound]

You see now freezing it wet NEVER occurred to me. Instructions would be GREAT MVP.....I'm just now getting into the hash thing and want to try some different ways. :thumbsup:

All things being equal, I'd go for the four bulb. The eight's actually tossing a bit of heat- bulbs don't seem to last as long.
Don't pay extra for the Agrosuns- anybody who's stocking the New Waves will also have the GE Starcoats- work as well or better, and they're cheaper.

Thanks 'zome, heat is the enemy in this space so 4-bulb it is... anyone find a source for 5700K bulbs?

[Weedhound]

Zome!! I LOVE that!!!

Hey again,

Here's a scan of the instructions from my cold water extraction kit I bought from Bubblebags. I gave it a spin with dried (then frozen) trimmings last night but was not prepared for taking DIY photos.

At any rate 1/3 of a paper bag worth yielded about 2 grams of high quality 73 micron hash. I could have processed the herb again and squeezed another gram out of it but since the plant matrial was so-so quality I just made the one pass and called it a night.

I'll post a detailed DIY thread next time... around the end of next month. :detective1:

MVP how long would you say it took you from taking the trimmings out of the freezer to the finished product?

[MVP]

Hmmm, it was about 2 hours from when I took the trimmings out of the freezer until I had run all 8 screens and was done pressing hash. Not exactly sure how long it is supposed to take to dry; I leave it alone for a week or so and that seems fine.

In my setup the first and second bag (220 micron and 190 micron) are to filter out the plant matter from the crystals. The next 3 bags - 160, 120, and 90 micron - are considered cooking grade (or commercial grade) concentrate. The final 3 bags - 73, 45, and 25 micron - produce "full melt" hash. In my limited experience, I feel that the 90 micron bag make nice quality too...
