you're right on the chemistry, theforthdrive.

if you treat the hashwater as a beverage, then you still have all the regular goodies from the fruits of your labor, but u also get 20-25 gallons of ganja water... what would you do with so much ganja water? and this is not "some high" - you actually get very wasted on this 'waste water.'
my point is this this 'waste water' is very healthy (if you're willing to run a clean operation). imo, this ganja water is a better than alcohol (which i already drank enough of, and so i don't do no more), and because we have so much of it - 20+gal/wash - there's enough for many
call it peace water, if you will

i actually recommend doing it with fresh herb and/or trim. the water comes out very clear and it has the best shelf live. it is very potent (and dehydrating).

dig this - make ganja ice.... for your next bubble hashing or for your favorite drink

you're not destrying the washing machine, btw, because of the herb (which will taste almost like spinach and is good in an omlete) will stay in the drum of the washing machine, but you do may want to pay attention to the filters in your system.

have a drink, buddy
