Both very good answers, thank you.

Next time I was planning to make the hash with fresh trimmings unless the hash would be better with cured trim. Sounds like I just need to use fresh trimmings, then set the hash aside for some time.

Is this why people press the finished hash; to finish off the isomerization of THC? I've put a small quantity of hash into a vice and squeezed the bejeepers out of it, but I didn't really notice a difference.

Interesting tip about the paint mixer. That's how I did it last time, so next time I'll use a big assed spoon. I need the work out anyway!

Thanks!
hankthecat Reviewed by hankthecat on . Should I cure before making hash? Hello all, Do you recommend curing your trimmings prior to making hash? I have a White Widow that I harvested about 12 weeks ago. I put the trimmings aside and the bud into cure jars. I used the trimmings after 3 weeks in my bubble bags, and made some pretty good hash. After about 6 weeks of curing, I started smoking the bud. Two nights ago, I smoked some of the very same bud, and it friggin' knocked my socks off! It has cured into a beautiful, potent, tasty smoke that I am now Rating: 5
