The pic below shows the results from both strainings, starting at the bottom of the plate (6:00-12:00) is the results of the 1st screening, the stuff at 6:00 is the 1st bags results, I think this stuff is more like marijuana then hash, but I like it!

Just left and above that is the results from the final bag (25) the stuff at the top (11:00 and 12:00) were the results from the bags in between, the stuff at 1:00 and about 4:00 is from the 2nd batch!

Now here's my 1st question, at 1st each bag was getting lighter in color as I pulled them out but the the last bag (the 25) was more of a dark green/brownish color! is this normal? isn't it supposed to turn more blond with each finer bag?

That depends on how gently you mashed.
Should be enough to knock off the resin without ripping leaf and rupturing cell walls.
Did this with a potato masher, by hand;

Use a blender,? Go to jail!

also how much water do you want to drain from the final product? do you want to leave some moister, or get it as dry as possible? and last how long do you dry it before smoking and storing? thanks all
:jointsmile:
Once it's dry enough to store without molding, the rest is just personal preference.

But, here's a tip.
Get an oven bag.
The kine you roast a turkey in.
Put a couple grams of BH between two layers and iron it!

Seriously.
Set it for "silk" and iron your meds until they are a dark brown, almost black.
Then toss it inna fridge for a while and it peels right off the bag material
The heating de-carboxylates it.
Not only will it smoke better, it is also now activated for ingestion.

Enjoy,
