Bud Washing?
Happy to do so, bro..
Humble-brag alert:
Got thousands of pictures, so it might take me a while.
Ah, here's some
Note the PM in the second pic.
She cleaned up nicely, (but you can't take her anywhere).

The purple widow was almost gritty with particulate VOG.

After a violent thrashing?
Completely undamaged.
Clean as a whistle, no odd tastes added, no Mmmmmm, taste removed.
The smoothness thoroughly disproves that "gotta cough to get off" nonsense.
Jus' hit it, hold it, pass it, and grin.
My palate is demanding.
It's not easy being this "picky", (though I prefer to think of it as discerning.)
That's why I'm skeptical about the bicarb.
Bicarb tastes "soapy" to me, yuk!
Why add something that I then have to wash back off, and with warm water yet!
When I thrashed buds in frigid water, all the capitate glands snapped off.
Of course, that was the goal, at the time.
It's how I make bubble hash.
After that, I dried the buds and we called them "O'Doule's" weed,
Less than half it's original potency.
When handling the full melt bubble, I had to keep dipping my fingers in the ice water, and drying with a towel, or the wax coating would melt and the hash would adhere to my fingers.
So, no 120 F. water for me either just based on that.
I read though "Doc Bud's" threads.
While I agree that a high brix reading usually indicates a healthy plant.
And that a healthy plant can defend it's self.
There is a cognitive dissonance to his cleaning claims.
And, I looked at dozens of his published picture with hi-res shots of a full set of his fingerprints! D'oh.
I read his claims of higher education and cringed when he tried to modify the word "unique".
I'm under-impressed.
But, cynicism is my nature.
In this case, however, I say, it's not just bad advice.
I'm calling FNORD!
Now get out there and prove me wrong with direct experimentation and some side by side documentation.
I honestly, and earnestly, hope that you do.
I will then attempt to reproduce your results and be much the wiser for it.
Aloha y'all,
