OK, well, here are some pics of the hash/kief made from the dried trimmings from the plants in the JOURNAL OF A MADMAN thread. I might add more pics from future threads in here, not sure.


Like I said, the trimmings were dried, then rubbed onto this t-shirt-making type of silk screen. Working with a bit at a time, it is amazing to see how much kief you get from it. Using a smooth, non-porous surface like marble or glass is important so that you can SEE the kief and so that you don't lose any.

More pics...

One VERY IMPORTANT step in this process is to draw a picture of a cannabis leaf in the kief. if you do not do this, your kief will not compress properly and will lose it's potency in a matter of days.

Here are the rest of the pics.

The kief is gathered, put into a cellophane baggie (like a cigg baggie), and rolled up. It is taped well and then wrapped in paper and taped again. Then, it is dipped in water, compressed with a hammer or book, and then put in the oven for a few minutes (about 10) on a low setting, while keeping your eye on it, of course. THen, you have pressed kief. If it is cooked it a little more, it will get stickier and turn into the hash you are used to seeing...I think!

Why is Herb Illegal?

A killer, you keep workin, and working, and working and they keep
taking, and taking, and taking. They'll throw you a few little crumbs
they'll give you a home, a car, a television, a vacation. Someday you
may even have a bank account that you're scared to lose.

I use paper coffee filters for the last filter, squeeze all the excess water through it till its dry (ice method), then I stick the wrapped coffee filter under the leg of my heavy desk for half an hour. It comes out looking like a block of original, authentic hash.

simple as that heh,i think this is what i will be doing with all my excess trim now,i used the isopropyl method for the leftovers of my last grow and wasn't very impressed by it,left a foul taste,in fact i still have it,was that bad

my technique is a little different...

but whatever makes the sticky...

~blank_21~ Well, yes...the trimmings should be dry. This makes them easier to break into smaller pieces and therefore brings more surface area in contact with the screen. They are simply the smaller leaves that are covered with trichomes, NOT the large fan leaves...those are discarded.

Pic
On left are large fan leaves ready to be discarded. Right is smaller trichomey trim.


Trim is placed in bottom of the dry box to dry, then placed in baggies. Baggies are put into freezer for a couple hours before making the hash, which makes the trichomes stiff and easier to break off when they are rubbed on the screen.


~FreeVenice~ You must have me mistaken with someone else. I don't believe I have ever mentioned Hash Oil before...but I'm surely interested in it.

~atsar~ Yep, simple as that...for this method. There are always trade-offs though with any method. For example, true bubble hash supposedly produces the best and most pure results, but requires much more work. This method is simple and easy, but you will get a less pure hash.

What this means is not that the hash will have less trichomes (THC) in it, but it simply means that there will probably be a little more green matter in the hash as opposed to extraction by another method. But if you think about it, when you smoke normal bud...you are smoking LOTS of green plant matter...so that is MUCH less pure. Take your pick, ya know.

Regarding the isopropyl alcohol method, I've heard that if it has such a bad taste, that might have resulted from attempting to cook off the alcohol too fast or not letting it fully evaporate. I dunno. That's too bad that you had that result, though, man. Bummer.

~Scarlet Sky~ So, what method is that? And where is the end result. I'm sure you don't just mix summadat in your tea...

Hash is sexy.

Left side are large fan leaves, which will be discarded. Right side is the smaller leaves that are saved for hash.

What did you use to rub it into the silk screen with? your hands or something else? This looks really interesting, and I'd love to try it. Oh, and what does dipping it in water do for it if it is sealed in plastic and tape? does it just make it easier to compress?

postmandave & shov...'preciate it.

Thanks guys.

Hey TheGanjaKing. It is in plastic...tape...and then paper. You dip it in water so the paper doesn't catch on fire when you heat it.

Oh and use a latex glove and just use your hand to rub it in. You don't need the glove...but...you know.

I was wondering Fog if you didn't have the plastic you would find on a cig pack could you use a sandwich bag or somethin like that?

Damn, I've been slacking. Sorry, guys.

~Cornelius & Weed4Life~ No doubt.Thanks! PLEASE post pics on here when you do it! Thanks, again.

~c of green~ I dunno about that, man. I'm curious myself as to whether it is better to make hash from dried or wet leaves. NOT using this method (this method requires dry to be most effective), but doing bubblehash, for example. If I have to make a thread with a poll about it, I will, but WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK? If you are going to make bubblehash, freeze when wet and make or dry then freeze then make??????

Hey, c of green, did you ever post that method of yours? I wanna see the gym shorts! LOL

~orangeman~ Sorry, yes, I'm sure you probably could...but, c'mon man, you can find a cellophane somewhere, they are on packs of blunts too! They just seal better than sandwich bags. Cellophane, you just roll it up, flick a lighter and press it while it's hot...sealed! Voila.
