Just in case there's trouble on the wedding night, Wikipedia said it's good to have a millwright on hand :).

Good, glad I broke my buds up then. Yes I think I will just use a flat press for now.

Okay, the surface area of my bag is 2 inches times 4 inches so that’s 8 in.² times 1500 psi equals 12,000 pounds or 6 tons. I have a lot more capacity than that and since I don’t have any gauges I won’t know when I am there other than by feel. I was thinking of trying to measure the gap with feeler gauges? I am tempted I have to admit despite your warning to just totally squeeze one as hard as I can and see what my yield is like and if it’s edible. I will probably just split the bag but I could try going up in stages checking to see how far I can go. Or I could give it a recommended squeeze and then change papers it’s wrapped in so if it gets funky it won’t contaminate the good stuff. Should be fun!

I may try a dab just to see what it’s like but I hope it doesn’t change my life too much, LOL.

Try anything you can! I’m just giving you helpful hints that I’ve come across in my research! Once I start an adventure like growing or rosin pressing I follow through and research it to the max! I’ve got a good grasp on rosin Pressing now and the concepts behind it! My next step is going to be doing dry ice hash extraction and then press it! Once I get that down I want to then work my way towards separating THCa from pressed rosin and make diamonds!!

But that’s a whole other process so I’ll keep that for my thread!

I certainly appreciate the helpful hints Dutchman and yes you definitely seem to follow things through to the max so I expect to learn a lot about pressing from your new thread.

I have seen videos of the dry ice extraction method and I just find it hard to believe that it is a very efficient way to get the good stuff. I would think it would just get the crystal from the outside of the bud but I could be totally wrong; I look forward to your results. I would be very impressed to see your diamond results also, LOL.

Well I’ve got my bubble bag for dry ice sifting and I’ve located a store within 5minutes of my house with dry ice so I’m close! I’ve just harvested a few autos and saved the sugar leaves but once I finish harvesting everything I’ll do a dry ice run of the sugar leaves and trim to see what I can get kief wise from that!

I’m also going to try dry ice sifting some of the PE auto buds so stay tuned haha! Lots to come and diamonds will be something I look forward to as well!!

Cool, I am curious how much you can recover with dry ice. Should be interesting.
 
I wasn't sure why it was a concern about getting the proper proportion of Megacrop ingredients in each dose but since I looked at my new batch I understand. Here is a photo of the first batch I bought on the right and my second on the left. Looks like two totally different products. I hope they know what they are doing because I haven't needed the new stuff yet so I hope it is as good. The first came from the company in the US and the second was on Amazon.

I’m interested too! Can’t wait to try it out and see how it goes.

I’ve been feeding my clone MC so far and it’s happy as can be! So far I really like it and can’t wait to see how it does all the way through

Wow! That is a good price. That is such a good price I am afraid to ask how you got it because maybe you did steal it, lol. Does it look like the old stuff I have or the new?

I think they we're selling it at half price for the large bag, so when I compared it to the smaller bag price it made absolutely no sense, and bought the bigger one. Mine is the old stuff, v1.
