Grandpa Likes To Squeeze Stuff: Solventless Extracts, Rosin, Pressed Here!

also a good thing as washed buds are better. I also use citric acid at the wash, then baking soda, then rinse.
I used fresh lemon juice during last years wash and baking soda. I need to get myself ready. Looks like most of #8 is coming down later today/tonight. Going to be a lot of pressing with that one!!!
 
Are you pressing green wet weed or do you dry and cure..never done this .
als, is there a d ifference between this and oil extracted using ethanol?
Cured is the best 62 Rh coming out of the jar .
Rosin is pure and oil is done with ethanol.
 
I'm planning on saving all of my next runs and this currents cut off and waste. Going to freeze it all and buy one of those bubble bag machines and set of bags. Get me some sweeeeet bubble hash :) all I need is ice and water. Oh and a hell of alot of freezer space....... Gonna have to be takeaways haha.
 
ive learnt you cannot press leaf matter .. u will get poor yeild and alot of bad flavor.. i also think it hold backs the rosin
in the bud from coming out of the filter bag.. i like to press well trimmed somewhat cured bud to start with 10 days maybe but the 6 to 8 weeks cured wow flavor.. yield goes down a lot too..
Yeah I usually sample my grow after the 2 week burp

Great minds think alike Moony! A bubble machine is my next purchase next week along with the micron bags. I really want that hash rosin especially after watching that video that was linked last week with the 20g hash smash
 
Here is the recipe, and you can scale it up or down based on how much you need:
5g citric acid
500ml distilled water
10 pipette drops dish soap
Mix well and spray, preferably first thing in the morning before the sun will be on the plant. If not, late in the day so it can evaporate before nightfall but not burn in the heat of the day.
Make sure you get the whole plant as PM can hide between the buds and the branch.

how much dish soap would u use in ml... or how much for 4 gallons ? i got my critic acid today amazon.ca was fast..
rain and cold here all day dark clouds.. should i spray now?

The dish soap is just to make the citric acid stick to the plant . 300 drops in 15,000 mL a table spoon full .

300 drops what kind of measurement is that ?

west im not up on american measurements im canadian and know ml.. or ml per how much water but not in drops..

lol
 
10 pipette drops per 500 mL ro water
now West... a pipette can come in many different sizes ... .1ml per drop or 5 ml per drop etc so not much help
im sure they got micron droppers to 1 x 10 -6power.. 22 microns size of a ave bacteria .. virus .4 microns and smaller..

I wouldn’t think the soap exact amount would make a difference . I spray dawn dish soap to run bugs off from the outside perimeter of my grow room.
The pipette I’m not at all sure of what size I was learning with you if I ever get to grow outdoors. Sorry @InTheShed has the resources for this he’ll be back tomorrow.
 
So I was puffing on this while doing some pre-chop trich check on a Sexxpot plant. I will be running this again but inside next time. This was an important plant because I'm trying to find the right cultivar to help my wife with various ailments. She got bombarded with pests and mold over the past week. I am trying to give her as much time as possible to mature for me but she may be getting chopped tonight.

Not in the rain but cloudy is better. That way it will evaporate naturally and the sun won't burn the wet pistils. And WH has you set for the amount as I trust that man's math!

:thanks:

The downside to too much soap it it will coat the pistils to heavily and brown them. I haven't tried any of the natural surfactants because I don't have them on hand. :)

well im Canadian still not up on these measurement .. i sprayed up my plants today

i used 50 mls of dawn dish soap in 15 liters water 3 mls per liter.. was over night room temp water cl evaporated off

then i added 160 grams of critic acid anhydride.. about 10 grams per liter..

sprayed about 4 liters per plant.. also did some other garden plants..

didnt measure the water just a guess 16 liter in 20liter pot..

then found a little bud rot cut off..

plants seem ok

cheers and thanks..

adding some pics later ..

Perfect!
I hope that rot doesn’t progress any further.
 
I'd say less soap next time. Mine definitely doesn't bubble!

i got to ask but did you stir vigorously ? i stirred vig with my hand in bucket .. the critic acid anhydrous did
not dissolve well and need to be stirred into soln.. makes tonns of bubbles too...

didnt see much soap on the plants photos show a bit of foam.. i was think maybe not foammy enough to keep
on the leaf long to get the pm..
