So far, I’ve smashed a thumb, the outer edge of my right foot, and my fragile ego... the more I dig—the shorter this damn walkway is getting!It’s like work and stuff... I’m now thinking I’ll take this in chunks and take my time. No need for another heart attack in my view.
Just finished a 7 gram squish of Banana Kush and waiting for it to cool to peel off the parchment.
I finely realize, only a short time ago that I can no longer do the things I was able to do just a few short years ago. I still do most work around the yard, mow, weed-eat, pull some weeds but my GF love pulling weeds, yes she is a strange person. Can still move some heavy stuff around but for digging and like projects I hire them out.

I got a RQS Fat Banana in flower I can’t wait to press. Be interested to see how yours tastes, has it got banana terps?

So I pressed the Banana Kush
7 grams @ 185 degrees/1 minute heating time and 3 minute squish = 0.75 gram
I have had most of my store bought between 8 and 18 months, hell I forget about it when I am smoking my grows. Anyway it was a bit dry as I expect all of them to be, you know how they come from the dispensary usually dry as can be. I put a Boveda pack with them but it does not work as well as putting them in with freshly harvest in jars.
@ Lewydeville
Not as much banana flavor as just a floral flavor.

Got a plan!
Just pull out all of the store bought:
Durban Poison 7 g
Cali Orange 23.5 g g
Dark Star 7 g
Banana Kush 13.5 g
As I stated these are between 8 and 18 months old.
Going to squish each separate, test each but probably combine all and make a super Rosin like GT did this morning.
The Banana Kush review, not a lots of banana fragrance or flavor more floral than any thing, very nice buzz.

Finished, and they all work well, I guess. Really to stoned to tell anymore, 
I think I put the 3 Cali Orange in with with first Banana Kush. That's OK, going to combine the all anyway. 8.3 grams from 51 grams from from fairly dry buds is ok I guess.
Puck 1 Puck 2 Puck 3
Durban Poison 7.0 g 7.7 g = 1.045 g, 7.0 g = 0.98 g (blue)
Cali Orange 23.5 g 9.5 g = 1.45 g 7.0 g = 0.8 g 7 g = 1.1 (green)
Dark Star 7.0 g 7.0 g = 1.4 g (orange)
Banana Kush 13.5 g 7.0 g = 0.75 g 6.5 g = 0.69 g (red)
Did not get close up of Cali #3
This post just took me about 1.5 hrs to finish. Man I need to do another.

You’re right. I’m now thinking I’ll hire some young kid to dig this. I’m burnt to a crisp. My back cannot take it anymore.
Man, that’s some squish’n you did right there. It all looks like fire. I’d definitely hit each one separately and mixed. LOL! Awesome!

...and? Are you subtly suggesting I’m forgetful? I smoke a butt-load of rosin so yeah...
But I still made-up a new word.

That should be called a “new knew”.

At your age you get to make up as many words as many times as you want! It's a free pass that comes in every box of velcro sneakers .

From what I've read, they work good as long as you don't hammer too hard. You want to compress out the air pockets and form the puck, not start the squish before you get heat on it.

Sorry to hear
I had my brace on this morning. I have a disk in the lower spine that pops out when I bend forward too much or lean forward with weight. I'm 6'3", so always the one called on to carry or move the EXTRA heavy shit lol Being young and stupid a lifetime of bad lifting habits caught up to me I felt it come out last week when on my knees leaning forward picking strawberries. My option is to make it pop out and then get imaged so they know which one it is, then fuse that sucker.DOWN THE ROAD though. I got some grows and squishin to do first!

I settled on this one, diving in this week (5% off) for $330. The Dulytek DM1005, 3 x 5 plates, adjustable pressure.... impressed with the reviews of the product and the company from multiple places! It's gotta sit for months though, first grow will start in July! lol

I know you are younger than me so you can probably do more.
Have you ever used a tennis ball to massage your back. I use one against a wall, run over the tender areas and when I find a trigger point I concentrate the ball on that area. Get blood flowing to those areas. I have a lot of problems with my back and the tennis ball help bunches.
I just started my third round of the 4 containers, no clear winner yet,

I am sure you figured it out why I posted the colors of each strain.

Well I still don’t have a press yet but wife is gone to work and I found her old hair straightener and put a 1.2 gram nug in there and here’s what I got on my first press ever lol
I’m pretty sure the yield ain’t to good and I don’t even have a way to smoke it unless I put some on top of some bud in a bowl maybe. I just done it for the fun of it really lol
