Lady Cannafan's Seedsman Comparative Grow Banana Jealousy ViparSpectra KS5000

I did an early squish of some buds yesterday with the Rositek Rosin Press (sponsor Dabpress) from the first plant I cut down. I loaned my vape out and I'm waiting on a vape report.
(I was also practicing some photo techniques while I was at it.)

Dried and partially cured. I haven't tried frozen yet. I have a bunch of trim frozen, not sure how that would work...yet.
I noticed @Mycelium Farmer posted a bunch of videos, I still got to view on fresh frozen pressing
Not sure what the difference is my self

I've set myself to get through his journal over the weekend, I definitely would like to see any on pressing fresh frozen if he has them.

 
Fresh frozen or dried & cured?
@Joe Brewster, I guess I need to stop putting off making bubble hash. LOL Although, I might try it with one puck just to prove what happens. For myself and my own curiosity.

I found this info this morning:

WHY PRESSING ROSIN FROM FRESH BUD IS A BAD IDEA​

To extract rosin from flower, the flower needs to have a relative humidity between 55% and 62%.

Fresh bud has a much higher humidity level. It contains far too much water. When you press fresh bud, you get a watery mess that’s near impossible to scrape off your parchment paper.

It also smells bad and when trying to dab it, it will sizzle on the nail and have a fresh chlorophyll flavor.



HOW CAN I GET MY FRESH BUD READY FOR PRESSING?​

The easiest solution is to let it cure and dry, just like you would to get it ready for smoking. If you don't want to bother with that, just letting it dry until it reaches a relative humidity of 55% to 62% will drastically improve your pressing results.

Oftentimes, people who ask about pressing fresh bud are actually looking to get live resin. Doing this requires the use of solvents, but it is possible to get the same live resin taste without the use of solvents.

To do that, you need to first freeze your fresh bud, then make bubble hash from it and, finally, press that hash to get solventless live rosin.
 
Update on the Lois clone that went through a hard time out there.

She's quite tall now, not spreading out much, but looking healthy. I spray her with neem oil mix once per week to control the leaf eating critters.

Also, I put the pot from Annie, after harvesting the useable buds, outside for reveg. She's starting to grow funky looking leaves, and that's usually my first sign that it's working.

Try to use short specific names, long names are hard to search. What is the photo about?

I didn't realize that function was available until recently - makes perfect sense to me
I often drop into a thread on page 420 and have no idea what the grower is showing in the pictures

:thanks:
