The big chunk is 850 mg of pretty pure blonde hash from the 120 and 72 micron bags from the first wash. The other 2 chunks total about 850 mg of mostly green hash from the 25 micron bag from the first and third washes. The second wash only yielded very little...mostly from the 45 micron bag which I combined into the first chunk. The third was I filtered with the 25 micron bag only as a catch all. Time will tell if they have any kick to them.
I was really surprised by how little yield I got. It was also a lot harder to collect than the videos I watched. I think I may have started flushing this plant a week or 2 early and these first colas the trichomes may have been pretty clear still.
Today I harvested my 3rd cola. 23.1 grams. It does appear more mature but the trichomes still seem pretty clear. I'm not really seeing any amber trichs at all.
I chopped branched each day of the last week and on 01/09/2021 I chopped the remaining. I think it was quite a haul for just 1 plant without training. I bought a tcheck2 device for testing potency. I only checked a small bud off the main cola and it read a modest 11.86% THCa. I trimmed and froze most of the buds but kept 1 oz for curing. I tried my had at bubble hash but it was a whole lot of work with very little yield. Unfortunately, I didn't check the potency of any of that. The rest I made dry ice hash / kief. The results are shown below and not at all what I was expecting. The highest potency came from the 160 micron bags.
