Sexy buds there nightballa. How much longer do they have?




Nice stuff rooster!

What strain are they?

Im not sure what they are, I started them from seeds from a friend of a friend. I started out with 8 good ones but 4 turned out to be male so out they went and I have these 4 left. I have lots of clones of them and they are doing good too.
I will get more pixs when I get them under the 1000 and spread out the brances more.
Thanks,

backwoods home brewed iso

backwoods home brewed iso

as promised, heres a fast way of turning scraps into pure melt gold...all you need is a few ounces of finger leaves, a few pints of 91% isopropyll alcohol, and about 5 minutes...as you can see, all my gear is set up waiting for this old man to get busy...

notice the first picture the frost isn't on the jar...just wait...
I grind the herb up so it's fairly fine but not a joint grade grind, a bit more like bong grind consistancy...
add the herb to the half gallon jar and toss it in the freezer with the 2 pints of alcohol...let 'em freeze for about 1/2 hour...don't get technical, it's ain't gonna be colder in 3 hours so just get it frozen so the trichs become more brittle...
 
B

boo

as you can see, the finger leaves are now in the jar and the alcohol is poured into the jar and the lid is secured...note the frost on the jar sides...
shake the jar after being sure the top is screwed on tight...shake like you wanna kill the bastage...do it for about 30 seconds...got cold hands don't ya...if not, you cheated and wore gloves or didn't freeze long enough...
 
B

boo

heres the tricky part for some...use a bit of thought before trying this part so as to keep the fluid contained...if you don't you're gonna have sticky floors...take an old tee shirt of cheesecloth and form a sack on the end of the jar, kinda like a condom...turn the jar upside down allowing the fluid and the weed to drain into the filter...be careful, shit happens here if you smoke a bit first...once the jar is empty, wring the living shit outta the shirt squeezing it until you get close to popping a vein in your forehead...the best essence is in the weed at this point...wring it again to be sure, then wring it one last time...
 
B

boo

as you can tell, this is my receptical...a pyrex baking pan that is dedicated to pulling iso...not the existing iso oil remaining from the last run...it's almost impossible to scrape all the dried trichs out of the pan, trust me on this...
 
B

boo

the next to the last step is damn critical...carefully get the pan with the solution outta the house unless you feel like traveling...this alcohol WILL blow you the hell up so I take it out to the barn and place a fan on it for a few days...

important to critical note here folks: slow drying with no heat yeilds a full melt gold that is as good as any bho or hash oil I have had the pleasure to have smoked...I'm really old and have tried shit before most of y'all were born so go with me on this...ahahahaha...
 
B

boo

if you paid attention this is what you end up with in a few days...

critical issues: if everything ain't frozen the iso is gonna fight you all the way...when it is dry and I mean really dry, freeze the pan with the solution in it for about a half hour and then get a few single edged razor blades and freeze them...when frozen, scrape and slice the resin off the bottom starting with the sides of the pan first...remember, if it gets sticky, refreeze it...I say solution cause when done correctly all you have is a green/gold syrup that is thick...the trichs make it so...
when smoking, dust a little over a deep bowl of herb...deep bowl is needed due to the full melt...it saturates the herb all the way down...one big hit and you'll swear you're gonna meet God...a few more and you may...very potent and it's free...

enjoy and good luck...questions are happily answered

:1help:When you pour the jar out, Are you pouring it out into the pyrex pan and ringing it out in it to. And everthing left in the shirt it no goog at this point. Then you let it fan dry and cool it out side. :wallbash: One day I will learn this but Thanks for all the Tips.

Thanks Boo, I'd love to try that but have no where to leave it outside. even if I did its still 90+ down here in the south end...lol

thx:joint:

boo

rooster, the solution is poured into the teeshirt and then wrung into the pan...the shirt removes the impurities such as leaf matter and other flotsam...tonight I wrung out the herb and then noticed there was a few stray leaf particles so I passed the wrung out solution theu a coffee filter...

as for the vegital matter, toss it but not in the trash...garbage men may see it and they you got lots of 'splainin to do...

outside isn't al that important sns, just get it outta the house...a garage will work nicely but not if you have a gas water heater...were talking a big boom if the vapors get near the flame...way safer that bho...90 degrees will work well
