Cbd Extraction - whole plant wash vs selective section wash

Alright all you oil freaks, lets discuss plant wash experience.

I personally, have found that finely ground material releases more cbd. Unfortunately, it also releases lots of other nasties. I see river rock is promoting "whole plant washes" for greater cbd extraction. I always seperate trim from popcorn from bud.

With proper filtering you can grind your material to a powder and still not pull chlorophyll and other nastiness.

This^^

I've made some fine shatter after turning my starting material to kief.. haven't tested too many cbd oil samples just yet though..

I wonder if there would be more cbd present in the second run on the material...

What is the proper filter?

When I first got the tri-clamp tubes from glacier tanks I found this filter.

It was the lowest micron filter I could find that fit the tube perfectly, but I never got it because that tiny piece would have cost more than the entire tube and coffee filters have been working fine for me.
