It ended up pure green because you whisked it like fuck.

You're not supposed to use a whisk OR mix like fuck, you're supposed to just agitate it gently and let the ice do the work.

If you use a whisk or mix to vigorously then like I said, you will break the trim up into too small pieces which will pass through the bags with the trichomes and contaminate your hash with vegetable matter. Hence the green.

My bags are in a 5 bag set from 220 microns to,160,120,75,20.

I don't filter for different grades of bubble, I just go for yield and if you do it right it'll be full melt every time.

Trichomes don't get bigger than around 150 microns and they don't get smaller than about 60 microns, anything smaller than that and you're just catching the stalks that the trichome heads are attached to which aren't very psychoactive (that's some gold dust info right there, it took me 2 years to find that out).

I remove the 120 bag and the 75 bag so I catch everything in between (160-75).
So the 220 bag is the 'work' bag and you'll put your trim and ice in that, then you have the 160 bag then the 75 bag.

your right with the bags but its to hard work for me, how long will it take to bubble up 1bin bag of trim ? lol i'd be dead thats for sure, if i do it all in a big tub with ice and be gentle will it be ok then. or god im having a bit of a whitey........ hhmmm

A bin bag of trim? How many plants did you have?

Trim is just that, the little sugar leaves you trim from the buds. No fan leaves and shit, in fact if it hasn't got visible trichomes on it it goes in the bin.

From 4 plants at 4 feet tall yielding about 4 oz each you should be able to fit the usable trim into a couple of large seal bags, I'd need about 20 plants or more at that size to anywhere near fill a bin bag.

You could either do it in smaller batches. Say break it up into 4 runs. Each run would maybe take you about 20-30 mins to do properly.

Or you could mix it all up with broken ice in a big bucket like you say and then scoop out all the green mushy shit and pour the water through the bubble bags to catch the trichomes, but you would have to mix the ice and trim for a good hour or so to make sure you got it all in one run and unless you have somebody to help you (like to hold the bubble bags over the bath while you pour) otherwise you would have to do multiple pour and strains.

Either way it's a little work but the end product is well worth it, if you don't smoke it yourself you can sell full melt bubble for £30-£50 a gram all day long!

When I trim I try and put all the fan leaves and big shit to one side and keep all the fine stuff for me bubble

These are pretty much the cheapest but decent quality bags you can get....

I paid about the same for mine and the micron size's are near identical.

You smoke bubble through a pipe just like you would weed but instead of using a gauze make a cap out of tin foil and just poke a few holes in it, that way you're hash doesn't melt and fall through. You can load a pipe with weed and then top it with a bit of hash or even make joints with it.

Or you could fuck the bubble off and turn all your waste into soapbar and flog that as well for even more cash.

I have a little sideline going round here were I offer a 'waste removal service' free of charge for growers, I come and take all the shit away no bother.

I then go make soapbar with it and pocket the cash.

£250-£300 for 9oz is not tom be sniffed at! ;)
