ok my bubble machine came in today, got my bags, my pressing screen, a non stick teflon cooking sheet, a microplane cheese grater, and a freezer full of ice. Now im just waiting on harvest so we can fresh freeze all the sugar leaves/popcorn buds and get to making bubble hash!!!

Mr rize im curious to where it is you get those little jars that you put each different grade of wax in. It looks like there glass but could be plastic i personally think its probably glass. I bought a bunch of small glass jars to keep the different microns seperate and they had cork tops. They work great for holding the bubble but i can taste a little bit of the cork or something with each rip its like the bubble absorbed the taste of the cork from the top. Just curious ive been looking around on the net and havent found any real small ones like the ones that you have.

Rize sweet tut on the weed nerd anyone that knows anything know you bring it to a new level and share the knowledge thanks for that man. Thank you for upping my game. Anyone i smoke my ice wax with gets there skull blown back. Guys at the hydro shop actually pass on it cause they get too high. Man you have the best job ever just gotta say that i think the only job better would be Subcools job. Either way both of you work your asses off people dont get that about us kinda people that we are totally working our asses off and people dont get that. Well just wanted to say that. Heres some spacebomb Ice wax i made outside. In my garage tho so nothing was falling out of the sky everything clean and sterile.View attachment 2507144View attachment 2507145View attachment 2507146

Hey all sorry for the slow check ins. Its busy season here at the ranch. Just trying to work thru the outdoor trim, while keeping up with the indoor.

BUT... Subcool talked me into doing an advanced hash class on camera. Enjoy

PS to my patients: The Chemdawg ice wax at CCA right now is extremely high quality.

hey matt, i finally got something to show and ask ya.
my TGA strains with metal spoon sub method was always coming out gooie and dark
switched to gentiler stir, (wine stirrer on drill), thanks for that tip.

this is my latest batch from my J1 trim, dry. i microplaned (with a cheese grader i had at the time, now have a microplaner) it at 24 hours a few days ago. it now has that sugar crystal consistancy. i left the jar open for the next 2 days after. did i dry it out too much? it doesnt melt yet. the larger pieces are still somewhat malleable.

question is how do i get that waxy substance i saw in your vids after microplaning, am i missing a step or is it in the cure?

Just finished up my first run of bubble using fresh frozen trim to see what all the rage was about....trimmed up some nugs from harvest last night and threw the trim straight in the 6* deep freezer...had it in the freezer for 20hrs so it was def. good and frozen.....hand mixed with spoon for 4-5 minutes....with water so cold that if I stopped stirring the ice would turn to one big clump.
...
...
Never again....this shit is so green...again...gently mixed for 4-5 minutes....and i mean gentle....not in it for quantity so I know how to refrain from beating up the material.

What went wrong??? I have no problem with chlorophyll in the final hash when using dried and cured trim and buds.....I would need a pressure washer to blast this chlorophyll through the bag.

well mine was green at first, but dried to a dark tan. after awhile i figured it had water still in it since my water was green.

My fifth? attempt at ice wax, I just jarred up 3 runs (7m, 7m, 11m) of 7 bags, a 220 (trash), 160 (very minimal, greenish), 120, 90 (discovered last time nothing in it as 90, more like 60, put it under 70, as "60" it had some but less than 70), 70, 38, and 25. In previous washes, I have used primarily Sour Tsunami FF hand machine-trim, and I have always had the 70 ("60" and 160 are new) be dabbable. This time, it was all Blue Dream FF hand machine-trim from a different grower. Previously, I have let the micro-planed hash dry 24-36 hours @ about 55-60F/50% with a small fan just to move the air around. This time I let the planed hash dry 7 days in the same conditions. It was probably to be expected that the flavor seems dissipated but curiously, it seems none of it is very dabbable. All of the grades stick together and will not tumble in their jars, and they are totally dry. It looks great, very blonde. Of the 3 runs, the first was the smallest, the 2nd the biggest, and 3rd was in the middle. Somewhere between 7 and 14 minutes for the first run, a shortish 2nd run, and foregoing the 3rd run for FF or even just this specific material might be appropriate. I will have many chances at mostly this same material. I'm working on a warm "pocket" cure to see if the dabbing situation improves.

It's not undabbable, but different. My previous batches have had more "ooze" to them. Was that moisture and this is drier, or is it the genetics being different?

My water looked like lime kool-aid....lol....when I saw that I didn't even want to pull the bags to see the hash.....
after drying in a clump for 24hrs on the pressing screen, it seemed to get darker....think this batch is gonna see the toilet!!! *FLUSH*

For what it's worth, my previous batches had greenish water and this one had browner greenish water.
