By food grade alcohol, do you mean something like Everclear? That's something I can surely do. I'd rather spend more money and ingest something (a little) safer.

I just tried to make some rosin/resin with a hair straightener. (I know it's hot enough). I held it very tightly for 20, then 25 seconds........ and only got FLAT weed! NO rosin whatsoever. WHAT am I doing wrong...and, what could I do wrong? It's so easy. The straightener doesn't have...

Wow, that's faster than I thought it would be without heat. cool. thanks! I just put the stuff in the freezer and will make it tomorrow. by the time it's cold enough today, I'll be through for the day. I settle in early being not too well

I'm going to look it up. I haven't heard of no heat, though. That sounds good! Right now, I've been watching ways to make it with frozen alcohol & weed, but it has to be heated to reduce the alcohol.

thanks, I'll give it a try. Well, I just tried making my first hair straightener rosin/resin.......all I got was flat weed :wall:. I've tried two different strains, and pressed as hard as I could....the paper was smoking. What could I be doing wrong? Oh, one strain was from this year and one...

Wish I could just buy different strains..... I live in a state that hasn't legalized it yet, and can only get seeds and grow. From what I've found, I can only buy a minimum of 5 of each strain, so with my health, 10 plants are all I (and my helping husband, who doesn't use it) can handle. He...

ok, here's a question. How does a vaporizer make dry herb stronger than just smoking it out of a pipe?.....and, for good measure, what strain helps you sleep?... if you don't mind :).

@Joint Monster, thanks for your input. I'm going to try the Rosin first just to get something. I do check my dosages on the tinctures each time I make a new batch, which I'll be doing today. I'll try a different strain than what I've used before. Vaping....... what exactly do you mean? I vape...

I use a tincture recipe that I reduce by 2/3 volume to make it stronger. I don't notice that it's strong, though. That's just me. I use it for nausea. Something about my illness has taken away the ability to feel the cannabis high; instead I just get stupid. However, I don't feel much with the...

I've read about that before. I'll google it and find a recipe & maybe check it out. thanks

Do you use a tincture recipe for your oil, or something stronger?

thanks, I thought about doing that just so I can at least get some hash. I think I'll start there before my bubble bags come in, and then get going on those. good idea!

@Joint Monster, thanks. You've helped a lot already. Yes, I'm a newbie. And, I agree that it looks too scary to make the BHO concentrates (at least for now). I'll look into the full melt bubble hash, too. I guess the strains would be better if they're Indica dominant? I have Afghan and Gold...

Help! I originally looked up how to make hash over a year ago, and it looked a little difficult; now, it looks like the instructions on the forum are in Greek. I thought my main dilemma was which kind, and now I'm seeing SO many ways and new terms that aren't even in the slang dictionary, like...

Thanks, but everything is cut, drying, and some cut into buds now. I cut out the bad parts, since I wasn't sure what it was, and there wasn't too much, thank goodness. Only one worm, and some other round, black bugs that could have been spiders that looked like they had skins like...

thanks! I kindof jumped the gun. There was only one :oops:. I panicked, expecting more, and there's another Gold Leaf with bud rot on it, so there may be more. I'm on my way to check out those threads. thanks again. Oh, and from looking at the site, it's not a bud worm. Yea!

Well, I think I just deleted this post, so I'll try again. We had severe bud rot on our Gold Leaf plants, and had to harvest one today. Thank goodness the trichomes were starting to turn amber, and good to go. But, now that we're trimming, we've found small, VERY small worms. They're about 1/4...

We had to harvest our first plant this morning due to severe bud rot with webs through it. Thank goodness the trichomes were done enough to cut. Now that we're trimming, we've found some black, microscopic bugs....maybe worms in it. Is there anything we can do to get rid of them at this stage...

Thanks. I decided against spraying. The buds are pretty far along. They're supposed to be harvested in October, but I think they'll be ready in Sept. They're so heavy, I have twine holding them up all over the place! It looks like a spider web! But, I hope it'll do the trick. I already lost one...

thanks, I'll do that. I'd prefer not to spray the buds. I'm on my way to the grow site right now to fertilize. If it's no worse, I'll leave it alone.
