    science of "jar tech"

    ok, thats where i was a bit confused. It seems there are multiple outcomes of jar tech depending on how you do it. diamonds are definitely not what i want. What i want is is carts with no addatives that vape well and havent lost all flavor. Winterization was perfect other than loss of flavor...

    Trichomes, plant matter, terps, wax, etc. What is contained where?

    Decided to try out the cold extraction today on my pile of rosin chips. Dont expect to get much return, but its good practice since ive never done Qwet before. Had about 3 ounces of squished flower, my first flower pressing as well so im sure i left a fair amount of good stuff in the earlier...

    Trichomes, plant matter, terps, wax, etc. What is contained where?

    im thinking i might try it that way if i dont do bho. pressing rosin and then winterizing is kinda pointless, might as well just extract with the alcohol in the first place. I think i will try it at super cold temps as mentioned to try and avoid picking up the waxes in the first place. Not hard...

    science of "jar tech"

    There seems to be many variations of this method but in general it seems to be the heating of a concentrate at relatively low temps for longer periods in a sealed container that will build pressure. Ive tried this with my rosin to prepare it for vaping and it actually seems to somewhat work, but...

    Trichomes, plant matter, terps, wax, etc. What is contained where?

    wait, so you're saying if i was to recover my alcohol in a column after winterization, that recovered alcohol would contain the terpenes? So if using the alcohol over and over again, the concentration of terpenes will keep rising?

    Trichomes, plant matter, terps, wax, etc. What is contained where?

    Thanks, that explains a lot. So you say the terpenes are alcohols, ethers, and ketones that will go into solution at most temperatures. Im assuming that means a lot of them will stay with the ethanol during winterization and not be caught in the filter with the waxes and fats. Will the terpenes...

    Trichomes, plant matter, terps, wax, etc. What is contained where?

    Just trying to get a better understanding of concentrates and the different methods for extracting different parts of the plant. So first off, what is in a trichome? Obviously the thc, but what else? Is this where the terpenes are? I would assume yes since live hash rosin retains terps and...

    making vape carts at home

    Lately ive been seeing that rosin carts are getting super popular, just wish i knew how they did it. I saw one company online that has 3 versions of carts. Just plain flower rosin, hash rosin, and live hash rosin. So it seems even the less clean flower rosin can be reliable in a cart but i dont...

    Live bubble hash rosin.

    Ive been looking into this for vape carts. Would be a much cleaner start than flower rosin

    making vape carts at home

    Any other recommended methods for good vape carts. How are commercial carts done? Always distillate with flavor added?

    making vape carts at home

    Are you referring to bho? Or all extraction methods in general? What if it is further processed, like winterization? Still not worth using trim?

    making vape carts at home

    is bho cleaner than rosin to begin with? like less wax, lipids etc? bho would be nice since i could make use of all the sugary trim i have that cant really be squished. I could always do bubble with that though. Thats another option, bubble hash, squish in rosin press, go from there. Id like to...

    making vape carts at home

    Been doing a lot of research on vape carts. Originally the plan was to start with rosin, but it seems that its just not the best option since you need to winterize which kinda defeats the purpose of pressing in the first place. I already have my rosin press and its making some awesome dab...

    Moving plants outdoors?

    My plants have always loved moving outdoors. Other way around is the issue for me. If i have a strong healthy plant outdoors that i bring in under led, it stops dead in its tracks for about 2 weeks before recovering.

    Bruce Banner # 3

    Just curious, where did you get your seeds? I just finished some #3, seeds from gelato. Seems this one requires some pheno hunting for good results. All mine were good, but no where near what bruce banner should be. I would guess maybe 15% thc on mine

    Massive pheno variation when ordering seeds

    Well if my wife and i were brother and sister like i expect the parents of a good line bred pheno to be, they might all look pretty screwed up, but maybe similar lol.

    Massive pheno variation when ordering seeds

    Ok, thanks for the suggestion. Ill try his gg4 and see how it goes. What kind of variation should i expect? Lets say i pop 4 seeds, is it likely that all will be good trichome producers with just small differences? Or could be huge variety like my bruce banner? I have no idea the source of those...

    Massive pheno variation when ordering seeds

    Are you reffering to dr greenthumb? I just looked through their website and they have gorilla glue #4, but says "new" next to it. Also i thought i read the #4 was cut only but i never know what info is reliable

    Massive pheno variation when ordering seeds

    Im in US, montana. Im growing medicine for my wife which has a pretty high tolerance, so high thc content, leaning more towards treating anxiety and depression. I would like to press a fair amount of rosin and do vape carts so i need one strain with good resin production which is why i mentioned...
