I tried to reuse my medium once, I cut my yields hard , and I was chasing problems the whole grow. (Wasn’t running MC)
Probably lost a pound + to save $40
Not good math, in my case.
However, my motivations are not financial. I'm a hobbyist with the flexibility to fail. MC worked really well, I would encourage hydro users on the bottle (and non soil recyclers/notillers) to give it a shot.
Re-using Re-ammending is not easy, and by no means can I claim to have a complete understanding but, that soil is probably 3 years old, it taught me the importance of pH and it's not done teachin'.

I have lots of motivations , and I love to experiment n try new stuff, it’s how I got to where I’m at.
I’m lacking two major things to make this a better option for me, space & time.

ISO full plant extraction (7 day hang dry) then frozen for 2 days..with jars,dish,iso,tubing..
After my wash,I pour in the dish & let sit on ice in a cooler for 24hrs,after most of the bullshit has settled, I reclaim the iso(tubing) back into the iso bottle & put back in the freezer..

Now this first dish is not what you want to smoke..
20180906_092509.jpg
Don't care,don't @Me...

Clean trash refreeze the dish...24 hrs later,pour the iso back in the dish,set on double boiler (in well ventilated area) set to med-hi Hi,set hair blower of to the side,set on cool..hr or so later

Sorry Gen I can’t help it....but I’m in agreement with you.
Once the iso hits the heads (what looks like bubble) it’s no good. And it another cause of the oil darkening.


Edit. Next time before your last stage, line the dish with parchment paper, n then pour it in.
A lot easier to collect when it’s done.

I blast right on it, beats scraping n getting sticky

Great tip!

For C12, after it’s sat for a bit, I’ll hit the sides with a heat gun(just a little) this turns the film to more of drops , making it easier to collect, n get it with the center mass for purging .

If it’s hard to work with, put in freezer for 30sec n try again.

I’ll fold the paper over, n rub with my finger to remove air, then pick a side n rip like a bandage, (start easy) I’ll keep doing this unit I have the shape n thickness I want.

Now to get to the finish line.
I love the structure on both those crosses. Looks like they're going to produce huge colas.

Male tent. And a couple clones of cookies n chem I jus found to use. And one special blueberry sunset from eastcoastmo of sunset sherb x(NL#5 × Blueberry) the strongest blueberry smelling plant i have ever found. Shes getting flowered out next and clones of her will get some dust.
20180907_231359.jpg
Magnum Opus #7 male. Extremely sticky and stinks alot. I believe is a royal kush leaner
20180907_231403.jpg
GG4 x Sour Tangie male. Very loud tangie sour smell.
20180907_231408.jpg
20180907_231413.jpg
Magnum Opus #3 male. Still in solo. But hes also kush smelling. Really strong on stem run and fan rub.
20180907_231417.jpg
Magic Cake seedlings in the reddish orange basket. Wizard Punch x Wedding Cake* Phylos certified. Not that, that means anything to me. But the wizard punch is blissful wizard x purple punch. So hopefully I find some color n cake scents. And some purple cake scents. Grape cake hopefully.
20180907_231422.jpg
Chem '91 S1 seedlings from Csi in the blue basket. Hopefully crossing some of these with the males I have should make some fun stuff to look through.20180907_231423.jpg

The gg4 x sour tangie male is the same mother of the jamaican pineapple glue keeper I have. It's super frosty.

Same gg4 mother in this as the tangie glue cross

Really? I've been reusing my sunshine mix for over a year now. I just deroot, use sledgehammer, and run water through it in a spare 4x4 flood table. Then I let it dry and reuse it with out problems.

All 5 goji above coco with 1 still trying to pop open and the bubba's gift is up and running. I'm stoked to run some goji again, I really liked the flavor of the last ones I ran and bubba's gift sounds great from all the reports I've heard, slow but I can dig it. I know the tangerine power male will ad some vigor to it in certain phenos.

The black dogs are loving the cmh, hell all of the plants in the flower tent are loving it. The damn thing is so bright I can't barely stand poking my head in the tent, I have to look through a crack like a peeping Tom, lol.

This is tallest pheno I tied back quite a but and snapped off one of the two tops when tying her back early on. I'm thinking it's a headband leaner from the lankiness? Nice and green
20180907_210405.jpg
This pheno is middle in height, I didn't top her but rather bent top over and made a big "S" in the stalk, she is responding well to the bend, a lot of side growth.20180907_205946.jpg
This pheno was shortest and has very tight node spacing, almost too tight, I'm thinking it might have mold issues in humid climates with this structure. Reminds me of The Hog by THseeds I grew back in 2004. Small tight node indica.20180907_205647.jpg

I don't clean up the lowers of plants in flower for the first week or so to help minimize stretch, sometimes it helps sometimes it don't, some strains just stretch regardless. Cheers Chuckers.
