Alright so since I said in one of my last post that I was making hash using the Gumby Method, Ive gotten quite a few PMs about how or what the method is *checo out my grow journal). So I happen to take some pics during my process of making the hash. So this is my quick How To on doing it so lets follow ago wit me
Things needed: your trim, LOTS and LOTS of ice, a bucket or two depending on how much trim you have and a glass jar
What i used in this how to - 5 gallon tubberware container, OZ of male plants and lower trimmings of females, 6-7 punds of ice
Step one: You'll see I used a 5 gallon container I filled about half of it with ice and then filled the container up with cold water Then add your trim.
Step Two: Most IMPORTANT STEP now I used a mixer (like for baking) or you can take the mixing end and attach it to a drill. and then Ice Wash your trim (sorry didnt think to take a pic during this step) do this for 15-30 mins just go at. The ice cold is freezing your trim and the trichs on that trim hence the wash is knocking the heads off and falling to the bottem.
Member 15-30 mins you have to hit that trim good all around.
Step Three: After the ice wash your gonna wanna start removing all that ice out of the container. Next is removing the trim and REMEMBER to squeeze that trim out nice and good before you remove it cause that too have trichs that are still on it.
Afterwards its time to strain that water into another bucket (i found that a screen window works pretty nicely)
Make sure that water is as clean as possible no weed floating around and the water will look golden brown that means your a step closer to that wonderful thing called hash
Step Four: The Gravity Game - Now once your water is all clean go ahead and place that bucket/container somewhere where no-one will distrub it at all, seriously. Keep it there for a good 4 hours. This is the time where all the Trichs are falling to the bottem.
Once the 4 hours are up go ahead and start syphoning that water out (use a hose or cup) just dont distrub the bottem remember thats the goods you want to keep.
Do this till your about a 1/2 inch from the bottem (i used a baster to get that low)(sorry no pic on this step either)
Step Five: Now once you achieved getting 1/2 in from the bottem get your glass jar ready give your current container a nice swirl cause its now gonna go into the glass jar. Now pour her on in and again the Gravity Game begins - this time 2 hours of absoulete no distrubance
Step Six: Now Syphon that jar and using a baster get as close as possible to the hash without distrubing it again. The less water the less time you have to wait for drying. Once you got as close as possible.
Get yourself a plate either put a piece of plastic bag (i cut a bag in half and used it) or wax paper and place it on a bowl/plate
Now Pour your mixture on that piece of plastic/wax paper
(i ended up using a eye dropper to get more of that excess water out - remember less the water quicker it drys)
Step Seven: Now its drying time for the next few hours. I placed 3 light bulbs around the bowl. After 2 hours the hash was start to become it and now you can start molding it to a ball
First 2 hours
Next Hour
Final Hour
What it weighted out too (thats from about an oz of male plants and lower trimmings of females) - expect a 15% return of what you put in
Im quite happy this is my first time trying it and was succesful with the cost of water and a big bag of ice. I nice alt. to the expensive bags and such. Hope this helps out people
