I just picked some of my bud and am planning on making hash from the trim. I dried some trim from my last plant and i can't see any trichs on them any more. I was wondering if i should dry this trim or should i just throw the wet and dry in iso? Thanks for the help.

IF you are making OIL, you want the leaves DRIED first, to get the moisture out and leave the oil in.

Is this what you call oil? Im gonna put them in iso alcohol for a few days, strain, evaporate iso, and scrape together. So i should dry them first?

Hash, or Hashish, is the baked "kief" removed from trim leaves. Kief is removed trichomes. Still on the plant, those little resin glands, that we call "the crystals" are called trichomes while still on the plant. Aftr they are removed, they are called kief. If you pack them into a patty ro clump or cake, and bake it to harden it, then it is HASH. HASH is a very HEADY High, an engergetic high. We make ti from buds and trim leaves.


We can also take the female FAN leaves, and dry them first, get all the water out of them, leaveing the oil. Then by using butane or alcohol, we can process that oil out, and dry that oil into a tar, we call hash oil, but it is not really hash. It is such a dark green, we call it black. It is a body high, a knock you out high, a sofa-lock high, mostly containing canabanol, and very little THC, that works on the body.

IF you add some trim leaves to the oil, or buds, or kief, it will be brighter in color and that is honey oil, a combination of body and mind high.

Got some trim leaves???

Fan Leaves????


HASH, or Hashish, is caked and baked kief, formed into a chunk, clump, or patty, or solid lump. . Kief is extracted trichomes (resin glands)

Let me revesrse that.

Those so called crystals (slang term) that appear on the bud leaves, are called trichomes, or trichs.
When removed, the trichs are callled KIEF. KIEF is gritty, and sticky.,,,,sort of like very small granuales.
If you remove the trichs (KIEF) and collect them into a mass, they called HASH.
Frozen or very cold trichs are removed easier. You can use a silk screen, or a Kief Box, or bubblebags, or a Space Grinder to remove and accumulate them. Again, we get them from the "trim leaves", leaves trimmed from the buds, or we can just use the buds. The resulting HASH is very high in THC, a Mind High..
When I think of OIL, I think of taking the EXTRA leaves, the FAN leaves, and drying them, grinding them up in a blender, with High Octane or High Proof Isopropyl Alcohol, or a liquid that is very evaporative, like the dangerous Butane Liquid.. You mix the blended leaves with the Alcohol, and then evaporate the alcohol out, and you have OIL left..it is like a thick TAR. Not as high in THC, but very high in canabanol., and veyr much the body high.

Here is HOW:

you will need is some 100 or 90 proof isophyl alcohol.
The leaves need to be dried and from female plants.


And you will need a PERMANENT COFFEE FILTER........ABOUT $3 AT WALMART.
HASH OIL is not really hash oil. It is the oil of the leaves. They just call it HASH OIL.


Very simply, keep your FAN or SHADE leaves. The leaves that do not have visible trichomes on them. Put them in open shoe boxes or card board boxes, in the dark, in a dark room, or under the bed. Let them dry for 7 days, stir them daily, to make sure they are dry and do not mold. Then freeze them or save them in a dry box or paper bag.
You fill half a blender full of the crumbled dried leaves.
You add half a bottle of alcohol, the highest strenght you can find.
BLEND them up. Add some move leaves and alcohol and blend them some more.
Get a NON-DISPOSABLE coffee filter, it is micro-fine, and strain them, keeping the liquid. That liquid is alcohol and oil, half assed mixed. Then you evaporate the alcohol out, takes a week, maybe 2 weeks, depending on how much alcohol you used. But be patient and let the alcohol evaporate, leaving a very sticky, THICK oil. It is almost like TAR. VERY GUMMY!

You sill need a small sealable bottle to store it in,.

It is MESSY, use a stainless steal bowl.

What you are doing is mixing alcohol and oil, and then separateing it later.
Just like oil and vinegar salad dressing, they mix, but then they separate.
You use evaporation to separate them, that is why you use alcohol. WATER will not work!
Get the proper pipe, I like a glass bowl, and put one half drop on the end of a needle or pin, hold the flame under the bowl until the oil smokes and then hit it! Make sure you are near the sofa or a chair!










To make that hash oil, you got to have a metal fine mesh filter. A permanent non-disposable coffee filter works great. $3.00 at Walmart!

VERY IMPORTANT; IF you make the OIL, you have to let it evaporate for a week or two weeks. IF you smoke the alcohol, it will really mess your lungs up.

Kief Box:


[FONT=Arial,Helvetica]Price:$65.00[/FONT]

This is a WICCA Kief box, the very best one on the market. There is one slightly larger and one slightly smaller, and you'll need one to make HIGH GRADE blonde Lebonese or Blonde Afganey Hash. You can buy them at a "head shop" or "smoke shop" or "herbal accessories" store or order them off the internet. Do NOT get a GRINDER Box or Spaceship Box. They make low green or brown grade hash.

Left over fan leaves make OIL. The left over trim leaves are for making HASH.
Those CRYSTALS, (slang term) on the leaves are called trichomes, while they are still on the leaves. In Europe, they call them resin glands. AFTER you remove them, they are called KIEF.
After you bake them, into a lump or chunk or cake, they are called HASH. That is where the HEADY HIGH THC is.

Most people make HASH a difficult way, called Bubble Hash with ICE and Ice water. If you google HASH, youtube, you can watch 300 videos on how to make hash. The most difficult way is BUBBLE hash with ice water and bubble bags. The Ice water and blender method is easier.

I use a strainer, or filter or screen, that is in my kief box, to remove them.
MUCH EASIER FOR ME!.

After you save up the trichs, or KIEF, you put them in a cellophane packet from a pack of cigarettes, pack it, use a roller to press it and make it hard. Tape it up with cellophane tape, wrap it with wet newspaper, tape it again, bake it at 200 degrees for 5 minutes on one side, and 5 minutes on the other side, then roll it again with a rolling pin or large glass, , pressing it again, and bake it again twice, 5 minutes each side.

On a side note you can 'dry' iso alcohol by washing out the water with epsom salt. So you can get higher grade hash out of the common types of iso alcohol.

I am not sure how well this process would work with THC laden Iso...

the rick simpson method is THE best method ive used so far!! way better than anything ive heard here,,,arghhh,,

here it goes

you need weed , alcohol, strainer , paper coffeyfilters, stainless steel bowl or cup, and the most important part the RICE COOKER, put all your dried materiel in a suitable container then soak it a lil with the solvent , work it up with a stick a lil , it should compress a litle when its damp and you stir it for 1 min or so, the add enough solvent to submerge the herb, stir for 1min then poor through strainer into bucket or bowl ,wtv . after youve strained the big stuff you poor the solvent through a paper coffey filter funnel gadget and into the rice cooker witch will evaporate the solvent as the solvent mix comes down you add 8-10 drops of water to the boiling mix to ensure you can evaporete all of the solvent without burning the oil, after most the oil is gone you can poor it out of the rice cooker and into a stainless steel cup or bowl and put it on a gentle heating device such as a coffey warmer or heating pad the water in the oil should evaporate within 24hrs,, when the oil is ready it should look really smooth with no bubbling or any activity within the oil,,, when it is still warm i use 10ml oral dispensing serynges to store it in, its perfect for dispencing,, OH AND I DO ALL THE BOILING OUTSIDE ON A POWERCORD and dont forget to go buy a rice cooker for 15-25$ at wallys or something.... you could do without the rice cooker but it saves you a week or two
