Best Way To Remove Seeds

**eliyahoa** · 10-19-2009, 12:53 AM

I would basically like to know the best way to remove seeds from bud that was seeded at different times?

What I mean is that there are some fully developed seeds that are brown, firm and drop out somewhat easily, the rest are green/white/yellow in colour and are much harder to remove from the bud I plan to smoke.

I'm looking for something more than just pulling the seeds out by hand, as I would like to save as much of the resin as possible without disturbing it and causing it to break off. I tried removing the bigger seeds and grinding it up and then removing the seed flakes i could see, but this is very tedious and a lot of the seed is mixed in with the bud that is indistinguishable at least to my eye. I couldn't think of anything else that would do the trick. Any suggestions?

well, if it's the bottom of your bag, and all shake with seeds in it, get a 3 ring binder or a hardback book. Put all your shake on the cover of the book/binder. Flip it around where the spine is inbetween the two covers and beneth them (kinda hrd to explain) take your ID, and gently scoop and lift the shake while holding it at an angle, but not so your weed slides down, and then drop it. The seeds will roll down the binder cover and collect down at the spine. Repeat the process over and over until the seeds are gone. I can do an oz of shake like that in about 5 minutes. 0 seeds.

actually its not shake, its all buds with seeds stuck inside them.. more of a challenge i think, any ideas?

I have the same problem. Seeded females that I want to remove seeds from, without destroying THC glands in the bud. Eliyahoa did you ever get a solution to this problem?

Cannamedz, I did not get a good solution to this problem. Some of the fully developed seeds have fallen out of the bud, just from the rotation in the curing jar. Aside from that, just hope that most of your seeds were pollinated at the same time. I have many small seeds that aren't even hard yet and unfortunately are extremely difficult to remove from the bud unless u bit it all up by hand. What I've been doing lately, is just peeling off the portions of bud that aren't as seeded, in my case I have foxtails that protrude and arent as seeded as the middle section of bud. With the middle section I plan to either add it to my bubble hash pile, or make some edibles out of it.
