Honey oil is some of the most potent shit ive ever smoked.

Just a question...


Why would it matter, doesn't the butane wet the plant anyways, just like in a water hash extraction when using water the plant WILL be wet, so what is the difference?

Not arguing in any way shape or form on this one as I have never done this, I am just curious why it would make a difference and want to understand better. The one quote said a molecule needs to drop off and this is accomplished during the drying stage. Now this is plausible and sounds like it could make sense, but if this is NOT the case and the molecule explanation is not true, then, I would figure since TCH is not water soluble the plant being wet or dry should not affect the actual THC during this type of extraction.

Now, if the H2O in the plant when it is wet, interacts with the butane in a negative manner, then I understand why it should not be wet. What I am trying to say is, if the water allows the plant matter to secrete other material like chlorophyl into the final product making it taste bad or not come out the way it should, this would also make sense as to why to do it dry.

This is true, there are further steps to purify your oil.

After your butane evaporates, its often a dark amber, or orangish color, and some say its still smokeable, which it is if you really want to... To get rid of the rest of the butane simply get some 99.9% iso. alcohol and gather up all the thick oil by adding the iso alc. this will make it easier to get into drem viles if you wanted too. once you have the oil in your glass vile or any other glass bowl you will want to boil off the iso alcohol under low heat. I've used crock pots.
Simply fill the crock pot half way with water, put a plate or a bowl under the water to keep your glass container with your oil from touching the bottom, and turn it on med/high, just be careful when boiling off iso.
Do this outside if you can, somewhere with very good ventilation.

Once your done your oil will actually clear up to an alomost yellow, or honey color and ready to smoke. I've heard that medical grade alcohol can result in an almost clear oil...


No you always want dry product when making hash of any sort.

Thanks ThunderLips. Kinda thought so but wasn't 100% sure.

I appreciate the answer.
