Okay, im in no way shape or form new to growing.... and ive made hash via from my weed grinder... But im a little confused on how to make hash from the leaves and smaller buds...

Ive been to the FAQs, been on youtube, and anything else that talks of it... But there has to be a better way than mixing in a blender with ice and alcohol!!! thats basically the method everyone is going for... any "safer" homeade recipes that dont require me blowing something up?

I'd love to use bubble bags... but i may have problems due to the fact that i dont have any...

Any advice is well appreciated... someone please help me, before i do something crazy with these leaves... like make a salad perhaps???

heres a pic of where the leaves just came from

The most easy way I've seen on how to make hash is to just blend the leaves/cutting's and then work them on a mesh screen for about an hour, then press what came through into the plastic from a box of smokes. Wrap this in paper and soak with water then heat in the oven. Take it out and press it then cool in the fridge, and un-wrap!!! Easy freekin peasy!!!

Of course Ive never tried this, and Im only on my first grow so what the fuck would I know!!!

although Like I said, first grow, so what the fuck would I know!!!!!!

Whats this

I don't know man. I've read that a good piece of silk would work. You could get that in any fabric store or maybe a craft shop of some kind. You'd have nothing to lose if it didn't work. actually you might even get a good fine mesh screen in a craft store.

I bought 1 gallon bubble bags on line for 100.00 They work very well. Google Headies.

Yeah man I wathced a vid on youtube there, it say's a silk screen, the type used for printing t-shirts, so deffinately a fucking arts and crafts store!! Although you will probobly have to build a little wooden frame for yourself.

yea can make it but you really need the screens you strain it 3 times and you get the purist hash.FDD is king of hash maybe he will chim inn he uses a washing machine for his.must be nice fucking big ass trees.

The purpose of Bubblebags it to give you a few different grades of bubblehash. I recently purchased a set and was not impressed with the outcome so I went back to my old method.

Here's what I do:

1. Take a 5 gallon bucket, fill it about 1/3 or the way full of trimmings/popcorn buds. I add a 10lb bag of ice and about 2 gallons of water.

2. I mix everything for 20 minutes (non stop) with a drill and paint mixer.

3. I pour the mixture through a kitchen strainer to get almost all of the big leaves.

4. Then I pour it through one of those gold coffee filters (the permanent ones) to get that last few bits of leaf.

5. I let the mixture settle overnight. DO NOT SHAKE THE MIX AT ALL.

6. I use one of those $10.00 drill pumps to siphon off the top 2/3 of water.

7. I pour the remaining 1/3 in to 2 clear plastic pitchers (so you can see the outcome) and again let them settle overnight.

8. The following day you should see all the trichs at the bottom of the plastic pitchers. It looks almost like sand.

9. I again siphon off almost all of the solution using the drill pump. When I get within 1" of the trichs (again, DO NOT disturb what has settled) I use a plastic turkey baster to get as much liquid off as I can.

10. I pour the remaining "trich soup" (just a few oz of liquid)in my $50.00 Walmart food dehydrator. Those things come with a plastic pan (in addition to the drying screens) so you can make fruit roll-ups by spreading grape jelly on the pan and drying it out. Little did they know it works GREAT for hash too.

11. As the mixture begins to evaporate I use a razor and scrape the mush in to a pile. Eventually I end up with a nice chunk of hash.

Warning: Pay attention to the dehydration process. If you don't scrape it in to a pile as it dries it'll get stuck to the whole plastic pan and you'll play hell scraping it up.

Oh, that dehydrator comes in handy at harvest time if you want a little something to smoke while your buds are drying/curing too.

Lastly...this procedure doesn't give you different "grades" like the bubble bags do but the hash still kicks ass.

Good Luck!
