WarMachine I like that idea man! Where have you seen the stainless foil for sale?

Hey guys I get the white powder every time the tane extract is super cold and ambient air is very cold out and I use no heat at all to evaporate the solvent. And the oil always seems to be a bit lighter in color when made this way. It's a tricky thing to add just a bit of heat while evaporating...

Great info guys! If you are using dried cured bud/trim for making concentrates and/or edibles with then the decarboxolation has already started as my understanding goes. If you then make a cold processed tincture the decarbing doesn't continue because the extract doesn't go through further...

You can use anything for spacers that won't burn on the griddle. Like small ramekins, small blocks of steel, anything to elevate the chamber slightly above the griddle so there is a buffer area below the chamber so it doesn't get too hot by sitting directly on the griddle.

The plants will naturally take in (metabolize) less co2 when they are at their late flowering stage and ripening. It doesn't matter what you set your co2 at near the end. They will only take in what they want. If you follow how much co2 you are going through in a sealed room you will easily...

Use contractor larger razor blades rather than a drywall spreader and you will be able to scrape up more oil

If the griddle is too hot and doesn't have low settings on it you can layer parchment paper on it to make a buffer to lower heat, or sand, or raise the vac chamber off the griddle a bit by putting spacers under it. Some guys have commented they get wax up around 130F. Well I've had oil get...

Right on BT looking great! The addition of the second light should make a big difference in bud size and yield per sq/ft I hand wand feed. Large reservoir, heavy duty pump, hose and 5' wand. Go up and down the rows of each bed. Takes time but with a lot of plants it's the only way to make sure...

If you've had it up to 158 then it most likely won't wax up. Read through this whole thread from the start and you'll see how many times BHO makers state the temps to get oils to wax up. And at room temp after having your oil at 158 I would suggest it is just a semi firm goo but not shatter...

Oil isn't completely predictable. Different strains and different ages of material will give you different results occurring at different temperatures. If you are playing with the same material every time then it's more predictable what temps and lengths of purging will take you to where you...

As you vac purge under 100F you will see a constant bubbling. As the bubbling slows and the oil starts to wax you will still see small holes where the liquid oil seeps up and through the wax. As all of the oil firms up and waxes solid there will be NO more small holes with liquid bubbling up...

Hey BT!! Ya man!! That's how the pruning is done! Excellent! Yes they will bush back up again on the 1/1/1 ratio. This time around I suggest tweeking to the 1/2/3 ratio a bit earlier and if you thought that other stuff with the leaves was nute burn (which it wasn't for sure) I would increase...

If the products you are extracting from are either too old or allow too much chlorophyll and other byproducts into your oil then your oil will not harden up. Running pure shake it's hard to get a solid wax from but it is possible if it is very fresh and frozen before you blast. Room temp...

Plants will only use up what they can for their metabolizing abilities in relation to their size and growth stage and with respect to their grow environment. Better grow environment ie. temps, lighting, etc. will allow for better absorption and metabolizing of co2. Generally they will use up...

Hey man ya Southerner has it right. The plants are over watered. Don't fuck with anything else till you get that soil dry. ONLY water/feed when the top inch or two of soil is totally dry. Keep it in mind that just cause the very top of the soil looks dry, the mid and bottom root zones are...

Yes it's a pheno that can happen from fem seeds. And it doesn't always come out in the plant even if you clone and re clone from the fucked up pheno. We've had it happened from fem OG seeds. Sometimes when it happens only one branch on the plant will have those fucked up buds developing and...

Neem will help as a bit of a preventative because it puts a coating on the leaves and PM doesn't attach itself to it very easily. BUT neem will not get rid of the PM you already have. The absolute best product on the market to 100% get rid of PM is NOVA (myclobutanil) It is NOT organic but it...

Powder mildew is common when you bring cold wet air into a grow environment. It's hard to control a grow environment perfectly when you are exchanging air. Your humidity readings are probably all over the place as probably are your temp variances. You need to keep your humidity between 45-55%...

Yes the less you run it the better quality you will have because the trim or bud doesn't break down to tiny dust particles which mix with the kief. And different size trichombs come off both different parts of the plants and different strains and outdoor vs indoor mj tends to have different size...
