Yo girly. Chicks rule.

This is the info I needed right here. I have had the jars in the fridge all day long as it was WAY to nice a day to pass up making hash.

But yes that is the issue hubby and I are discussing is how to strain it properly. I have so much sandy silt - like stuff at the bottom. I have a feeling it is going to turn out good.

I did cut up my leaves and buds very fine first and hopefully this will either help or slow down the process. Yes I can see that part taking forever but it is Sunday evening and I will just watch a good movie while doing it.

Its good to see you again girly. I was beginning to wonder what happened to you also. There are a lot of new females here now.
Thanks for the heads up

Hey Lacy - I haven't been on much lately so I missed your exit and return but I'm glad your back :-). I have tried a lot of different stuff with my first harvest. Did the bubble blender hash like your doing.... The pics look right. Mine also looked like a weed slushy straight out of the blender. The worst part I found about this method is the draining through the coffee filters. It takes a LONG FUCKING TIME! A handy hint I found was to use the coffee maker. I set up the filter in my coffee maker and poured the hash water into the coffee filter set up over the caraffe so the water drains down into it and the Trics are left in the coffee filter. It took at least 4 hours for the water to slowly drip down through all the trics. When there is just a little water left you can go ahead and start squeezing the water out of the filter, just be careful not to rip it.

Now after all that.... I have to go back to the other methods. I also tried the isoperal alchol method and honestly I like it better. Just for ease of preperation. The butane method I tried with a DIY set-up. That was pretty hard and I got the impression I left a lot of thc in the bottle. If you had a real butane extractor it probably would be better. The force it takes to keep the butane down in the bottle is a lot for female hands I can tell you that.

Thanks Woldo.

Your little one is adorable also.
That pic was taken when she was just a pup. She is just over a year now. Here she was today going for her car ride.
She likes to drive.

How old is yours??? How much does he/she weigh???

The only complaint I have about mine is that she is just so yappy. Sometimes she doesn't shudd up. :?

Kind of like me at times.:roll:

Thanks for stopping by and showing pics. They are just adorable. don't you just love the overly exaggerated ears.?????

Yes thanks. I have plenty of them and I will use them while making this but don't use them for trimming my weed and I should.


Here are some more pics.

The jars in the fridge and how much silt I have so far.

I have about a 1/4 mason jar full.

I am now going to pour this through the paper filter.

Girly Hits is right in that although it says quick and easy...there is nothing quick about this method. Its as slow as ever. IU decided not to use the paper filters but just to keep filtering it over and over again with a gold coffee filter. It worked fine. That other way would have taken me forever.

Today I went out to the dollar store and stocked up on the right alcohol. bought 6 bottles of it so tomorrow I will try that method.

Just don't tell my hubby because I'm not suppose to. He threatened to hide my weed.:o :o


Here are some pics of the process so far.

What a glorious day it was today. PERFECT!!!!!:mrgreen: Had a bon fire and all.

Thanks for stopping by email. Always nice to see you.

Oh I am gonna do the bubble bag thing BUT no I can't wait. I am ordering a Bubbleator B Quick and it comes with bubble bags. I love that word.

I have soooo much bud material that I am going to have a NICE selection of goodies which is what I want.

Plus if I don't experiment I am never going to know what works and what doesn't.

What I am a bit confused about now is whether to strain this sandy silt one more time into the paper filter OR should I just scoop out the sany silt rinse out the jar with cold water and then filter through the remaining water?????

Does anybody know the answer to this???

Then I apparently add this sady silt matter to the remaining matter and squeeze the excess water out. I was going to use some silks I have to wrap it up and then use some pieces of wood with some claps to hold it together to dry.

I am not sure how long I let it dry for. I should read through the directions again.

Thanks again email and 'yes' I'm not the most patient woman:roll::blsmoke:

I am having a lot of fun though. Very interesting experiment.:mrgreen:

that's cool and you know i was just teasing a bit. one thing - use only the trich covered leaves and popcorn buds in the bubble bags -- otherwise the taste is off. And when you mix it up be careful not to push any undesirable material through the screen.

Yes I know you were teasing. I don't mind it from you.

Yes when I get the bubbleator I am going to use only top quality bud material not only because I have read that otherwise it can ruin or break the bags but because I want some hash that is just wicked bad :twisted:

I am going to have some delicious treats. you'll see. I will post pics of it all.
Ummmmm:hump:

Thanks again.
Gonna go work now.

So I did it well and then went and screwed it all up so had to do the entire process over again. I'll chuck that up to live and learn.

Today I am going to start my other method with the alcohol and see what the difference is.

I have plenty of bud to save for when my bubbleator comes in.

I have to agree with you 100% on this girly chick. I read and re-read and the filtering technique and debated whether to use the paper filters or just the gold coffee filter. Hubby suggested I get the paper coffee filters but as soon as I started that method it just sucked bigtime. THAT is sooo s-l-o-w
I just don't have that kind of patience either. Thanks fo your feedback girly. It was very relevant to where I was at in regards to this method.
Rep you for sure. ;)

Glad to see everything turned out well, are we gonna see pics on the finished product? Also a small word of advice for the alcohol method if you have a ventilator hood over your stove turn it on when you boil the alcohol if not its not the end of the world but be careful not to spark up as fumes will fill up the room your in and possibly the house depending on open doors etc. Good luck

Final pics of product. Yes sir. Absolutely. Then I can show people what not to do. As far as the fan...yes I have one and would have definitely tunred it on.


I never did toke upstairs but now I am getting the boot outside anyway. Hubby's rules. But to be fair he doesn't smoke and is very tolerant of my habit. He lets me smoke indoors in the cold weather. :mrgreen:

But then again if he knew I was doing this today he would not be happy.:-|

I'm gonna get the 'LUUUU CCYYYY" when he gets home tonight. :?

Heh mine's a little yapper too. Just stares at me and barks all the time when he wants attention. He's only 6 months now, and when I was growing he loved my plants and would always be licking the resin off my fingers when I would handle the buds. The only thing I don't like about having a yorkie is maintaining their hair... :mrgreen:

Ouch, I've got a batch of iso drying right now... I was too scared to use the stove, so I'm letting it air dry and trying to vent it. Still freaks me out that if I light a joint, I could blow my face off. :roll:
