Everything I'm seeing says chlorophyll is definitely water soluble.
Cannabis has the same chlorophyll, as well as in other green plants.Water is how the plant transports it, and clearly soaking plant material in water in a water cure, turns the water green and bleaches out the plant, so something is happening.
Do you have another explaination brother Jump?
It is studied in detail and its chemical and physical properties presented for information anyone interested.
Popular articles on the physiology of plants can provide much more fully acquainted with the properties of chlorophyll than in a book on cannabis alchemy.
You can also find out that chlorophyll is not transported by water in the body of the plant, although its breakdown products are transported in solution.
The water is quite capable of transporting objects and materials completely insoluble in it, such as algae, plankton, fish, wooden and metal boats, etc.
Water flow can transport sand, stones, houses and trees, cars, not to mention the bodies of animals and humans.
The ability to be transported by water is not the solubility.
In my experience on the water curing, plant material does not discolor, and the color of drained solution was more yellowish, but not green. Measurement of ppm showed the presence of water-soluble components, decreasing with each change of water.
In experiments on freezing of alcohol solutions, green solution remained green after a long stay in the freezer. Chlorophyll did not coagulate, winterization does not remove it from the solution.
It can be removed using activated carbon, but then a good portion of the resin is lost.
It is better initially to prevent contamination of chlorophyll than to spend forces to remove it.
