Grow diary mission impossible (low to medium budget lol)

[BearWater]

You’ve got something to smoke and you learned a thing or 2. That’s a successful grow really.

Absolutely JJ! I’m taking it well and really excited to try my hand at pressing!

Learned a ton this round! : )

@Oldchucky @MartyMcFly42oh pulled this off a bit ago! hair straightener, parchment paper, added the use of my vice, and the bud pressed had been sitting out in the garage since friday. Im getting excited, the rest of that plant has been “actually drying” in more of a stable and correct climate, maybe another 3 days? I may do some of the lower little buds in the hair straightener once thats done but ill wait for the “unit” too really press that whole plant! : )

 

[Oldchucky]

Pretty slick! Yankee ingenuity! Have you got something to smoke it in? You’ll figure out a way to rig that too! Be waiting for the report! When you come to!

Thanks JJ! Major learning moment with this also! The bud pressed seemed almost wet! So I went and got a bud out of the shed that had been drying and was a little less wet to try that amount of moisture in the bud. Turned the straightener on and got it to hot so no rosin at all out of the press! Hahaha! I definitely have some playing around to do. Really excited about the potential! : )

Just ordered another pack of screens. I run 160 micron cause I’m a greedy bastard and want everything I can squeeze out

Im going to try that out. From what I was reading and watching on the 120 was kind of a mid road of quantity and purity. Me personally would like a bit more quantity : )

What size puck are you pressing? You pre press and form to fit the bags?

Edited to add another question : ) what micron are you using to press hash and dry sift type material? Thanks JJ!

Hey @Oldchucky you mentioned “how I was going to consume” the stuff I make. Do you have any suggestions? another thing im really wanting is a vape that can handle my own solvent less rosin. You got any ideas on that?

Im retiring my pipe as of this afternoon (its kind of broken in the bowl and beyond dirty) just picked up a “smoke shop special” bowl to get my bong back up and going at least to smoke flower. I think headhunter had some maybe? It was like a hand held on the go dabbler, borderline medium bubbler sized if I had to describe it that way. Ill keep looking around also : )

All I know is, full melt Hash clogs up anything with a screen! Including vapes! Some vapes are made for it I guess! I don’t know how that stuff melts! You could always try hot knifing it like in the old days! But you’ll probably have to mix it in with some weed To keep from clogging up screens! I’ve been out back getting my pick up truck, mired in the mud! Got an off-road tow truck coming tomorrow to pull my dumb ass out! 350 bucks lesson! L O L!

Damnit chuck thats less than a two hour drive for me and I’d done it for free just to be able to laugh at you!!!

 

[Oldchucky]

The price of growing dope! I don’t think you’d be able to leave your babies for more than two hours! I’m just surprised at the lack of four-wheel-drive tow trucks! I told them they could wait till after it quit raining tomorrow! This thing they’re bringing has tracks! L O L!
