I think the moisture will freeze,
and you will get nothing that you want;
the person who told you that probably got it confused with bubble--
see sox's threads on solventless ice shatter...

Was checking out solventless extract and dry ice . I use low heat and was told it decarboxilates . This was cool lesson much appreciated PpP will dab to that!like dabbie was saying you can definitely use wet material, but you have to freeze it asap. It's called fresh frozen or "live resin" aka a b.s. fluff marketing term that makes you think it was specially processed. Don't know if FF BHO would yield more but it does retain lots of terps that aren't lost to the evaporation of the flowers volitile organic compounds (I'm talking flavor carrying compounds) during the dry/cure
Thanks man. Thanks. Was always told dry . Drier the better. And my friend was the one who gave me my first and does monster runs super stable and tasty. Watched first hand many times. My lab☺ I'm using dry .my hand and I must think if everyone around me also. Stay green PpPI have had tubes blow using material that was too wet! I figured that the exces moisture froze and created a blockage because that tube made a mess that took a whole lot of alcohol to clean up, not to mention the wasted trim and bho.
Heard of commercial operations and others on site and YouTube using dry ice or ever clear. Man 2% . I've found that it all depends on how much trichlone content and maturity. Still a lil green behind the ears ☺ and wish I had the answers. But this sites great and very helpful . HaPpPy growing .Did a recent "bud/live resin" BHO run in a state approved closed loop system and vac oven setup. I usually yield 12-15% from dry trim. My mentor's highest yield from wet frozen buds was 29% of wet weight. Outrageous.
Amazed by this I gave it a try. Picked buds and rough trimmed fans and froze overnight, transported to facility (thawed en route), froze again for several hours until my products time slot.
990g wet weight yielded only 19g finished product. 2%! Seemed to leave a thin residue all over the parchment and has a grainy, soft, wet texture, not so sticky to the touch. Dark in color with a chlorophyll flavor. Not my usual light amber color and cookie texture.
I hear the proper freeze time is around 45-60min. Perhaps the extensive freezing caused chlorophyll pick up and exploded the trichromes, affecting quality and quantity.
very sad day indeed.
any thoughts on proper technique?
this is what caused the horribly low yield. The thaw more than likely caused water to cover the crystals and trap them.transported to facility (thawed en route), froze again for several hours
Recently I was told information on a BHO process to use and if I have learned anything new it's this site has Grrrrrreat info available on tap . So here's my dilemma. I was told u can gain on yields when making shatter if you use wet buds. NEVER!Have I heard this before and I run frequently for my own PERSONAL meds . Can't afford to lose nothing to dis-information. Thanks . PpP peace
