when in southeast Asia do as the southeast Asians. IE the best hash comes from the best bud. I like it so I do it. 2 or 3 small plants keeps me lacing jays for months.
Do you guys have any special method for breaking buds apart for better yield? Does the dry ice method deal with that issue better than water-ice?
Oh and I frequently use prime bud for my solvent extracts, especially in small amounts to sample a strain.
Hey EC, good to see you in another thread! More noob questions! Can you suggest a good basic extract technique that does not require fancy tools. . .Are ISO extracts worth the time and effort? That seems to be the easiest non-cold water way to go. . .other than butane which I don't quite have the space for. Danks!

I do mostly just vacuum purged bho right now, without reclaiming because the amounts are so small. You can grab small tubes that hold maybe 10-20 grams or so at headshops or online these days, and of course the now time-honered stainless steel turkey blaster apparatus (they both fit the nipple on canned butane). $10-20 depending on what accessory items you have lying around the house, and no weird looking devices necessary. Safety is the big deal of course, outdoors only, no sparks, not for idiots or intoxicated folks, etc. Don't get lax or shit will blow up (always pass on the lecture when answering these questions). Anything bigger and reclaiming makes sense, check posts by Greywolf for relevant threads and geniusing. And I don't really like iso much, although no expert on it, always seems to have off flavors and flat effects, I'm spoiled by butane which is super clean for such an easily available non-toxic solvent.
To me, mechanical extraction like sieved hash and kief can be potentially richer as a connoisseur product, complex layered flavors with trichs more intact, things you can really taste with the right vapor apparatus (but of course those have more than just pure cb oils). On the other hand, good bho/wax can be really flavorful too, and it offers advantages like the option to remove more impurities for smooth operation in a pen-vaper, or even process further for patients who want certain effects over others.
My question was referring to personal use. If you dedicate a plant or two specifically to make hash, or use some of the top quality buds you grew for hash. I realize that probably the only people who could turn whole grows into hash would be countries which have large commercial outdoor grows.there's no way i'd use premium heads to make hash. i would run at a loss if i did that
where did they get the data? I bet we make a ton here too. Although also bet our spot on the graph would rise pretty sharply over the past ~5 years?Found this:

guess I coulda read that at the top of the chart, eh? sounds interesting, waiting for the dload..
