Drinking from a Cattle Trough

I’m experimenting lol. I’ve hit both ends of the curve with adding moisture now to find the happy spot. My goal on this batch was 40 grams, ended up with 14 grams wax and the wash is still evaporating

so what’s the crazy old fart doing you ask? I like wax, more like smoking it, here’s 2 types of wax and the only difference is the amount of moisture in the flower pre press.

One you scrap some out, pack it in a bowl hell sprinkle some on a blunt and your day is set.
The wax on the right, same everything but is a PITA to do anything with unless it’s cured for a long time then it pretty much a dab rig limit

Nice looking wax. I like the options. Both have their use. What's your preferred method of smoking wax?

Simple but highly effective, my preference is to scrape a little on top of some good flower. Puff on it like a cigar, but don’t forget to inhale

This is what I was doing! Wasn’t able to come up with a banger set up. But it seems to make the bowl last longer like youre saying. I like that.

I use the mesh to keep the vape cleaner first rime it left stuff that was hard to clean.

I wanted to ask you what humidity did you have for the soft one.and did it give more or less?

Trying to find that magic number, stick around…
As far as return, it’s way higher. 10% from cured flower
18.5% from one batch of moist
So the benefits are 2. Easy of use and yield

Weekly
The wife’s- get her blooming and she is on autopilot
Cloner- 17 days cut and Pure Michigan thinks she’s in a race, 3 on right
Veg- change of plans, Tropicana cookies is out and Chemdog #4 took her place for flower next.

Project Okie- day 1 flower
Skywalker- 4 weeks flower
Pure Michigan- 6 weeks flower. Buds are getting ready to foxtail. Which is fine but I can drop to a 600 and just let em fatten up

Just a hair under 20% yield from this batch on the press. I’ll get there one day but hey, no blowouts and 19.9 grams from 100 grams of flower. Then I combined with what was salvaged from last weekend’s blowouts.
Finally the Everclear wash from all those blowout bags. It’s about ready

I’ve hit both ends of the curve, dried flower with a water pan overnight seems to be the sweet spot
