How soon can i blast after picking?

[mikeb437]

Gonna make some oil from my crop. How soon after i pick can i blast away in a dish? Does it need to be fully dried or cured?

Best quality oil will come from properly dried and cured trim or buds. If you blast wet your gonna have a nasty mess full of chlorophyll.

But the best quality ice water hash comes from fresh material if ya got some bubble bags

I like the bho myself,, Thanks dude

Fresh frozen bho is fantastic.

Whats that?! Explain the process please

Chop buds, trim, freeze (fresh & wet) then blast when good and frozen.
I haven't personally tried it but I've smoked others results, and it's extremely tasty/potent.

Just don't grind anything fresh and you'll be fine... Keeping it frozen locks up the water/remaining moister and anything water soluble.

I blast butane all over my plants from day one! Can't get enough of that shit!

Freeze everything and use the thermos technique.

For me i always liked to run the trim after i dried it for 2 days via a fan quick easy.. yeild was low around 10-12% but the flavor was kaboooooom! awesome!

i recently did my first butane extraction. i ran about half my entire crop (4/9 plants) of Sweet Tooth and Blue Cheese, freshly harvested and frozen immediately after processing.

Chop buds, trim, freeze (fresh & wet) then blast when good and frozen.

i broke the flowers into .5"-1" sized pieces after freezing so the resin doesn't adhere to my gloves, then loaded up my extraction chamber and froze again using a cooling bath. i soaked three ounces at a time for three hours each at around -40* C/F and pulled nearly 54 grams from about 9 ounces of freshly harvested and frozen material.

i'm probably at least slightly biased now :smug: but i MUCH prefer live resin. i did choose this method for a reason after all; anyone with a sense of taste/smell can easily tell the difference between live resin versus dried/cured extracts.

Oh, so I'm not the only one who uses it as a foliar spray? The stuff rocks at increasing potency!

54 grams after de-waxing??
do you think doing the fresh and freeze way gives higher yields than if you cure the bud first I am really interested in tasting and smelling the difference eventually!

well, no. i did my extraction at -40* so i don't think i dissolved much wax in the first place. the product had great clarity and vaporized very clean. besides, it's for recreational use so i'm happy with my extract without dewaxing for now.

Thought I'd put my foot in my mouth here, had to try the fresh frozen bho with trim. It IS very nice potent almost trippy bho. Make your head spin a little more then normal for sure.

For real? Never heard of using butane as a foliar? During flowering the whole duration or what? Now I'm interested. Thanks for new info

From what i understand is that the colder everything thing is, the butane will stay in its liquid form, if everything is warm the butane turns into a gas form and evaporates before it carries the oils out of ur product, im sure there a more detail explanation but shit is 7am and i ain't haven't made it off the toilet yet lmao
