Thank you for the explaination. It sounds like something we should consider. Glad your garden is doing wellHeya folks. Lookin' good out there.
Bubble bags are what ya use to make water extracted hash...aka "bubble hash". http://www.bubblebag.com/ (there are many other brands out there...these are expensive but built well)
Definitely a MUST for a garden of your size. You can run all of that larf/trim and end up with some seriously smoke-able goodness. Thanks to "legalization", (and the serious decimation of the market for small time growers here) I am planning on running most of my harvest through the bags this year. If it works out as planned we will be smoking hash all year long vs. flowers. Should be an epic event (at least for us) and a HUGE amount of work as it will certainly be the largest harvest we've >ever< pulled off in our 25+ years of growing this plant. Gotta love the OD!!
No worries about "rain" here. Our challenge here is frost and freeze. It's definitely time here to start thinking about some plastic to cover things up at night.... ah...what fun!
good luck on the finish!
Thank you!Nice pictures , looks like the front buds are already finishing . My strain I've been growing just happened to be a fast finisher flower wise - buds . If I put the plants out to early outdoors as clones they'll flower , where as other strains put out at the same time will veg . . I have to put the plants in the ground late for our growing period here . I would have liked to see the plants finish in Oct . for a larger yield , but would have had to take the chance of dealing with the rain and bud rot and would have taken a possible loss due to rot . By the time the rains came I was pretty much through trimming and was in the curing stage so all turned out great .
MrsBudBogart , scoops right , Bubble Bags is a brand name of hash making bags .
With the size of your grow you really need them so not to waste any of your great work in growing . The reason I use Bubble Bags is , I make alot of hash , in doing so I've tried many different brands . I didn't like the other brands , I either lost to much product due to screen size - mesh of the bags you process the hash through . Some of the other brands I used , the plastic inner lining started to come off in the hash and that's a bad thing . Cheap bags are not the way to go . The Bubble Bags I can use , by myself , working alone , which is hard to do , to make hash with and produce the a great product and not lose what I worked so hard to create .
They are a little costy but are of quality and have been around for a long time as a brand well respected for quality . I use a 4 bag kit . That's really all you need for what we're making . I get 5 gallon bucket bags . If you need it I can post the last time I did hash . I took pictures so I could show my friend how to make hash from his plants by himself if he has to do it alone , not fun to do it alone . It's nice to have help which you'll have and that's a good thing :) . I don't have help .
I don't live near my friend or I'd help him .
I took shots of the process with me doing it alone , so he could just look at the pictures and see what I did from start to finish so he doesn't throw away his trim or if he doesn't cure the buds right or the plants don't finish out in time for winter , he can still salvage his grow with some nice hash to smoke all winter .
Looks like a lot of work but a great end product! Thank you for taking the time to post all this good stuff!I'll post how I do it here . I don't see any where else on the website to post it , plus you can come to your own post to get the idea of what I do to make bulk hash , if 5 gallons bags is concidered bulk . It is for my grows :) .
The first pictures are what I use when I make the hash , I use 2 buckets as I'm doing this by myself . The white bucket has holes in it and is doubled up with another bucket underneath it . It's where I do the hash . The orange container I use first as it has no holes in it . When I put the water I will need to process the hash with , it won't all pour out as it would if I put the bags directly into the white container as the hole in the white container lets the water drain to well at first , so the orange conatiner with no holes in it . This way I don't have to hold the bags the full time the water drains from the bads . When you have 2 people , one can hold the bags as the water drains to speed up the process .
You'll see what I mean about water draining and why as we go through the pictures . I'm not sure what the limit of posting pictures here a day so I'll post what I can as I can .
This is the way I do water-ice processing . No one taught me to do this . I've just done it this way for years and it works great .
