1st run no melt

[TheTrichomeKid]

With a one gallon kit mixing by hand seems to work just fine, so no need for an electric mixer.

I have the 5gal bubblenow. Ill be doing a new batch with 4-6 run time with popcorn shake and see how it comes out.

I did another run with 6 mins Instead and it turned out pretty good. its a lot more tan then green. Hopefully ill get it to melt this time around.

So my first real run with trim turned out pretty decent. I ran the mixer for 6-9 mins tops each cycle and 3 cycles per batch. I didn't freeze the trim although i should have but thats for my next try. I let the ice and water sit for about 20 mins before I added the trim to get the water as cold as possible with 6 min cycle time (with just ice and water). Then after I added the material I let it sit for 10 mins without touching it at all. first cycle 6 min and sencond 6-9 and third was 9mins. my 120 bag was impressively large yeild every time but I haven't weighed anything yet.

I do have a question though. How fine am i supose to be chopping up the hash to dry? After a few days the stuff turned a nice color but i noticed the larger chunks hardened and were darker then the really fine chopped stuff. Weird enough to me that the larger stuff has melt to it but the finner stuff just burns.

I'll have pictures soon when im not so tired. I just want to keep experimenting until I know first hand which is the best method for myself

Also does anyone squeeze out the water from the wet mixture into your bags after? I know it's not the best thing to do at all but I wanted to see if it would yeild anything decent so I set up the 220 180 and a 45 and literally squeezed the wet material to ring some water (i did jsust a few squeeze) and ended up yielding a small ball half the size of a razor blade in width

Well.. sometimes the quality of the resin head is just not there.. It really depends on how it was grown and wether or not the grower understood the need to allow the trichome head to mature.....

Could you expand on what you mean by "how it was grown", I understand watching the color change of the maturing glandular head of the trichome, but are you talking about something in addition to this? Any for a med. grower?

Thanks again for sharing the knowledge here, much appreciated B.M.
