Ok so here we are. I had a mediocre yield from an expected mega harvest ( like i expect each time i do one !).
Being of the Low and slow dry persuasion , seeing those beautiful crusty little sugar leaves snipped out and sat in a bin bag they cannot be wasted!. I am.rinsing what i can from all those months of electricity, stress , a bedroom waterfall and a whole myriad of issues along the way.
Strains in the trim are All Barneys farm Seeds and are Laughing buddha , peyote critical , g13 haze , Utopia Haze and Liberty Haze. All were beautiful bud producing ladies and covered in trichromes so here goes
ITEMS
25 Litre tub/bucket.
ice bubble bags x 1set(6x with drying sheet).
1/4 refuse bag of trim.
stirring stick.
4x bags of ice.
15 litres fresh water
Popeye's right arm ( for stirring not watching redtube while waiting for mix to settle after stirring !!!)
A realistic couple of hours.
I usually discard the second highest numbered bag as it doesnt seem to be beneficial to the grading between that one and the highest micron one.
With bucket ready and the bags put inside with the smallest numbered bag (25micron)being the first put on and the highest number put in last (220micron).
I put a thin layer of Ice cubes in to cover the bottom of the bag, i then placed Half of my trim ( approx 2oz).
On top of this i put the remainder of the ice cubes bag and 1 more bag on top of the trim.
I then put water into the buckets slowly to allow for the screens being able to let it through them into the bucket.
Once Filled I let the mix settle to allow the water to keep dropping temperature and freeze the trichromes. After 10 mins i began stirring and agitating the mixture , making sure to use the cubes to batter the plant matter and break off the now frozen trichromes.
I agitated and stirred for about 20 mins and continued for 2 hours with this cycle.
Once i was happy that i had got what i could , it was time for the fun to begin.
The first bag out was filled with thawing , icy, mulch. The water drains out fairly quickly on this bag thankfully so is easy to empty and put aside.( can do a second run or other use).
The next bag out is the start of the Hash collection so some slight swirls while it drains away can help keep the hash together and on the mesh for easier collection. Use a kitchen spoon to pull all the leftover hash into a collectable lump and remove to your mesh drying screen or parchment. I pressed mine by hand at this point to remove what water i could on a towel. This will be your lowest grade and may have some plant material knocking about in small traces.
The next bag contained the major yield part of the process with very nice quality hash emerging from the draining froth
This is grade 2 and smokes lesh harsh than the 3.
The Last bag can take a while to drain but this one has some excellent hash floating around trying to settle. I slowly swirled this until my arms ached but got quite a nice amount of top quality hash for my efforts.
The second half of the bin liner trim was processed using the same way.
All in all 2oz of beautiful quality Hash from what a lot of people bin is bliss. This has turned the whole harvest of my Barneys girls into a great one.
Hope this quicky helps someone tempted but too worried about wasting their efforts and that you get the same results safely.
Go on , give it a go if you havent tried it before.
