Hand-rubbed hashish can be made at any point in the life cycle of your garden
where there are visible capitate stalked trichomes. The prime time is during or
after peak floral production (approximately two weeks prior to harvest date). At
this point, with each rubbing you will be removing mostly mature trichomes, and
as new trichomes are produced leading up to finishing time, multiple hand-rubbed
harvests can be realized. The later in the life cycle of the plant, the more
leaf debris you should expect in your charas.

Take any bathroom, smoke, snack, or drink breaks before you begin this
procedure. The process of hand-rubbing hashish produces a sheen of sticky
hashish coating the exam gloves (and possibly forearms, depending upon plant and
garden dimensions) that is more than capable of removing body hair from any body
part you touch.

After donning your exam gloves, begin by grasping the cola loosely (imagine you
are picking sides for a game of stick ball with open fingers) and rubbing firmly
up and then back down the length of the cola. Make as much contact with trichome
bearing surfaces as you can, working slowly and evenly up and down the cola.
Trichomes are generally tenacious, and the point of hand-rubbing is to burst the
trichomes as you rub to collect, so you should apply a decent amount of hand
pressure. If you find yourself pulling whole calyxes or guard leaves off of the
plant, or if your collections seem "watery," you are grasping too hard.

When you have worked your way through the garden, remove the exam gloves and
place them into a freezer. After a few hours in the cold, the resin will peel
from the surface of the latex easily. The resultant resin can be pressed and
smoked or vaporized at your leisure.
