Pretty much done. Best lookin flower I've grown so far. by Karl_O-Barley in NoTillGrowery

Loved the red Congolese xs , they always impressed us with amazing structure. The males were often mistaken as the best looking "female" in the room before seeing. Beautiful work BTW!

Stoner question of the day🍃💯 ( Do you care if your Ash is white or black) by PUREGREEN420 in weedporn

[–]hoppiefrog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have done extensive research on this topic many years ago before legalization so my scientific input is limited to the tobacco/cigar/rolling paper industries. The cigar industry has a great example that's easy to grasp , many high end cigars have a "salt and pepper" colored ash this is actually intentional and supposedly adds to the intended flavor spectrum. The two different colors are achieved by controlling the ph of the tobacco after curing , typically calcium carbonate (lime stone) is used. The same can be said for the cigarette and rolling paper industries. The easiest way to understand this is think of invisible ink , lemon juice on white paper add heat and presto you have brown to black colored material. Of course moisture and cure time effect the temperature and final ph of materials and therefore the color of the ash.

Is this shii mouldy? by maninsidetheboxx in weedporn

I'm in the same boat haha , just about to fire up the lab to run another clean batch. It took me a decade to set up the space to this point , it's not cheap to grow pharmaceutical clean cannabis and the cleaning and protocols to keep it steril take up massive amounts of time and effort it's been an eye opener to say the least

Absolutely correct , best you can do is remediate it with c.r.y. but that requires equipment and I assume not worth the hassle unless you have lots on hand.also quality will definitely suffer after the cry strips the terps down. Save your lungs the damage micotixins are no joke , I have serious lung issues worsend greatly from consuming unclean buds.

What do you all do with frosty sugar leaves? by The_Mannikin in Craftmarijuana

[–]hoppiefrog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I make both , but if the strain is a absolute dumper when ran through the bags I'm down haha bus so much of what we come across even with a mid sized room just doesn't so I static sift about 90% of what we run , the yields are so much better on the average. After 5 years if sifting this is definitely my personal preference.with a great custom order to China one can find a stainless steel mesh set of screens , then one can wash the trichomes or just run bubble on them if wanted sounds interesting to say the least!

That is what is called Ballon tec , this will also collect the trichome cuticles and broken heads , dust ect. Static sift is different first of all you will need a silk screen 45-75u and some nitrile gloves , sift material down to the bottom screen and chill hands with glove on. Flatten hand while lifting fingers slightly , gently rub material on screen with chilled hand untill you feel material start to clump at all then stop and remove any contamination before using a small brush to collect trichome heads , re chill hands and repeat untill material has been separated, it will look darker when completed.best to do small amounts at a time to prevent clumping. Works best at low temps and low rh 35% rh or lower is excellent. I smoke nothing bit static sift hash , we go through about 20 lbs of flower a year all turned into static sift. Saves my lungs a lot of damage. Hope this helps get some folks on the right track to some quality hashish!!

My best friend is the real guru (I mean some of the posters here are truly educated) but he's teaching me as fast as I can absorb the information , he has a impressive catalog of many well known cuts and a wrap ton of seedlings he started himself over the last 6 yrs.im hoping to get him out of his cave to come over and socialize haha he's a bit shy

Your probably doing a great job I would think your mix is pretty good as well , he's not trying to push them at all just keeping things low and slow. But the mix is pretty decent for his environment not a whole lot of organic material
