Hey Dab Master
You have a press right ?? When you prep your bud for pressing do you press it green or do you dry it ,cure it and then press it ?? Everything coming together for you .
I do have a press and I don't really squish flower lol, we have found that for the time it takes and the amount we are doing that pressing kief is the only way to go, the return is much higher for the same amount of squishy squish. But when we have done flower it is best to do it about half way through drying, like 40% moisture left in the plant. What happens if you press it too green is that the water and oil want to mix and it makes it messy, you can freeze the buds fresh and make frozen(fresh frozen rosin) But I have never really liked it. When you do it halfway through you haven't lost all the terps due to drying and you don't have enough water to bust through the cell walls when you squish. This is just what we have found through experimentation though
