Extraction what can i do with my trimmings?

[infamousralphster]

After I harvest my herb I trim the hell out of it. If the leaf isn't covered with a rediculous amount of trichs I take it off. I refuse to smoke crap. Is there anything that I can use these trimmings for. Alot of it does have trichs probly the amount your run of the mill shwag weed does. I have heard that it is possible to make hash with it but again I am very particular about what goes in my lungs as I have a need to hold my breath for long periods of time. Nothing like a 15 foot swell to remind you how important holding your breath is. If anybody has any ideas on the subject I would appreciate it. Could it be used for edibles and if so would it be pottent. If I'm just wasting my time please let me know and ill just toss them in the trash like I planned. Thanks afn keep it mellow

Ain't that the truth!

I personally like to make hash but the thing is you get out what you put in, if it is just use the crappy leaves that you wouldn't want to smoke the hash will be poor quality as well... on the other hand if you use pure sugar leaf trimmings you can get some nice full melt hashes from it. another alternative is to make tincture out of the unsmokeable material, helps to sleep and relieves nerve pain...

Hi I recently bought some of these for my friend who helps me out.

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=180723889187&index=1&nav=SEARCH&nid=80859802495

He is very happy with them. I tried a small piece of the hash when I was away visiting and it was heavy like a tonne of bricks

The process sounded quite lengthy and involved ice, water and a large bucket. He recommended freezing the leaf before starting.

He was kicking himself for throwing leaf away in the past

Hope this helps

I use all my busura to make hash with.
Leaves with less Trichs, just gives me a lower yield. The better quality the basura, the better quality of Hash.
I personally prefer bubble bag hash, but others prefer ISO hash. I figure if all ya got is weed, water, and ice, it's safe to smoke.

P.S. I got in the habit of calling trim, Basura, in Mexico, back in the 70s.

It literally means garbage lol. There is a nice tutorial on ISO on the board, its like 6 down or just search it. And I love me some sugarleaf ISO.

What Freak meant was if you use shwag trim the hash with be garbage but if your using bomb trim then your hash will be bomb just because their isnt a huge amount of trichs doesnt mean the hash will be shitty smoke just means you will get less hash in the end less trichs means less hash. Basically when you make has you isolating all the trichcomes and turning it into something you can smoke. I would never think of throwing out trim off from any of my autos ever.

i fill capsules with coconut oil infused
with the entire plant (except the roots)
i grind all the plant in a magic bullet
stir into melted coconut oil..
pressure cook a few hours
strain,discard solids,
or use in baked goods
then fill capsules with cooled oil and
refrigerate or freeze

good for pain and as a sleep aid
dosage depends on the quality of the
plant and the size of the capsule.

nothing goes to waste with this method.
i should mention this is a means of extracting
and utilizing as much of the medicine in cannabis
as possible.
this method is very easy for a old sick guy to use.

I've used a blender to make hash in the past and it works well for small batches. The exact same process as bubble bags. My friend just bought a bubble bag system, including the machine, and we tried it out for the first time last weekend. It worked very well. We did two batches, one with some quality trimmings and one with some lesser quality. Both are equally potent, we just got more off of the better quality stuff.

I also use trimming to make Cannaoil. Put it in a crock pot, cover it with vegetable or coconut oil, and slow cook it for 12 hours. Strain it and it's ready to be used to make edibles.

jsut my i enjoy BHO alot more then ISO. if you whip the BHO for awhile under low heat all the butane isgone and no funny taste. but like i said its just my . oh ya its also sum of the most potent and also works great in butter or oil for all your cooking goodies, but fair warning BHO is alot stronger then most and when put into food it can take you by surprise. BE CAREFULL.
