Then I guess she isn't done ! Looks a little like it is beginning to reflower that is why I said it looked done but the trichs don't lie .

Reflower means the white hairs that are growing out of the tops of the bud. It is usually a sign of the plant being done or temps too hot . The buds look nice and finished then all of a sudden she pops new white hairs . Reflower.

Gotcha thanks for letting me know...........it's been really hard not to chop but she started to fatten up late and I don't want to cut my gains short especially before hitting 60 days and having the trichs all clear.........

i think if you threw em out and didn't flower them , the what if would kill you. Especially since you really want glue . Grow them just big enough to take a clone and flip em . You use coco so you can grow in a 1 gallon potter forever . Lol well not forever but long enough .

I think the best thing to do now is at least let them sex out and see what I get in females.........
Then go from there.....I should be able to leave them in the solo cups for that right?

Oh chit, sorry man. I wound up typing up a novel in the bubble hash thread that got started on like page 5 of this thread haha
http://rollitup.org/t/lets-talk-bubble-hash-d.914088/
But I'll copy and paste it here too since you were inquiring about it.
First I set out my towel and put my 8"x8" 25 micron press screen on top of the towel.
I use the last 3 bags of my 8 bag set which are 73,45 and 25 micron bags. I use a 220 micron bag for my beater bag. I'll load up approx 2 oz of scrub buds and trim from harvest at a time. I fill up a cooler with a bag of ice from the store and fill it with about 1-1.5 gal of water and I let it sit and get real cold for about 20 minutes. While Im waiting I line my 5 gal bucket with the 25 micron bag,then the 45, then the 73. I place the 220 micron beater bag in last. Once all set up I put a layer of ice to cover the bottom of the bag in the bucket, then add the trim material, then pour the remainder of ice and water on top. Let it sit for about 2 minutes to freeze up all the trich's before you start beating it up. After a couple minutes I use a 28" wooden sledge hammer handle to beat up the mix in the bucket sure to get everything mixed in well with the ice. I mash and stir for about 8-10 minutes. Once mashed up I'll let it sit for about 15 minutes to let the trichs that have frozen and broken away from the plant material to settle to the bottom and works its way through the screens in the bags. After that I pull the beater bag with all the ice and plant material out and place it off to the side.
NOW COMES THE FUN PART....
I'll take the 73 micron bag up from the bucket and spray everything in the bottom of the bag to "consolidate" all of the trichs to one area on the bag. Once I have gathered all of the trichs I place the bottom of the bag on one half of the towel and the towel wicks the water from the trichs in the bag. This makes it easier to use a spoon to scoop the "patty cake" out of the bag. Place the cakes onto the press screen that is on the towel. The towel will wick the water from the cakes and scrapings you put on it. There will be remenants that you didnt get with the spoon so you use a spray bottle to consolidate the remainder into an area again to scrape it out with the spoon. Repeat the towel method again and scrape out the last bits.
Repeat all of these steps for the last 2 bags and you will have 3 grades of beautiful solvent/chemical/byproduct free hash. Let it all sit on the press screen for half a day, then move the screen from the towel to a piece of cardboard and let it dry out for a few days. Once I let it dry out for a few days, I'll break up the patties to make sure they arent retaining any moisture. At this point the first 2 grades of hash break down into grit rather easily. The last grade which is usually the most blonde....not so much. Its more gooey like a full melt but still managable by hand.
If you arent a fan of 1st & 2nd grade hash, you can turn it into rosin with a hair straightener, coffee filter and some parchment paper. Super dabs of some potent rosin!!
I usually get about on average 15 grams or so of hash from 2 oz of plant material.
From those 15 grams I can get about 3-4g of rosin for about a 25% return.
This was just from the first run of the 73 micron bag and the rosin I got from the 8g cakes of bubble hash.
I also wanted to add that the beater bag with all the plant material and ice in it that you put off to the side can be run a second time and squeeze a few more grams out of it before you toss it. You dont have to do all the waiting with this round like you do on the first run.
I'm sure there are better ways, but this works great to supply me a personal stash and enough to give away to my friends & family.

Nice write up hydro. One comment (as much a question as a comment), I was under the impression that 73 micron is the "gold" standard of the various grades that are sorted with the bags. If this is the case then by having the 73 be the largest bag used (aside from the work bag), you are technichally "contaminating" what would be the purest grade hash with what should have been filtered out with the slightly larger bags. I definitely notice a difference between the quality of hash separated by the 90 and the 73 bags. Might be worth trying a run with the 90 micron bag as an additional filter and see if it makes a difference in your 73 micron product??
