Nugsmasher and lab analysis

[bigunyun]

I got a nugsmasher and made some rosin. I had it analyzed along with the flower i was smashing. I smashed 4.5 g of flower and got 1.00 g rosin exactly. The flower tested out at 21.64% total cannabinoids, and the rosin tested at 89.13%. So if my math is right, that means the nugsmasher is 91.5% efficient. Damn.

you pulled more terpenes out by pressing lol

Damn your terps are non existent in both?! How do you grow?

that bud was grown indoors in soil... those terps are pretty similar to the other flower this lab has tested... what are you getting on terps?

4 to 6 and some change. Depending on the strain lowest I get it upper 2’s

hm wow which lab do you use? the one I used publishes their "public" test reports, and the highest terp in any of their flower is just under 2%...

they list over 3000 samples tested, but none that I see have terps over 2.5%

I double checked the math, 91.53% of the THC in the flower was recovered, that's amazing for solventless!

thanks yeah I thought so!!

Buds testing, before that I used iron labs in Michigan.

how do you get your terps so high? Is that genetics or your grow setup somehow?

When growing I focus on facilitating terpene development Sulphur helps drive it but you need certain trace elements for the ion exchange and breakdown.
