Yah. I've learned a lot in a short time. Basically by making mistakes. Lol. Now I'm wondering if it will still produce due to being no fan leaves... Hard to find info on my particular situation probably because most people would never have made that mistake. I was just following that Uncle Ben's...

Miracle grow potting soil. I think yellowing was root rot due to lack of adequate drainage. (same as over watered I guess could be similar yellowing leaves). It's been transplanted and added some myco.

Prom date strain Photo Outdoors Basically east coast weather Thanks!

First, this thing shouldn't probably have been topped as it's been in stress couple of weeks. Also should have been topped way sooner. And lastly, if topped should have topped a couple of nodes up. Didn't even think/notice fan set missing until later in the day. Yah, I'm burnt. Anyways, lesson...

What's up? Anybody in Wheeling WV? Just back in USA after 13 years in Thailand...

Best idea I heard all day.

I wouldn't leave it in water for a straight month. This is asking for trouble, not only chlorophyll will break down during that time. I do a quick cure of already dried material, so if dried properly, the chlorophyll should already be mostly broken down.

Loss is almost nil. Talking about .5% at most. Against a 20-25% increase in potency by weight. Unfortunately doesn't take out chlorophyll, this is a myth. Chlorophyll is not water soluble.

Look who's running their mouth, you, kid. You sound dumber than a rock if you actually believe that inhaling smoke from ANYTHING is healthy for your lungs. A true moron.

Or you could do some research about what happens to lungs when you light things on fire and inhale the smoke. Nice try, kid.

Smoking terps certainly not good for your health... If you value smell and taste over health, burning clean, and smoothness, then not for you for sure. If you're ingesting, also no point to it.

So, the reason I do it is to make it more potent by weight... You lose 20-25% or so weight because getting out 95% of anything water soluble... For me it's a health thing. 25% less smoke from anything seems huge if considering large amounts of time. It also burns muuuuch cleaner, to the point...

This thread came as a top result in Google... Just wanted to note that for already mostly dried herb, the vast majority of "bad" stuff will be out within 24 hours and even 12 should get it "clean enough". Make sure changing water every 6 hours and using plenty of water so saturation point isn't...

Okay. Did it. IMO very successful. Couple of bonuses is that it lost that cat piss "hayish" smell. Still has a slight scent, but no hint of that nasty dirt herb smell. Also burns to pure white ash instead of carbonized black. Less harsh; actually smokable now. Subjectively seems...

Thanks for your reply. Makes sense... I should have specified this is brick stuff that I acquired, not fresh herb (I looked for a more appropriate forum but didn't find.) Does your process still apply?
