I dunno brotha. I made ice water hash for years and after making the switch I can honestly say that I enjoy the dry sift more. I mean really, it's just separating the trichome from the plant matter. I think people over complicate it and romanticize about certain methods. You have no more/less control over what impurities make it in to the final product by stirring the shit out of it in a bucket for 5 minutes. Like I said above, those trichomes are being sloshed around in a bucket full of chlorophyll water which dries right on to the hash. No avoiding that.
Maybe it's just me, but I think this looks pretty good....

Looks gorgeous and after I was gifted some my reservation on quality completely shifted. Easily just as good as anything I can pull from bubble bags. That shit came in so handy too when I was outta bud.
So gift giver, again. I thank you.

Yeah, I got 3 Lemon Skunk about 2 yrs ago, ran one and wasn't impressed, so I put the others in the 'backup' bin. After I popped this one, I found a thread where people are raving about it. Too little info too late to clone it, but I might try to re-veg her. This one looks and smells real fine.
That 'sharpie' bud looks a lot like the 'totem pole' pheno of goji. Is it?

I get the small nugs and no totem pole on my Goji. I wonder what parental influence it is. Kinda wanna get another cut to do some comparison. Hint hint
Eta i know Amos wasn't directing that at me

When my daughter took a break from smoking several years back I grew that out but not DNA's it was Greenhouse Seeds ( I read they stole it from them not sure on that ). It was a joy to watch grow especially in flower the golden radiance of greasy trichromes with that loud lemony scent. Another cannabis genetic masterpiece. Maybe they are one in the same Amos honestly could not tell you.

I'll tell ya, amigo, you'd probably like the totem pole - kind of a piney / hashy taste - but I hope all my gojis from here on are the froooooty pheno.I get the small nugs and no totem pole on my Goji.

I'll tell you what, probably the two most gorgeous plants I've ever had were 2 DNA Lemon OGs that hemied at 6.5 weeks in. They both looked exactly like the advertised picture. To date they are still my only hermied bud - nearly broke my heart.

There's nothing wrong with liking or making dice, I've just never heard of anyone refer to it as better than a water sieve. It looks alright to the naked eye but that stuff is probably filled with stuff that is not heads. Personally I'm after pure heads. Full melt. The best of the best.
You are completely wrong about the control man. The fact is you have 8 bags vs 1. 3 of those 8 bags catch contaminants(not trichomes). Want to see what kind of crap is pulled from those bags?
I made an extensive Ice Water Extraction tutorial on another forum.It's actually very simple. It's not over complicated. Do it in a cold environment. Do it quickly. Dry it well. That simple.
Lets go down the list. I took macro photo's for my tutorial to show people. From 220 to 90.
220 (i have 3 220's so I use an extra bag as a contaminant catch in my system)
I don't know about you but I'd rather not have this in my hash.
190 - or this
160 - or this
120 - way better purity - I'll vape that
90 - almost pure heads. - Mmmmm dabs
also I might add. I love BUBBLEMAN but damn his teachings are poor. Try new methods you might like the outcome. No chlorophyll in my water. Very gentle stirring for 5 minutes max.
With love, Urb.
If anyone wants the link to the tutorial I will PM.

I probably would. Mine is pretty fruity to be honest. I don't think it's the strawberry sharpie or anything but definitely has a fruity under notes. Shit, a patient wants more of it, the same one I referenced earlier. Really love how this run came out. Perfect run, with zero problems.

After having the gift of dry ice hash, I can confirm it is full melt and not green at all.
Besides I don't keep anything above 160, even that in my opinion is lower grade. I use to use 8 bags but I've cut it down to 4.
I don't mind "wasting" some end product, to me it simply isn't worth the effort and isn't what I'm after anyways.

Well, I don't claim to be an expert, but again, how are there any less impurities from your 90 (or 120) micron bag, compared to mine? Only the particles that are small enough to pass through the microns end up in the hash, so what difference does it make if you are straining water through the mesh, or letting trichomes fall on to a table through the mesh? I only use one bag. Everything that I don't want in the final product collects in that bag, and everything else passes through
No matter if it is my ice water hash, or someone else's, I always cough like a mofo when I smoke ice water hash. My theory on that, again, is that you are allowing those trichome heads to slosh around in water that is saturated with chlorophyll. With dry sift methods there is no chlorophyll in the picture, so the resulting hash is as smooth as butter. No coughing at all.
If you look at traditional hash making techniques there is no water and buckets involved. Just separating trichomes from plant matter via agitation. I have yet to hear anyone break down why their method of collecting trichome heads is better than another. It's a very simple concept made to sound more difficult in pot smoking circles.

Congrats indeed! I know where I fucked up. I was house sitting, they had drought at times and suffered from heat due to me not hanging the carbon filter. Problem solved now. All preventative. I could of hung or elevated the filter (as I do now and have in the past), and I could have stopped at the pad more frequently to water/feed them. Circumstances prevented the second part.Congrats to us both; my last one was among the best. Maybe we're getting the hang of it ?
I think we got our sea legs, but there is always more to learn
