now that I'm growing my own I'll finally be able to have access to hash. I'm going to have to learn how to make it but it's pretty much the only way I'll get it. I am on the East Coast USA and I very very rarely have come across hash in the 20 years of me cannabis smokin. I have probably have had hash maybe 4 times. Twice is was reeeeaaalllly good and twice it was bunk. I really wish it was more accessible around me. I just don't ever see anyone with it

awesome to be growing your own - some places traditionally dont ever get much hash sadly but where there's a will there's a way Smile

looking forward to seeing you make your own .. lots of help and support here @percys whene you need bro 

Time to pop some more beans 😗

@fungiwillsavetheworld920 don’t throw away any of your trim mate. I think most people keep their hash for themselves. Plenty of hash making information on here to help. I have watched all of Frenchy’s tutorials too.

I wouldn’t go as far as to say a full set is a waste of money.

Yeah you can make hash with a four bag set no problem I have.

It’s down to personal taste I think like I really like the 90u/73u bags more than I like the 45u/25u bags.

when it’s mainly 45u it’s nice but after years of smoking the full set i wouldn’t go back to a four bag.

not to be a problem.

And I definitely hope to see some wicked hash coming out that washing machine 👍

@mix Why don’t you like the 45u and 25u bags? Is it because they clog up more or is the hash quality lower?

How does everyone dry their hash? According to the Frenchy tutorial videos I am meant to sift my washed pressed dry hash onto shelves covered with parchment paper to dry in a room with very low humidity. Sound correct?

unless you've a freeze drier ! (i wish!)

the above is a good way to dry .. and pretty much same as me

some freeze first to allow easier cutting up of what would be wet hash (collected trichromes)...

i used to press as much water out of mine then dry on parchment as above .. then its already semi pressed and super hash (obs depends on quality of inputs)..

if i wanna roll the hash after with hot water bottle technique i wont press when wet but freeze, then cut up, then dry, then roll/press once evenly dry after a couple weeks.

hope that helps Jim bro.

 

To all hashmakers here...

Its great to see so many great hash makers here Smile and such knowledge as we are clearly all mad Frenchie fans lol bless his soul !

to clarify some of my thoughts with regards to bags and sizes.... please debate anything that doesnt sound right or where you think different .. this is helpful to push our knowledge forward and help clarify or challenge our thoughts and views

diff plants can produce diff size heads of several types of trichrome... we are typically looking for the capita-stalked bulbous looking ones....

so there is no hard and fast rule to fit all situations imo ... just general or usual expectations..

How plants (and trichromes)  have grown (or not!) will affect collection hugely and what each size bag may or may not collect....

Therefore similar to how our plants of the same type can and do differ in their expression of how and where they were grown, so too will their trichrome production and how best to collect them for an individual grower in their own home / environment...

Diff strains will produce diff size heads so may suit diff size bags for collection...

Full spectrum hash - if you want full spectrum you need all the trichrome from all the bags together - another technique where one only needs 1 or 2 bags ... or could use or a full set.....more to understand better the contents of their sievings!

Which bag makes the best hash ?

Answer: in theory any of them could depending on start material

Frenchie and others has stated he usually finds the sweet spot around 70 - 120 microns..he also states all bags can produce premium 6 star (material dependant!)

I have found this also in my limited experiences.. this isnt to say i havnt made great hash with the 45 or the 25 but i find the 25 nothings left by then and the 180 often has contaminants of plant matter ... 

imo experince i have found the biggest and the smallest bags to be a 'poor' compared to other sizes and the quality lower.. this isnt to say your experiences have been the same or that i am right or wrong lol 

other factors to consider..

How much time you have 

Budget (this is why i suggested a full set COULD be a waste of SOME money and didnt mean to imply a waste of money -my apologies !  this is relative to your budget...) if you have £700 to spare for a full set of originall bubblebags bags awesome - if not you can make do with 2 or3 cheap bags and a 220 for your buds / trim (£40 or £50).. or anywhere in between .. full set of cheaper bags £100 ish or whatever suits (the expensive original bags do last longer btw !)

its great to chat and hear peoples experiences and views on hash making. Really glad we share this passion Smile

i have some questions for us all...

Which strains has anyone found the best 'dumpers' so far in their experience?

which bag / bags have you found make the biggest collections and the best quality collections, if any ?

Which is your favourite way to smoke / ingest hash?

Does anyone measure the water temp when making ice hash?

Describe your first time smoking hash .. 

What's your favourite 'hierloom' or 'landrace' type hash?

 

many thanks all

hash comp will be opened tomorrow with full details so look out for that post 😉

Time to pop some more beans 😗

Just looking at a cheap set 5gallon ones £35 on eBay bubble bag dude ones,is that too cheap? They look ok tho. I was also thinking about making another bucket with a tap on like the bottom of my worm bin and using this as a make shift washer. Good idea or not?

@chillbert I am very new to hash making so my first grow trim was from C99 and a Wedding Cake x OG. I used a 220u work bag and my catch bags were 160u and 45u. I used cut off round 5 gallon or 20L buckets. I also have a catch tub under all my buckets and pump to send the cold water back to my washing machine. After finishing I pumped all my water out through my 220u and 25u to catch any missed smaller trichomes. 220u to keep the plant matter out.

When it’s dry I will smoke it in a joint but I might buy a banger and carb cap to try dabbing it.

Towards the end of my washing I ran out of ice and all I had was frozen 1.25L plastic bottles full of water. So in they went and I just kept washing as normal. Worked just like ice and the trim kept producing.

I use these bags in all mesh style. They seem pretty good. My setup has the bags I am working with separated by other half cut buckets. Then the bottom bucket has holes in the base draining over a grill into a collection tub. I am using a portable washing machine though, not mixing by hand.
