I would LOVE to do it that way. but I dont have a big enough space for the hanging of the whole plant. so I am basically cutting it in nodes... and hanging it wishbone style over the string...if that makes any sense lol. I will be taking pictures of the whole process. I wont be starting it for another 7 hours or so....whenever my wife gets home from work because she wants to help lol.

I will gladly take suggestions on how to make this better. I was thinking of having a fan blow into one side of the drying box so that it has constant airflow but I have no idea if its detrimental or what. this is my first drying experience that wasnt on a farm in the middle of nowhere haha.
I had a fan circulating air but not directly blowing on it, if that makes sense like you can use a pc fan as an exhaust fan and it will suck air in from everywhere to keep the air flow going.

yup, I will probably get a 4" desk fan, and have it blowing about a foot away from the one side flap so that it just exchanges the air but doesnt create much wind.

I am pretty excited because this is the first outdoor grow in our house in the Okanagan. we have lived here for 5 years, and we moved into a place last fall that has PERFECT conditions to grow using sunlight. I have since taken it a step further and made the growing box (a few pages back). to grow year around. but next summer, I will be doing another outdoor grow FOR SURE.

I Wish I could grow outside or at all in Texas.... Too much to lose though

I hear ya man. there is zero way I would grow anywhere outside of BC haha. I used to grow when we lived in alberta but not outdoors, just with shitty lighting. it was amateur at best. but here in BC no one really cares where I live. so I have them in pots on my back stoop from 7am - 7pm daily from june - sept. then drying them. the BEST part, its that when its cloudy or windy etc for long periods of the day i can just bring the plants into my south facing sunroom 3 feet away from said stoop. the minute we saw the sunroom and backyard we were sold that this is our growing area haha.

you idiots.... "dabs" is the WAY you smoke the shatter, wax, oil, resin, sap etc. etc.

NOT just tokes of the substance.

so if I drop a eyelit size piece of wax into a metal bowl and smoke it thats a dab? GTFO. know what you are talking about so you dont sound like a mook.

sorry, but everyone calling everything dabs pisses me off to no end.

rant over.
Hey bud, is that better?

well, I hate to say it but you're wrong. its been tested etc. in WSH, COL & BC to the point of knowing exactly what is in your product. there are far more things you shouldnt be smoking in the plant matter than in the extract concentrate.

there are also extracts that dont use any butane to get the substance out of the plant....and to me, they taste the exact same.

purging definition:
a. To clear (a container or space, for example) of something unclean or unwanted: purge a water pipe of air.
b. To remove or eliminate (unwanted physical matter)

so even by definition, its clean.

I agree. I can def tell when my wax isnt clean. My lungs can tell when it is. Theres no substitution for primo quality. Much cleaner then flower for those that can handle it. The headband i have right now is someof the best tasting shatter Ive had.

How's the Hawaiian? Nothing better to me than a nice uplifting sativa with lots of energy

I have been making BHO for 15 years and personally, i would take a good honey oil over anything. far more versatile than a shatter but just as clean.
i have made oil since the late 80s.i made bho for a while .it is more convenient to make but i get free isopropyl from work so i still make it old school style.

the batch in the picture i washed the weed with ice cold isoproply for about 5 mins max.then ran it thru a series of filters to remove any plant matter and put the bowl out in the sun with a silk screen over the top for about 8 hours.fruit flies love alcohol so you got to screen it off.by then the alcohol is almost all evaporated and i brought it in and finished it on the stove.low heat until the vapours stop rising and the oil bubbles and thickens up .i usually do the whole thing on the stove but in the summer you dont really have to .plus who wants to stand there breathing alcohol vapours all day.i could have used butane and been done in a half hour but fuck going around to 5 different stores buying cans of butane like a meth head when we have multiple 205l drums of isopropyl at work. butane is much more flamable and if not purged properly is not really that good for you

Can anyone tell me the fucking big deal with blue dream. This is the 3rd different time I've gotten it from places in CO, and every time I just don't understand the big deal.
