Got some pics,."need another week"...

Tangerine dream (damage from UVA got stuck on)




Scope

 

[ninjadip]

Extracting oils will always be in the 1-10% range from yield input, afaik.

You ever done ice extraction? Getting excited to try it out

The plan so far
Chop plant, bucking leaving any frosty trim intact.
Vacuum sealing bud, freezing for at least a day

Presoak buds for 30 minutes,
Proceed with agitation inside of 5 layer bags,
Extract all levels of hash one layer at a time, lightly squeeze water out using cheese cloth or a micron bag,
FReeze hash
Repeat at least 3 times with same plant material

Take hash out of freezer, grind over microplane onto parchment paper on top of cardboard(should make powder) air dry

I think those are the steps

I've not personally been able to yet, but pretty familiar with the process.

Then take the hash and squish that,
That's some primo.

Or put the hash in Saram for a month, for piatella hash, also some primo.

Extract of an extract = filtration, purity.

I've frozen mine overnight. Not sure if that was long enough.

G$ shared a trick with the bags. Put the trim or buds in the middle size bag then put it in the freezer. (I don’t recall the micron size atm. I’ve left it for an hour and/or over night.) Then shake it over a white board for collection. I shake it over the trim bin. After a while, say 10 minutes, put it back into the freezer. Repeat until it’s no longer worth the trouble.

This is just a quick hack to get the kief. But the point is an hour in the deep freeze should be okay for this but over night should be fine for bubble hash.

AI reply: Freeze cannabis for at least 24 hours (best 24–72 hours) before making bubble hash to make trichomes more brittle and improve yield. Store in airtight, light‑proof containers in the freezer until use.

Using a vacuum freezer is best, but can just use a regular fridge freezer

 

[Costanza]

Funny I saw this today I have 8 plants hanging in my basement and had a malfunction with my light timer and the entire batch revegged on me so I need to hash it to salvage it. I have the bubble dude machine and the bags but the two times I tried making hash before I got such horrible yields I failed miserably

 

[Pipecarver]

How many washes with each batch? I've seen that it takes at least 3 rewashes with the same material to get most of it out

This is the one video i watched, seems easy enough. Yeah I'm sure there is loss, but i want to make my own vapes, and making rosin from dried material didn't burn right. Everyone says i need to start with bubble hash, then press that for something good enough to vape.

Ya, I washed 3 times each time I've made it and he got back a bit less than he I did. Maybe I was expecting too much. He also let it sit much longer than I did between washes. I didn't look like his bud was frozen first either. The video did get me a bit excited to try again. Sure would beat picking seeds out to roll joints with this stuff.

I bought a cheap vacuum bag sealer just for this test operation. Figure i already dropped a few hundred on the press, might as well go down all the rabbit holes lol

Yeah I'm a little excited, not going to lie. Also it gets me out of trim jail

Yeah not sure if I'm going to let soak that long, but the guy does get a great second and third yield, maybe because of this extra long soak

Should have around a pound to try this out with, will do my best to document and share results and insight.

The input quality makes a big difference too, some genetics will just squish better, and depending how "good" the plant was grown, how much brix it produces, cannabinoids,etc.

[GrumpAzz]

Man i really want to leave both in there and see what happens. If they will eventually be in solution won't they be both be able to get all the nutes they need?

I can't say that one would or wouldn't snuff out the other, but those stalks get HUGE eventually. That's for sure.

All in all.. I'd say it'll depend on your planned veg time. A month? Do it. 2 months? Give one the axe. Maybe wait another week or 2 before you decide which to snip. Clone it... fuck it.

Figure if i have two i don't need to top them? Just kinda train them away from each other... Now I'm thinking that in my head and maybe I'm crazy cause they will be all over each other.

Just hate killing a perfectly good little plant lol but i guess i have to

You can definitely grow both of them in that, just need to supply for the needs of double.

To add -

The vacuum freezer will pull the moisture out of the buds, where as a regular freezer will not.

That moisture affects the process as well.

Some just put their buds in liquid nitrogen for a bit too.

Extract & squish



Pull the moisture, freeze to turn the silicon trichome heads into "solid beads" that knock off with agitation, the cold keeps them "solid", collect the trichome heads = money

Already pulled out, saw roots spreading in the bottom and better to get it now then have dead unconnected root matter in there later, maybe i started two weeks early, just trying to cut down on the slow time when starting

That first couple weeks from seed to system does feel like forever.

 

[ninjadip]

She getting there, one's done, just waiting for the other girl to shut up already with the pistols, damn lights are almost off for god sake

 

[ninjadip]

On the short list for mini upgrades, damn stock intercooler smaller than my dick lol
They have a million on ebay around $100

 

[BlueCollarBob]

Maybe some neoprene for vibrations, it's cheap, or some sound deadening material like dynamat. The dynamat has a better surface and has built in adhesive on the application side. You could wrap the sides and bottom of the box with that and should do the trick.

Lined my entire last car with the stuff, really awesome, kills all vibrations. You will need an application roller.

It's really great for behind the license plate holder to kill that vibration from big bass. The more you can hit every surface the quieter it will be inside the cabin, but that's extra from what you are asking lol

Another option would be to spray the box with rhino liner, but not sure that would completely work, but it sure looks cool!! Lol


Making me miss my old baby...View attachment 113386View attachment 113387View attachment 113388

Just came across this and remembered you guys talking about car audio. Ed, Edd & Eddy always cracked me up"

 

[ninjadip]

Just came across this and remembered you guys talking about car audio. Ed, Edd & Eddy always cracked me up"

So funny got halfway to change rear speakers tonight and couldn't get the rest of the back panel out before i lost sunlight (no garage) so had to put it all back together...

Then somehow the universe put a YouTube video in my suggested feed that showed me how to remove the top half of the back seat which is what i now see i need to do get the panel the rest of the way out to change 6x9s...

Oh the stuff i do just for good sound lol

After that only stock speakers left are the pillar tweeters, which i definitely need to make it a bit brighter in there. Anyone have any 3/4 or 1" tweeters they don't need???

 

[ninjadip]

Researching how to get this baby tuned to have new mapping when i install the catless downpipe. Not a lot of options for this old baby it looks like, only one guy can do it and goes by the name of mario kart, no joke lol

Runs a service called RPM tuning, you download your ecu map email it to him, he does some magic with whatever you tell him you have upgraded and emails a new one back that you can flash,

 

[ninjadip]

Going to go down another rabbit hole to see what diy options exist, already have the canbus cable coming to let me use some windows software to poke around.

Trust me, I'll do extensive research before changing anything


What the cable can do, comes with in inpa software CD

I started getting into that on my Meanstreak 1500. But then I fell in love with the BMW R1200GS. Now it’s in the garage waiting for me to fall back in love. Lol

Lorenzo/mario kart just got back with me, wow one day reply is always a good sign

This is the tool i need to download the ECU dump, and to do the flash with the new file after they do their magic, interesting

 

[BlueCollarBob]

So, I got curious and poked around a little. What you are wanting to do looks to be a lot more doable than I realized. Pretty neat. Especially, if you think you're going to get results worth the investment. I didn't compare it with the scanner you shared, but I think this might be another option (along with a pc). I have no idea how the two compare. The one you researched may be much better, or they may be similar:

TOPDON RLink J2534

I've been researching more and more as well. It looks like if i want go the diy route, I'll need the ECU dump with one of these tools like you showed, which is always raw binary and sometimes encrypted. It appears there are a few software solutions to change mappings like fuel air ratio, timing, etc.. but what is needed and most critical is a "definition file" or a file that tells the software where in that raw file the mappings are so you only mess with that and leave everything else as is.

I can't seem to find any definition files on the up and up web, and may have to search some nefarious places, i found one such source but not sure about the legitimacy.

http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=17277.0title=

Then if i use an incorrect mapping file, make changes and flash that I'm fucked and hopefully a reflash of the original dump restores the ECU.

Makes me nervous for sure.

Mario route wants me to buy the device i showed which is only a "slave" tool that only lets him see the file, and he wants $700 to do the "tuning" remotely. But all the forms swear this guy is the only one to trust for this type of remote tune.

I'm also contacting some local shops that specialize in BMW tuning to see if they can do anything on site, this one shop did the tune on my jetta and i loved it, it was an APR tune.


I don't have an extra $1k right now to do it the easy way, so i have some time to look around, just want to get it all lined up so when I'm ready to do the downpipe i can get it coded.

Don't know shit about this, but cool, let's go vroom vroom.

I had a 2015 2.sl0w standard jetta

Slow standard Jetta???
That's what i had, 2015, not even the gli, did cold air intake, upgraded turbo inlet and outlet pipes, intercooler pipe, turbo muffler delete, tuned, was really pushing it, got out of three chases from the men in blue in that thing lol

Here's a little video of me smoking a 350z in the Jetta
Stock turbo gets around 12 psi on a good day, i could hit 19psi in the winter that was there at only 3000 rpm in sport mode

Vroom vroom is right lol
she was a true sleeper

PS the torque would eat up some drive axles, they didn't last long, went through 3 in 5 years

Man i miss her...

picture overload!!

could have done better with her, really just let it ride the past 3-4 weeks without a change, nonetheless the buds could stick to a wall they are so crazy sticky














not bad yield for two plant system on a budget (will ride this free light out until she dies, won in a contest from the old site)





indent from return pipe, maybe over-vegged? lol
biggest root ball yet, literally took up all the volume in grow bucket, and then occasionally reaching into the epicenter bucket with danglers, absolutely zero root matter in bucket when this came out, all intact and alive and strong.
that hole was where the pumped return comes in (fallponics) and the roots swallowed the air stone lol
i throw them out after each run anyway so no need to go searching in there


first time i ever hit image max (20) got a warning lol

 

[ninjadip]

a day or 2 cycling some bleach through system, scrub walls with iso, then it's go time!

next ones are ready to go:

Great grow man! Why am I getting a craving for spaghetti?

I see a lot of hash in your near future.

No joke... you can eat those roots.

I had a buddy with me, last harvest, and he said they looked like lo mein so I took a bite out of the whitest roots...

I was pleasantly surprised and will likely take a bite next harvest as well. Throw some in a bowl with a few leaves and some ranch and you got yourself a tasty treat

Thanks brother! Funny how only a 1/4 strength of that rapid root goes a long way, i even stop using it halfway through flower

I'm hoping i get a good yield, seems like good shit for hash, super sticky. Next weekend I'll give the ice hash a go, for the first time

The tap roots broke the other net cup, it made the whole cup bulge out at the bottom like a bell, crazy. That pic of roots was from the smaller plant. I'm pretty sure I have some spare net cups somewhere, so i just tossed it.

Healthy plants, for sure. That trunk damn near swallowed your whole rockwool cube.

The roots never cease to amaze me. By FAR my favorite part of hydro.

Car fun today
Cold air intake, oil catch can, rear speakers, new antenna seal gasket. Speakers are Memphis audio

Up next, huge over sized intercooler, coming tomorrow, but won't have time to do until next weekend. Did a lot of research and learned the difference between fin vs bar and plate design, really happy with my research before the buy, saw logged data from various ones, cheap ones will raise intake temps, good ones will get temps below ambient!!! I got a good one coming

The black thing on the hood is connected to the hood scoop

could never handle that many files or size with most GUI video editing software, at least everyone i tried crashed, too much overhead. I don't need to edit just concat/combine them all while speeding up the frame rate to 8000

final output a little shy of 4 minutes

Very cool man. Enjoyed the music too.

Psst…I swear I saw the gnome move man!

 

[ninjadip]

And so the mini trouble begins,i was warned. Thermostat failed yesterday, got to test if head gasket ok, i think it should be, it didn't get past 250f for more than a minute, i believe the thermostat never opened, took about 10 minutes to overheat...
Of course you can't just change the thermostat, it's built in to the thermostat housing, got a new one coming Saturday for only $50 with lifetime replacement coverage.

Thankfully she's in one of the easier places to get to in the hood.
Hopefully still have time to do ice hash this weekend, wife is pissed i took up the entire freezer with weed

Thanks brother, part is coming today, will put in tomorrow.

Tested last night, thankfully head gasket is good, no damage done. Phew ... That's a big load off.
