Title is pretty much my question. I made some iso hash from harvest trim and it just looks so black. it looks like opium or heroin or something just this black goo ball. I usually see it being brown or light brown, any reason mine is so dark?
You might have let it sit in the iso a bit too long, this causes plant matter to be dissolved and end up in the finished product. You don't want your stuff in the iso for more than 30-40 seconds total.
Sure, it's just plant matter, no different from smoking it. Just not going to be a real high quality hash. Check out the stickies from hashmouf (sp?) and augustwest at the top of the forum, real informative. I hope it turns out better for you next time.
Hey thanks, Im going to take some of my crop and make more hash but higher quality. I just did this to dick around with trim. I smoked some like 10 mins ago and hot damn im stoned.
ok i just did the same exact thing but my check this out... i ran about 17 grams with one can of butane and it yielded like nothing, .5.... so i ran that through iso where i let it sit too long cause i was still tying to figure out what happened, but then the iso got like 2.5 grams??? why didn't it yield through the BHO??
I think it's black because you haven't sifted the chlorophyll out of it yet, like with a coffee strainer.
This is some hash that I made through iso and i'm wondering if it's dry enough to consume. It's soft and dry but malleable. Maybe a tiny bit of honey consistency that can be seen scraped on the glasws. It's been 24 hr. since made. What do you guys think? Safe to consume? http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n281/metalxmindfreak/iso3.jpg
u cant sift chlorophyll out of ur iso try freezing ur bud and iso for 24hrs before hand only wash for 15-30 sec and strain threw 2 filters
isisongrnch take a bit on a razor n put a lighter to it if it sparkles like a sparkler then let it sit out or put a lil heat under it for a bit i think after 24hrs it should b ok..but do the lighter test just incase
i put about a matchhead on my grinder and lit it. It went up in 2 seconds, but no crackling. It went out and burned evenly like incense and the smoke was white and thick but didn't smell like iso. The ash was black left over though but this could be just because it's reclaim. Thanks TakeAwhiff, I know you've answered me on multiple threads.
Sounds like you used beyond shitty trim if you yielded .5 out of 17 grams, it almost sounds like you tried to do a bho run with hemp... I would imagine that the reason you yielded so much from iso extraction is because you picked up only waxes, chlorophyll, fats, and other shit that gets picked up when you leave trim in alcohol, next time use better weed, and don soak as long.
