So I harvested my plant and put it in a tote, from there I removed the fan leaves and nothing else, from what I was seeing cutting the sugar leaves will release chlorophyll which can make your hash green. So fan leaves, and if you need to cut something to get a fan leave off, just leave it unless it’s dead.
From there I also destemmed it as much as I could following the same principle trying to wind up with 25mm (inch) sized buds.
From there it immediately went into bags and I sucked the air out and tossed in the freezer. From harvest to freezer was less than an hour per plant to try and minimize degradation.
I’m currently cleaning and sanitizing my gear and stuff for hopefully making a wash or three tonight with some of the bags! Wish me luck growmies!
I plan on making posts as I fumble my way through bubble hash and hopefully into some homemade carts with the pressed rosin from it. Read some pretty cool guides on it, and it’s been something I’ve been thinking of for a while, and these Ugly Autos may just make me take the plunge.
Don’t need much gear surprisingly, after the bubble hash, you just need to heat press it, cure the resulting rosin and after you decarb it, it’s ready to place straight in carts, no Gylcerin or anything needed, but may get some flavored terps to be more discreet.
