Hey Biud-Boy, loving your indoor growroom, nice work with everything. Keep rocking out and no more tree falls, OK?

Too much to comment on, not enough RAM in my brain to catch it all.

In re: the in-shorts-at-38, .. Yeah. Your pals are probably right. :D (Though that reminds me, last night I got home and thought, "Hey, it's kinda niceish out today, I think I'll take the dogs for a run!"

We got back from the run, and I looked at the thermometer on the back of the house - 37 degrees. :tumbleweed:

Nice tube for the gas blowin'. I need me a bigg'n like that. I can cram a little more than an ounce into mine, but the yield hardly seems worth the trouble sometimes..

What about some bare bulbs in the space to heat things up? :D

I find crammin reduces yield
I dont think i put a full oz in my tube
pulse pulse w the food processor
i lightly, very lightly tap pack it

and the bare bulbs
not a bad idea
or the space heater thats in there
but additional lumens are where its at if im gonna pay them a holes to run anything

Interesting, on the non crammin'. So you just sort of tap tap tap the material down in the tube (like tapping the tube itself against the floor/table, to let it settle)?

How fine do you get your material? I'm presuming finer'n frog hair if you're using the processor..?

I see all those cans of gas on the ground - how many cans do you run per oz (or so) in the tube?

And, back to crammin', .. So, do you always have a full tube? (that is, no empty space at the top?) .. Though now that I'm thinkin, maybe extra space on the top really wouldn't make a difference, ..)?

The tube end is a tightly trimmed coffee filter then ss screen held on with a hse clamp
this end opens up
i try to process the same as i use a grinder
lastnight the processor idea came to me
so not pulverized
next time ill weigh out what typically goes in there
yup...tap tap, fill 1/3 tap tap, top off, paper filter screen clamp
blow the whole can through n wait

lastnight I adjusted this from doing the can in portions

I noticed the resistance from the filter so the herb actually gets to soak in the liquid butane as it works its way down
the cans are 10.8--smaller but 7x
then when the dripping is to a trikle, i blow 1/2 another through and wait it out.
I need a plug for the top and a stand
it was a long night...

space anywhere isnt any difference
i think a lil a the topis good
try blowin into a mason jar with a small hole drilled on top and strain that out
thats what gave me the new insight into my tube

I've seen this method - wondered about any pros/cons, .. It'd sure beat buying another frickin' tube, or having to unpack the tube and re-pack in the middle of a blowin' session..

Errrr... :tumbleweed:

That's all the review I needed. Seemed like it gave almost a prolonged exposure to the gas on the material - like, too much almost. Not sure if that's possible with butane, but I'd imagine it's like any solvent, right? I mean, if it's no bueno to let the material sit in the isopropyl for too long, then does the same apply to butane?

Por favor do keep your lids peeled :thank you::thank you:

Yes
It was darker and a little waxier
But if u saw the thread
My process was a childish disaster
I wanted swirl swirl filter
But im stoked w tube setup 4 years now
But
Im thinkin of doin an old scool long soak black tar hash
Had some the other day
BAM
I guess its like DMT
The extras in the elfin spice vs white crystal
Contributes to the journey
