How can chemical solvents b good for you.... Or at least some what safe....I don't think you can have pure clean hash- oil.. From chemically separation.. Correct me if im wrong:wave: I purchased some from the Greenhouse that was pressed in between two sheets of plastic and when I tried to pull it apart the hash/ jelly had melted the plastic it desolved into it.... I put it in my RooR w a bubble hash stem w stainless screens tried to smoke it and it exploded in to blue green flames it pulled off the bong an set it down It would not go out spewing flames an molten hash all over the table flaming ble and green w nasty black soot... Please tell me how this type of hash jelly oil is non toxic.... :dance013:

Please stand corrected bro and you are most welcome for the correction service.

How is the hash compromised once the solvent is removed and have you looked at the MSDS to note the levels at which the solvents used are of actual concern? Detractors often fail to notice the ppm of health concern, vis a vis the several thousand to million times lower solvent residual present.

Statements from me that may or may not be true. "Do not breath oxygen under any circumstances, because at 75% atmosphere, it will kill you dead. Masturbation will make you blind and crazy."

How about if we only breath oxygen and play with ourselves, until we need glasses, or start acting stupid?

Cannabis oil very definitely will dissolve some plastics, without any other help. If you look at its molecular structure, you will see that it is a hydrocarbon and a solvent all by itself.

I can relate to the nasty black soot and there is the indisputable answer to your quandary. No other data is needed!

It clearly without question demonstrates that you are seriously overheating the oil, because that is the only circumstances that it does what you describe.

Try only heating to the vaporization point, instead of burning it.
 
an added comparison for easy deduction:

if i add flame to alcohol it will burn as well. but if i gently warm it, vapors will be readily visible to the eye. make sense? you want to do the same with hash, hash oil and keif. never put it to flame.

yes, make sure you remove the moisture befor extracting. graywolf went through three tubes in a day extracting in cold temps.


Actually more of a statement about our initial boro silicate tube design. I wiped out several tubes at cold temperatures, because we didn't use a full hemisphere and uniform wall thickness for the injection end. They all spalled off conchoidal divots from the edge of the injection port.

After changing our design, we had no further failures, but ES's point is well taken, in that the glass systems are less forgiving at low temperatures.

I think im gonna be alright, but thought I would make sure. Extracting outside in negative temps have any downsides and/or dangers?



I prefer to do QWISO in winter months myself..... but have done BHO outdoors as well.

Just watch you're RL to avoid a static spark in extreme dryness. I tend to stand on a grounding plate tethered to inexpensive wrist ground straps and will only do so during a day that has a slight breeze going on. Also avoid wearing bulky winter sweaters, pajama bottoms, or slippers, etc.... anything that may lead to a static spark.

Think it out, play safe..... sure beats the alternative ICU visit.

Check out my, "Please do not immolate or blow yourselves up thread", for key safety points.

Especially those about static sparks, which as S420 notes, becomes more of an issue as the temperature and humidity fall. I've used a grounding strap clipped to the can in frigid dry conditions, that grounds it to the column I am injecting into.

Does any one get less yields in the cold from tube extraction? Seems like my yields aren't what they were a couple months ago. Maybe I'm just drying a lot better know.

Outdoor Green Ice.....Straight nuggets, vector butane, and a glass tube. Bout 30 G's turned into bout 3 G's, it's usually hard on me using so much herb to make so lil tane, but these buds were caterpillar ravaged and moldy...Gotta love that you can still use material like that and get such dank tho eh ;) Also got GoPro footage of this oil in a Vacuum food saver and it pumps up nice! I'll try to get up the footy in a little.

I've been yielding about 15% from 60/40 sugar trim trim popcorn bud LSD trim. I find the sativia's produce higher numbers as well.

Wow 21 cans of butane.. I went to the club the other day and this one mentioned that they don't buy anything that's not vacuum purged. When you think about it that is a shit load of butane just going straight in the air..
