#5 Then I take as much of the trim as I can out of the bucket giving it a squeeze before I put it back in a bag ready to be re frozen 🥶
#6 Then I carefully pour the remaining water through my screen and into the glass bowl….

As you can see your left with a cloudy/muddy looking water ⬆️
#6 Leave the water to settle for an hour or so ⏱️
You can see the Trichomes settle on the bottom of the dish if you shine a light through 💡

#7 After it has settled I use a small length of Aquarium hose to carefully siphon the water out from the surface.

I work my way from the surface to the bottom carefully trying not to disturb it.
The aim is to remove as much water as I can without removing any Triches! View attachment 19090520

#8 Once I’ve removed as much water as I can I then leave the bowl in a well ventilated warm area over night 🌙 View attachment 19090522
#9 Next day I’m left with a dry toffee consistency hash covering the bottom of the bowl 🥣 View attachment 19090523
#10 Using a palette knife I scrape the hash into clumps and form into a block using my fingers 👌

The final result is a couple of grams of my Home Made Bubble hash 😋 View attachment 19090525
It’s not the purest hash in the world and I can only process small amounts at a time but that suits me just fine 👍
I get multiple runs out of each seasons trim ✂️
All from something that some people would consider “Trash”

Nice. I just threw out 10 plants with heaps of little buds on em because I've been to lazy to do anything with them lately. I used to do dry ice hash a with mine. Was nice and ghetto like yours. 🤣

It’s been a long winter here in the UK 🇬🇧 🥶
Things are starting to warm up now though thank goodness! ⛅
Last years harvest is still serving me well 👍
The Lockdown Loco is a superb daytime smoke 💨
The Pineapple/Grapefruit is a nice evening smoke 💨
And the hash I make with the popcorn trim is perfect for knocking me out before bed 👊

Anyway I thought I’d carry on this Diary into 2025 🗓️
This is the same plot as last year which always produces some good plants 🌱
It’s close to a river and floods every winter which means the soil is very fertile and relatively easy to dig
As you can see I’ve dug a few large holes already.
Also clipped around the bramble to try keep it in check ✂️
I’ll probably plant fewer plants this year because last year I was a bit over run with females and some did suffer from being too close together.

The soil in this plot is always full of these tiny white “Mud Snails” which I’m sure helps keep the soil free draining and probably add nutrients 🐚

Being close to a river the water table is high so watering has never been an issue.
One concern is that some years we can get a lot of rain at the end of summer and it is prone to flooding☔
I remember one season in particular when I had to harvest my crop while knee high in water! 🌊
Didn’t do the plants any harm but was quite challenging having to wade to the plot 🤣

Looking good man. Starting early feels so good, doesn't it? Trying to prep in the heat of May is much less fun. Carefree growing for your own supply, there's nothing better. Cheers to a good growing season~
