doorway to growroom is never closed shut....

:smokeit:just think 90 degree corners. i run a 1K in a small room with jus a box fan close to the door so it can suck out the warm air inside the room. i also wanted to keep the door open when the lite is on or off....it works for me even when its bright outside of the growroom b/c of the sunlite....Hope this helps.:dunno:



left pix is inside growroom ... right pix is outside of growroom...no tarp zipper or velcro..

Ps, gots the idea from when i was in photography class back in high school. :dance013:

Caljim: Nice sea of green.

JK: We're all just a bunch of midwest cats who love our hobby.

Going to be 80 in Chicago today. Always the scary time of the year for me....not hot enough for A/C in my house and just hot enough that if i'm not careful the temps in my grow room can jump too high...

I think I'm going to Home Depot and getting one of those mini A/Cs

It's been a warm spring for us so far, although temps are cooling towards seasonable levels now.

My Honeybee extractor from edit . com
First time using it, actually. My first BHO attempt was with a turkey baster. Worked ok but didnt hold much bud.

Ran the tube about three times, used a couple ounces i guess?

Extracted into the same pan, one after another.

Got an ok amount, i guess, but it doesnt look like much. I saved the extracted bud, maybe ill throw it into my next cannabutter batch? Probably nothing left to extract but i feel like there should still be something left...

I did a hot extraction using the 151. Put the 151 and bud in a mason jar, then into a simmering water bath for about 30 mins, stirring every now and again. Have to make sure you have your oven fan/range hood on plus windows open for fresh air exchange in order to avoid evaporated alcohol building up and catching fire!

Here's a link to a process by some head named Master Wu, who's done a lot of tinkering with green dragon:

h t t p: //boards.cannabis.com/concentrates/58414-definitive-green-dragon-cannabis-tincture.html

He recommends a decarboxylation before extraction, in order to convert more THC-A to THC. I did it for the green dragon but not for my glycerin tincture, which has been 'cooking' on top of my ballast for the last month or so.

Nice setup you have there, PC. Is that silverware/gold flatware? We're going to have to call you the Duke of Murda. That has a nice ring to it...

Do people do a hot extraction when making iso? I guess so, it would make the alcohol evap a lot faster... Of course you wouldn't use 151 to make iso when 70 or 90 percent iso is much cheaper....

Anyone doing anything special for 4/20 tomorrow?
