Yeah its just like the trees turning colors here in New England in the fall. The purple is there all the time, but the chlorophyll is present in such amounts to overwhelm it. When the plant gets the message that it's time to stop expressing the chlorophyll, the purple shows through. This definitely happens indoors with some strains, but is a little harder to do indoors since the grower is controlling all the environmental controls to maximize production instead of providing the exact natural conditions the plants would get outside. Many strains will turn purple near harvest if grown outdoors though.
lightcycle, temps day and night and nutrient avaliblity due to quantity and/or ph of media play the parts in it. outdoors varibles are less in your control. indoor all of these can be adjusted to caused desired effects. increasing thc production, decreasing chlorophyll production through decreased night and increased day temps along with ph and nutient changes. but just like human babies... they have a due date but dont always develop on the dr. schedule. some go long and some go short. allowing it to sit longer will actually cause the thc to begin oxidizing on the vine and create a higher cbd cbn ratio. some desire this some dont.... all of it is subjective to the user.

Ok, I just learned something new. I know the only way to kill off the chlorophyll is with an ISO wash. Personally, I'm not a big fan of ISO but I'm going to do a run now with ISO. My green co2 run tasye fab!

I myself am learning, personally I'm friends with Knotty and he's been the one teaching me. I'm also about to try a natural solvent by KleenExtract as the recently asked me to rep for them.

I have no issue with being wrong, it's just when being like I don't know what I'm doing gets my panties in a ruffle. I have ZERO residue on nails, and the flavor (too me) is good.

If anyone else who has a closed loop system that runs co2 I'd love to hear you chime in.

personally I wish people were more open with all not just some information... its what keeps our community down.

I cant study under natty... whoever that is... all I know is art and science... and when we talk in riddles and clues it conflates the whole idea into just another capitalist piece of shit idea that makes me mad.

im not in it for money... or you... im in it for me and the knowledge!

I started a thread to discuss extracrion as this seems more a hey look what I got thread. and I don't want to mess it any more than I already have.

peace brothers and sisters. I love you all... but I hate secrets more!
 
@mvapes where are you purging your shit for that long? Can I honestly run my little pump for 100 hours? Also how are keeping exact constant temps? I just have a little hot plate lol.

@VapeNStone @mvapes @farscaper and anyone else I might have missed, lol...

Since this is a picture thread and not a "how to" thread, this convo would be better as a separate thread in the Concentrates section? :)
I have started the thread for: extraction artists
http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/for-extraction-artists.14554/

if that seems suitable it can go there it would fit perfectly as i wished we had been discussing it there...
or another thread if you prefer.
eithr way, didnt mean to clutter this one mom. thanks! :tup::nod:

Just took some 3rd run BHO from a couple batches that was full of chlorophyll and other crap and used this guide to get rid of it all. http://skunkpharmresearch.com/getting-the-green-and-waxes-out-afterwards/

Came out as some dark colored shatter. WAY tastier than it was to begin with. If I spread it out it would probably look pretty nice.

Also bought some CO2 wax for the first time today...not quite sure what to think. The color is weird (probably normal for CO2 but I don't know) and it kind of sizzles when it hits the nail. The label says www.goldenbarn.com I visited the site and it looks pretty legit but I'm still not sure. Definitely gets me high and tastes decent but it's definitely not the 95% THC wax the dispensary claimed it was.

In the process of removing the chlorophyll from a different batch right now:

So as not to leave big holes in this thread, I've left the original post by mvape regarding his Kong extraction and the 35 responses that it triggered about "how to" and copied them to the Extraction Artist thread. Please keep further discussion of technique to that thread and leave this one to the glorious pics you've had me drooling over.

Bought a full ounce of Kong from a place in CO Springs called Kind Theraputics. The gave me 30 grams and I yielded only ~3.3 grams. Total. I definitely recommend never setting foot inside that dispensary ever.

Final product tastes great and has a great effect...there was just about 3 or 4 grams less than there should have been.

Great Scott!
@Jared is 10% yield really bad? The best I can do with my starting material is about 8%. Mind you I am not in the USA


Most people shoot for 20-25% with EXCELLENT buds.

I myself get about 1g give or take a little bit per quarter that I wash with ethanol. I get about the same with BHO that I make, so it really has a lot to do with starting material assuming your technique is solid.

When you're paying for an ounce of full nugs from a dispensary it is.
In my opinion 10% return on anything but trim is pretty bad. Unless the starting material isn't very good at all, which this was supposed to be at least decent. I paid less for the ounce that blew that a train a page or two back and I got well over 5 grams from that.

agreed. 10% is sift numbers, not solvent. 2 runs ago the same thing happened to me. Chocolate mango, looked and smelled good. I vaped a bowl, almost no vapor... bad sign. 55 gram run = 5.5 g of damn good oil.... fuck. A typical run for me from the same source (different strains) is in the 13 - 16 gram range

Damn. I am actually starting to think I get exceptional buds for where I am! I am getting 5-10g yields with QWISO on my THC bomb who buds (including trim, you don't need to remove trim/stems if you freeze your material adequately before each wash!) from each oz!

Gimme a few hours and I'll have some pics of the delicious THC Bomb x Mango Dream shatter I am evaporating right now. The mango dream was grown outdoors, and still covered in trichs almost to the degree that the THC Bomb is!!! :D

THC Bomb is exceptionally resinating strain. very tasty. very nice to smell... if your using that then yes you are using high quality material... if properly raised.

kudos to you. that strain is very consistent. if you like that try Cherry Bomb same breeder but OMG it smells like cherry mash (if you know what candy bar that is)

totally boutique!

man, here is the final product, a dab of my Mango Bomb shatter :D qwiso of course, first run ;)

EDIT: Damn this stuff is sticky! 4.6g yield from 2oz first run, slightly lower than my usual 5.1g or so first run if it were all THC bomb. Still, the guy who grew these outdoor mango dream buds was a fucking artist.
