Foxtailing? Pretty sure, but what should I do?

Yes, Once through cheesecloth, then one or two more times through a coffee filter. BTW I joined Growersonclave and have started a thread over there on making concentrates. It looks just like ILGM but it’s more like the Bergmans Lab private side so your posts aren’t searchable through the internet. If you choose to join along a lot of us are moving over there) use your same screen name as here so the moderator can easily recognize that it’s you.

Next time I’m using this mix I found. I did a double batch today and didn’t have enough. Next time I’ll do a smaller batch so I can use this. :point_down:

Lol. My daughter loves that stupid commercial. Where all the adults are talking like kids. She laughs every time it comes on and quotes the whole damn thing. Kinda cute…but quite annoying. Lol
I’ll have to try it out tho. I used all my concentrate today so I’ll need to make another batch of qwet soon. I want to try the starburst and another chocolate recipe…if I have enough I’ll try the one you suggested. I’m more a chocolate person, so may not make a lot of gummies. But I got a lot of friends that are big fans of the gummies. So I’m sure they won’t be sitting around too long. :partying_face:

Yes, you need a new account… it’s totally separate from ILGM. Those of us on “Bergmans :ab” aka the Forum side (which btw we all paid to be members) closed down the private side and told us we had to move to the public side which none of us wanted.

I’ve tried the Starburst jello and wasn’t super impressed, hubby said the flavor was much lighter than the regular jellos.

Hmmm. Good to know. :+1:. Well I already bought it, so might as well give it try. Wonder if there’s a way to increase the taste.

I added some strawberry extract once and it was just ok then I tried strawberry kool-aid mix and that worked pretty good… only used like 1/4 t.

@NugFlush @Nothingshocking @emgoldslo here are pics from my tutorial. This is what your dab/wax should look like.

With one oz from my Nepali Pink, I yielded 4.04 grams of wax:

@caligurl Thanks, it helps to see what I should be trying for. I will make another batch this week most likely with a few improvements.

I think I’ll decarb for a shorter time, mine has a burnt taste.

I’ll filter through cheese cloth first to remove most of the plant material, then run through a coffee filter - I think I struggled because I had an ounce of weed clogging the coffee filter - if I remove 90-95% of the weed with the cheese cloth I think the coffee filter will work better.

I’m thinking of picking up the potato ricer @emgoldslo recommended, or a french press coffee maker.

In other news, the gorilla glue auto is still alive and kicking. It’s now about as far along with flowering as the Zkittlez was when it died. So thanks to everyone who made suggestions from decreasing the watering to adding the mykos to changing my nutrients. Most of the fan leaves in the big buds have died off, but as you can see the buds are still alive and well.

I was thinking it would be time to start the 2 week flush this week or next, but I don’t have many red hairs yet.

Here’s the plant today:

here’s a close up from a couple days ago - I’ll take more pics this week when I have a chance without the lights on - confusing because they look cloudy, but so many white hairs still, I’m pretty sure it’s still making more white hairs even now

1216 bud

Holy crap batman! Those colas are fat! I can’t believe you still have so many white pistils! Can you post a clearer pic of one or two of the main colas? The trichomes look about half clear and half cloudy. And with the past overwatering, I honestly don’t think I’d do a flush at all… maybe just slowly stop nutrients (except the Mykos and Cal/Mag if you are using them). Flushing is stressful on the plants and a lot of people think flushing does the same thing as just holding off nutrients. It’s all about letting the plant rid itself of any nutrient buildup.

I can’t wait to see the harvest on this one!

Before and after decarboxylation Oven at 240 for 1 hour - gently shaking it every 15 minutes or so:

Though the cheesecloth first, then through the coffee filter:

Still takes a while through the coffee filter so I set up a little rig to hold it over the dish:

this is what remained from the coffee filter (I really should have done it twice)

and the liquid that will be evaporated:

And when it’s done:

I considered that too. Just make it the first strain and then through a coffee filter.

And one more hint. Once evaporated if you get some of the wax on your finger don’t lick it all off :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

That was a trip to the moon for several hours!
