Hi DGC! This time I thought I’d show the end product of my newest harvest. Medicine wise, I dab on flower rosin. I love flower but it just doesn’t help with my health issues like concentrates do. So in the lineup, is Melonsicle with a 22% rosin return. Then Sage ‘n Sour with a 17% return. Last but not least is French Macaron with an 18% return. I pressed these at 190°F for 4 mins total but only at full pressure for 2-2.5 minutes. My press is a CRD 20 ton hydraulic press (no bottle jack on this beauty) with 4”x9” plates. A lot more people are pressing rosin and I’m hearing stories of their rosin tasting bad after the terpenes are gone. This comes from pressing to long and too hot in my opinion. If your looking for the most return you can get by pressing hotter and longer, you will inherently get weird tasting rosin. T.H.Seeds has great genetics. I definitely recommend them and they are available at seedsherenow.com
I had the same three strains for my last grow. Unfortunately the French Macron didn’t sprout. But the SnS and Melonsicle did great. Looks like you had a good run!
Thanks, yes I’m very happy with the turnout of this harvest. I had 2 Shiloh Z’s not germinate back to back and I ended up germinating a French Macaron instead. I hope the whole pack isn’t bad. I’ll try again in the future and hopefully it was a fluke.
In case anybody is wondering, I took these pics with my IPhone 12 Pro Max and I used the auto fix feature to lighten up the photos.
I want to get one of those lighted picture boxes.
