I like to mix indicas and sativas to get a well rounded stone.

I then do a dry ice hash. But I freeze the pot first. THC is sticky,
and you don't want to gunk up your blender.

After the hash is safely tucked away, I take the leftovers
and make cannabutter. Don't worry, it will be strong enough.

Throw it in a crockpot, add water, and let it simmer for an hour.
Btw, I am not a recipe cook, I'm a dump cook. I take stuff, dump it
in a pot, and when it looks good, it's dinner. So when I say an hour,
just get it good and wet.

Then you add a bunch of coconut oil. I've seen recipes that call for days of
cooking. I let it go all day. No idea if that's better or worse, just what I did.
Someone wrote that you should give it a good thrashing with a hand blender.
I think I might try that this time.

When it looked done, I sieved the liquid off, squishing it a bit to get as much as
I could.

I then did the washing process, where you freeze it, take off the oil, melt it, add
water and stir and then freeze it again...until the water stops turning green.

Melted it one last time, and then poured it into ice cube trays. I wanted smaller
cubes and found a silicon chile pepper ice cube tray at an outlet. I was looking to
make smaller cubes, any shape will do

I take a small dish and put a tbsp of grapeseed oil, and a cannabutter cube in
it, and nuke it for 30 seconds. Let it sit a while and the cannabutter will melt.

I make a choc chip cookie with it. I take a heaping tblsp of Kamut flour, a heaping tblsp of protein powder, stir in a couple eggs, dash of salt, tblsp of sugar, 1/2 tsp of baking powder, a squirt of agave syrup, a handful of walnuts, and a handful of Nestles dark chocolate chips.

I bake it in a 300 F oven until it's done. You hold it up to you ear, and if you
can't hear anything, it's done.
 
Hi Late

How are you ? I am glad I caught your post. Excellent use of the whole plant and to geet every single cbd, thc you can out of them, ncredible. Mother nature shine's on you my freind. Talk about going way back when we used to use the whole part of everything we used, with little waste as possible.

I would love to see pictures. WE (Root66 and I) use the whole plant in different ways as well. We also use the roots for topicals which you can use for rashes, sunburns, rosacea, psoriasis, dry skin, and many othere things including pain. It is high in Alkalii, which is good for the skin, and helps your body deal with pain.View attachment 174909

Thanks, I've been meaning to make some skin cream that
included both root and extract.

Nothing is special. I got a 90 micron bag that is supposed to be for
dry ice hash. Looks the same to me as a mesh water ice bag.
I doubt the 90 micron size is special. I've only used it once so far,
and the size was a guess.

Only thing I'd say is special is the smell of fresh hash from blended pot.
You get that deep hashy smell from the indica, and a bit of a sharper
more aromatic smell from the sativa. It's not the best hash I've ever had,
not even close.. But it is very nice.

I don't press the hash. I have a MFLB and it doesn't like oils
or hashes. So I tried the 90 micron size in the hope that
it would be ok to use with the Flight Box. It is.

Btw, I am retired, and I grew up with my grandparents.
They could do a hundred things with cheesecloth, everyone
from that era could. I try to not let things go to waste, but
I don't hold a candle to them.

I guesstimate that I get 2 to 3 times as much active ingredient out
of a plant than if I'd smoked it.

next thing I want to do is hook my MFLB up to a bong...

was kinda hoping to do it without shelling out $30 for the adapter
MFLB makes.
