Freeze dried flowers

[Porky]

Pheno variations. Some good ( like yours), some not so good( like mine) . I only pollinated 1 cola, but still have 300 hundred seeds left. Pm me if you want to pheno hunt through some more, as Ive lost interest in that strain.

The Gelato x Runts I grew from ya was hermie free. Was a good smoke but the plants were very short and compact. Think each one was just over 2oz so low yield.

 

[Love to grow]

Your the foot king! Every 2nd pic from you got ya toes or ya shoes in em!

I never even noticed not trying to step on bobs toes

 

[Dotts]

all my grows now are going straight to freezer.

trim fan leaves only so not to release any chlorophyll , straight to freezer,

washed for hash, dried in fridge, sieved a couple times to break down clumps.

then pressed, and room temp cured rosin...

Yes I’ll give it a crack too.
The science behind it (as I see it) being that the frost free freezer is frost free as it removes moisture so no ice
Same principle on ya bud, removes the moisture.

Simple really, but whoever thought of it go immediately to top of the class

For the first time, don't put ALL your colas into freeze, just a few colas to test. If your freezer works Ok, you can then freeze more of your future crops.

For sure
Sound advice Old Fox

Oh I would love a freeze dryer . just imagine drying a whole plant in 24/36 hours .
Being doing some research cheapest is from China 3-4k Not sure how reliable even feed back on American ones not good.
Have been thinking locals should get together and do a shared one.

I'm definitely gonna have a go at freeze drying at harvest time , because of the very dry climate here I find it hard to keep the buds from drying too quickly

I am testing a large cola currently. Though I have the opposite problem!

It doesn't cure your bud's though it only dries them. Keep that in mind .

Yeah I was wondering about that. What if they been in the freezer 6 months or more? Do they come out just like they went in?

 

[Pixie]

I'm not sure about that Porky. I know that a lot of the canna medical suppliers freeze dry there bud's but you wouldn't think it cure's them. I think it's just a quick and easy way to turn their products over.

 

[Pixie]

I know that oil will cure in the freezer but not sure if bud's do mate

They retain their shape and colour, so high bag appeal. Maybe smokes a little bit harsher than long term cured flowers. But if left frozen for longer, maybe 6 months+, may smooth out bit more.

Leave some in for 6 months plus and let everyone know!
I still blow out it can actually be done in a freezer and keep forgetting to try it everytime I chop.

 

[afghan bob]

Been slurping on oil that's been frozen 4 three yrs
Tastes just same

 

[Sedge]

Maybe best to jar it for cure after it has dried ,,probably need the jar in a cool spot to keep the terps..
It’s something I keep forgetting to do too.

We got a new fridge.

Guess what? Means I have a whole fridge and full length ( floor to top) frost free freezer.

Got to move it to the basement and then I’ll dry incredible bulk inside. woohoo.

Test bud. Been in a few days or maybe a week. I don’t know.

So. Leave for a month ? I’m excited.

I did an experiment recently and after 30 days or so pulled it out and hung it up and it was good to smoke the next morning.

Great. Can’t wait.
Thanks.
