These days I cannot blaze nuggets like when I was a newb because of irrational thoughts and paranoia that snowball into a really bad buzz. Although it doesn’t stop me getting high I just have to turn my Weed into Hash.

I use the Isopropyl alcohol method on all my dank 1/8th’s and get a decent wad of dope as fuck Hash. Now this Hash I can smoke hit after hit of the potent extraction and not get any passing thoughts about what people may be thinking about me or getting lost for words in a group situation. I can’t go back to regular nugget the side affects were so strong.

The paranoia/anxiety free high from Hash for me was a massive breakthrough, now it’s like the good ol days when I first started smoking grass.

Hash feels like cannabis but with less mental fog but at the same time much more powerful . I can still get tasks done on it unlike buds.

So, anyone else noticed the paranoia/anxiety properties of hash/extracts?
 
i've noticed this as well. any theories on why this happens?

I think the cbd in bud acts as a mental "fog" and gets you stuck in your head
 
MAN YOU DISCRIBED MY LIFE IN A NUTSHELL!!!!!!! my gf smokes weed around me everyday and cant belive that i dont smoke green stuff,it has to be black,brown,yellow just for me to be able to smoke it,i find that even if i make hash out of like 10 strains,it dosent fuck with my head as much as 1 strain of weed with or without the crystal,weed makes me turn into like tweek off southpark lookin around for underpants gnomes lmfao,i can sit there and smoke hash,oil,hash oil,honey oil,whatever the fuck i want as long as its a goup or a solid i dont really care,the only time i smoke weed (promised this to myself) is if im smokin a blunt (and thats to myself i dont smoke other peoples lips ahha)
 
^^Good to see i'm not alone on this brother!

I will smoke tree's but it has to be a special occasion (like a blunt) otherwise I just can't because it royaly fucks with my self esteem and paranoia.

It's cool I can smoke again with Hash but it makes it double the price as I have to turn all my dank into Hash and there's always going to be wasted THC when doping extractions.

Can't fucking wait until i'm back in India where all I got is amazing hash for rock bottom prices.

It does kinda hurt me turmning all my dank as fuck nuggets into Hash as the nuggets themselves are a beautiful thing someone has put allot of hard work into :(
 
how does one make hash from nuggets?

I too get severe anxiety from weed now.

I noticed it happens even more so with lower quality herb, the better the herb/the less i have to smoke to get high then less anxiety i get.

I really wanna smoke to relax and miss being able to smoke it the way i did back in the day.

If you do this please report back. I pretty much guarantee you will once again be able to get a smooth high and relax like the old days with no shitty anxiety edge

Always do a second wash on your buds and chop them up as fine as possible to extract everything.

If you need help smoking the end product use hot knifes or smear the hash on a pipe cone and toke away.
 
would it work better/require less washes if i leave it int eh iso for longer than 30 seconds? will the water in the ISO mess this up? Like i would think i would get impurities from teh water soluble stuff in the herb, knowing THC is alcohol soluble and not water soluble. Also seems like this would leave a lot of goodies in the herb, can the herb still be used/smoked afterward or is it ruined from having been soaked in ISO?
 
I do two soaks on my dank each soak is about 6 hours long. Most faq's tell you 30 seconds and while this will get you a more pure Hash it leaves allot of THC behind. A long 6 hour soak will get you more impurities BUT you hash will be more solid and easier to handle along with getting out more THC.

After I have completed both soaks on my dank I have smoked the wastage to check how much THC was left behind and it's very fuck'n minimal. I mean you get a little high off the leftovers but only 1/20th as high as when it was dank.

To answer that question, iso is easy to get plus that 1% water is nothing to worry about.

In the states ISO is only 70%. can i purify it by freezing i wonder?

You can purify it by having the iso and bud in the freezer before use this stops allot of the plant waxes going into the alcohol. 70% will still work but it will just take longer to dry :|

Although trying to get a more cleaner/potent hash is a bit pointless because even iso Hash that I have soaked for 2 days with no freezer is still 10X more potent than dank.
 
I'm going to have to try this, I react to edibles and hash much better then the nuggets. I can puff away on hash, but with the headies its only one or two hits then I have to quit.
 
here where im from (dk) the most common is hash and i still get paranoid/anxious maybe i should try some iso on it one day

but some strains dont do it and some more then others

should test some differents strains and find out what was the best regarding this :)
 
interesting you posted this thread

i have been starting to get these feeling after smoking buds (for the last 3-5months), basically everytime

this weekend i was out of weed so i cleaned my whole grinder, kief catcher n all, and i got a small-decent amount of ISO hash

i smoked it off coals cuz i didnt have a bowl of nugs to put it on (like i usually do) and i too noticed the negative aspects that have recently come to annoy me about pot were absolutely not present

i had enough hash for 4 sessions(couple oil hoots a session), and i did not notice these anxious feelings i have been getting.

today im back to smoking buds

and im back to gettin wigged out abit

i used to turn all the 1/8ths i bought into BHO a year or two ago but then i stopped cuz it was hard to smoke with others/share, without bringing a frickin BHO tool box everywhere. other then that im not sure why i stopped.
 
There are some strains that just turn my brain sideways, like being decribed.. I guess it happens to alot of people..!
 
you can get 91% isopropyl alcohol at wal mart and other places....I'd think that might work better..
 
hey sativa, you explain my highs. Although they use to snowball into panick/anxiety attacks ( happened after I rolled ) I have control over it now. Even though i get paranoid and stuff it doesn't get severe. I did notice though when i smoked hash at my friends house I did get more stoned and didn't get the negative aspects of it! So yea i would agree with you on the has highs being better and more controlled, must be the CBD of the buds.

what is BHO?
 
Butane Honey Oil

its a form of hash that uses a solvent (butane)

IMO BHO is better then ISO hash and better then bubble bag hash but thats just MO

some people prefer bubble bag hash cuz you arent using solvents your just using water

but i purge my final product well and am confident the majority of the Butane is evaporated

if one were to use the same strain of buds from the same harvest, BHO would undoubtedly be more potent then even the 73mcn or 90mcn bag bubble hash.

BHO has the potential to be the most potent form of hash around. as i stated some people dont care about the potency and shun BHO cuz of the butane

but the way i look at; if u smoke weed with a lighter, your inhaling more combusted butane then i am when i smoke my BHO of coals

if you google BHO you will find some info

wal-mart sells 91%

some CVS's and Wal-greens sell 91%

if u want 99% it can be purchased offline

but even with 70% it really doesnt matter it just means 30% is water. water wont hurt your product it will just take longer to evaporate
