So i bought a bag of this hash of this guy i know, usually has good stuff but sometimes its not cured perfect. Anyway it smelled like good hash, but it had the texture of sand almost. It was golden/brown/green and clump, but the clumps could be broken apart into a powder with the texture of sand. I smoked it and it tasted like good hash and it got me high like good hash. I was wondering if any body else has come across anything like this before?
 
sounds like kief that might have clumped together into a ball or what not

if it smokes good it is prob some decent kief although if it is really green then maybe it is just ok. either way enjoy

EDIT: damn, someone beat me to the punch
 
thats what i thought that it might be keif.....i think the improper keif-hash conversion theory seems to explain it pretty well. thanks
 
I've had great hash that had a gold color and a sandy texture. Just like this:

^ this one looks more like bubble hash filtered through a very fine mesh than simple kief
 
i have seen bubble hash that can def convert to crumbly sandy lookin stuff after rubbing it with ones fingers?


do you have a camera? maybe if you post a pic like Zyyxx did we can help you better

either way you said it smoked good amiright? did it have any bubble qualities while smoked?
 
Treat it with heat and pressure and it will resemble more familiar forms of hash.

(he does it at like 2:38)
^ u can do that

or

1. put it in a plastic bag. fold it up into a lil square
2. get a sheet of news paper or paper bag or whatever
3. fold it up around the plastic wrapped hash
4. get the paper wet till its soaked through
5. Put it in a frying pan an push on it flipping it over and over until you see some steam come off the paper and its very hot to the touch
6. then take it out and stand on it for a minute
7. unwrap and be amazed how your has has transformed.

That's a gorgeous piece Zzyzx, you've got me drooling.
I've seen ice hash that was broken back down into a sandy powder, really good stuff. If it's green though, there might just be too much plant matter for the piece to bind together properly.
If you want to press up a little piece try wrapping it in the cellophane from a fag packet, then sticking it in your shoe and going abbout your day. By the evening you should have a nice chunk. This is also a good test for quality, good resin should press easily.
 
So that golden ball of dreams I see up there, what you gotta smoke like 0.01 to get wasted or something?

Hopefully yerg answers this, he seems to know his shit.
 
I don't know if you get wasted as such, I find that a lot of high grade ice hash is actually quite subtle. A lot of people who are used to smoking heavy green with a strong body high are a bit disappointed by how "weak" hash is, but I find it to be a much clearer, cleaner high. In in terms of weight though, that stuff looks very good, you'd probably need more like a tenth of a gram than a hundredth though.
if it gets you high who cares what kind it is.

People who don't want to smoke mould, or henna, or mud, or oil, or any of the other shit that makes it into hash. This is just what the producers put in, by the time it gets to Western Europe it's often been broken up, adulterated and repressed. You can catch a high off really bad, impure hash, but it's just a bit desperate IMO.
 
If you're getting Afghani import with no adulterants whatsoever you're in a small and lucky minority.
I wouldn't call shit with additives hash. nor would i smoke it.

Good to hear, much better than "if it gets you high who cares".

this method worked really well for me yesterday. i was confused about the kief though. basically, the sifty stuff left over on the metal part of the grinder is more plant matter. the trichomes stick to the plastic top more than anywhere else in the grinder.

so i had too much plant matter in my hash and it didn't get as sticky or cured as i would have hoped. but basically, i ended up with about a gram of green, non sticky hash from roughly 3grams of bud. it was still very very strong. i used the last of my hydro/indoor sugary-weed to make it.

i slept very well last night.

Plastic top on your grinder?

I would reccomend using an all metal grinder. Kief tends to stick to plastic (that's also why i store weed in glass jars and metal tins). Grinders with plastic parts are in general usually pretty shoddy. I was able to get a decent* grinder at a shady convenience store for $12 iirc, all metal, and kief doesnt get stuck where it shouldnt, nor does plant matter get into the kief.

You want one of the ones that has 4 pieces - top that you take off to put weed in, then one under that which you unscrew to get at the ground weed, the third piece has screen on the bottom, so you can unscrew the bottom (where the kief collects) from it. All pieces should be metal.

*decent being typical chinese workmanship. Not something i'd show off like the beautiful $40+ made-in-USA ones, but entirely sufficient for the task.

You brits should take the example from us here in Finland. Some guys tried to bring soapbars to finland a few years ago but as soon as people got their first tastes of that shit nobody wanted it and it ended up being sold at 1/10th the price of usual street hash.

Then they even tried to mask it by mixing it with some maroccan hash and re-pressing it to look like regular hash but the taste was too telling. Nobody wanted it and again it ended up being sold at low price...

Since then I haven't seen soapbar in finland, and no wonder since nobody likes it.
