Cheap and fast is lemon juice but it not long lasting. Oddly enough a drop of Miracle-grow will do the same also. @ReLaX will have the definitive answer though, he a lot more up on ph's than me.

Ok...walk me through this, what is pressed kief? And be gentle with me...

irish4:20 is right but we use dry ice with popcorn buds and micron bowl filters to make a lot of high end kief. if comes out like a powder but it is really trichomes which makes it very potent. If you don't press it it doesn't store well, it is twice as potent as hash. Presses are cheap and you can buy the little emblems so your pressed kief looks a little exotic. So save your shake and popcorn buds buy a bowl kit and some dry ice aka DIH and make you some high grade kief! Oh by the way I liked the 1 eyed jamaican so much I got an OZ of it. It is a great wake and bake and is very potent but like I said it doesn't have good bag appeal so when I first saw it I was like um I'll pass but the dude insisted so I bought a gram and was very surprised. I don't know if its clone only there is not much info on it on the web.

A little tip if your kief is greenish that means it is more plant matter than trichomes, thus the blond color is the highest grade and if you use popcorn buds you will get even better quality but good sugar leaves work great as well.

I prefer the bowls to the bags for dry ice extraction.

Here are a variety of presses. I will give a good tip, get some wax paper and cut it into a circle that is the same at each end of your press or the threads will gum up and it will take the incredible hulk to unscrew the press.

Yeah temps are still warm my way as well , going to do a check on the ladies in about half an hour see if my Jack Herrer has come up yet , I'm going to pull the struggling AK if I haven't seen an improvement in size and re-plant another Jack , at this rate it won't produce any decent yield it's too small might as well just re-plant it and have the two Jacks within a week of each other , i'd imagine the other two will finish a month or so earlier.

Might make drying tricky though as I have to use my tent for both. Cardboard box maybe on one side.

I love some good AK-47, there are very few strains that have made me white out meaning getting clammy hands, turning white and about to pass out. It only means that your blood sugar is low and you need something sweet like candy, cookies, or a coke. Thats why in Amsterdam the coffee shops have lots of sweet pastries.

Cheers for the heads up and links. Sounds pretty cool but I am a long way out from having that much spare bud at the mo....lol. Would the high depend very much on the strain used or is it usually a mix of weed? I mean, would the nature of the weed used carry across, or at that concentration would it just blow your head anyway?

Long time since I pulled a whitey. Think its more to do with the grade of dube I normally get rather than my blood sugars though. I didnt realise it was related to sugars though. Missus is type 2, so always plenty of sugar in the house and if all else fails I guess I could raid her gluco-stop though....but thats a pricey way to end a whitey..lol.

Strain doesn't matter. Its a concentrate so even mediocre bud would make great kief!

I'm not diabetic but if you haven't ate anything in a while and smoke some really good bud you can get the whitey's and like I said anything sweet will reverse the affects like a coke or a cookie anything like that.

Hi folks,

Any of the vetrenans still on this thread will know the shite im in...

Went to court in early July and is now set for trial in November... I got the book of evidence and the lying feckers said the had survellance on my house for 2 days where "they noticed people coming and going from my house" which is absoulte bull, I was working nights those days so would of been in bed, which i was when i got the knock..

Reason im going mad is that they are trying to make out i was dealer, which in actual fact I could hardly keep myself in weed cos i was smoking so much let alone sell any...

Poxie barrister doesnt fill me with too much confidence either...

anyway rant over, but i hate lying gaurds.!

Man I didn't know all that was still going on with you. Hope it all works out in the end. Keep ur head up, never feel guilty for consuming a plant that does absolutely no harm. The only harm is prohibition creating a black market, violence and corruption. If the idiots would legalize it and tax it the gov't would benefit way more.
