Bubble hash

So i have a plant that turned hermit, and i want to make bubble hash. do i have to dry out the plant or can i clip it and strait into the ice water?
thanks riu community

i think either way is fine, im pretty sure its done both ways, i think people do it fresh for a reason, im unsure though, hope someone can help, good luck

cool well im gona try fresh

dry it .........

Fresh frozen seems to bubble more imo
