Dear Fellow Grower,
In today's issue...
- Bubble hash is an old-school variety of extract that packs a deceptively powerful punch! Learn how to make this extract, and make sure you wait until the weekend to use it because bubble hash can be a day-ender!
- You can make bubble hash the easy way (with a machine), or the not-as-easy way (with a drill or your hands). Either way, you only need a little equipment to turn your trim or bud into crystalline potency!
- This week's trophy pics are just some good ol' fashioned greenery. Nothing crazy or mind-blowing, just some cool people growing some good weed. Get ready to get mellow as these pictures activate a chill Sunday-mood.

Introduction: What is Bubble Hash?
Bubble hash refers to collecting hash from your weed (or trim) by submerging the weed in ice-cold water and agitating it. This causes trichomes to break off so you can collect them.
Whenever you hear the word ‘hash’, it’s just referring to the extracted resin glands (trichomes, the sticky sparkly stuff) of a cannabis plant. The ‘bubble’ part refers to the method of using cold water and agitation to extract that resin.
Why make Bubble Hash?
- The perceived potency of bubble hash is just…great! In my opinion, it feels noticeably stronger than dry-sift, kief or dry-ice hash.
- Bubble hash is safe to make since there are no flammable ingredients or chemical reactions when making it.
- It’s also safe to enjoy as no chemicals are used during the extraction process.
- It’s a great use of trim, though making dry-ice hash is easier and produces greater yields.
Three Main Methods to Mix Up Your Hash
The cornerstone of making bubble hash is mixing up your weed, water and ice. All three of these methods produce the same quality of bubble hash. It’s the efficiency and amount of work that varies.
- (Old School) Manual Method: Using a spoon or rubber spatula and hand mixing for a while.
- Pros: Cheapest method, needs the least amount of tools.
- Cons: The most physical work and the least efficient.
- Mixer Method: Using a hand mixer with beaters attached, or a hand drill with a paint-mixer or similar tool attached.
- Pros: Many people have most of the tools needed. This method is much easier then hand-mixing and more efficient.
- Cons: Still need a drill or mixer plus a good mixing attachment that’s also long.
- A hash-washing machine (mini washing machines)
- Pros: Easiest method since you don’t have to mix. Also, the most efficient method since all the material is constantly mixed while the machine is on.
- Cons: High initial cost since you have to buy the machine (~$110).
Here’s a short video of a washer in action
Supplies
- Two 7lb bags of ice
- Your dried cannabis (bud or trim)
- Bubble Hash Bags with 25-micron drying sheet (preferably all-mesh)
- Tip: Get a pack of 25-micron drying screens and dry each of your various grades of hash on their own sheet. This makes it way easier to dry and keep your grades separated.
- 2 clean buckets
- A metal tablespoon
- A sink area with a sprayer. A clean mister or a simple cup can be used if you don’t have a sprayer
- A way to mix the hash-water
- Manual: A long cooking spoon or a rubber spatula, some patience and calories to burn.
- Hand Mixer or Drill: A hand-mixer (like you would use for cakes) with beaters attached, or a hand drill with a paint mixer attached
- A hash-washer. These are usually sold as “mini washing machines” and they’re pretty good for that, too. We use the “bubblebagdude” washer.

Bubble Hash is just plain harder to make than dry-ice hash. It's physically tougher, it takes more time, and it doesn't produce as much as in the end.
So why do we still go through the trouble of making it?
Because it's amazingly potent! I love all types of extracts, but bubble hash has a deceptively high perceived potency. The only way to truly know its power is to try it yourself.

"I have a son with cancer and he has his card and he uses rso every day to offset the terrible side effects of the chemo he has had to endure. Good news it works really really good.
Anyway I wanted to make a 100 percent organic rso for him and I followed your teaching on organic super soil and our first grow now is finished and we have an organic rso with 6 different strains. Thank you! The past couple years have been challenging to say the least but taking care of these 6 girls helped get thru!"

"I’ve never grown before I’m just making sure everything looks correct for my 5 week old GSC"
~Tiff
I thought I'd include this as a quick tip for newer growers.
So many people send us pictures thinking something is wrong, or wondering if they're doing the right thing with their plants.
Here's a test you can do yourself: Does your plant look green and leafy? Does it seem healthy to you? If you answered "yes" to both of those questions, you're most likely doing a good job already. ~Sirius
P.S. Your plant looks great, Tiff. Keep it up. 👍
