Collecting Keif?

[sharonp]

What is the cheapest way to collect keif? I don't want to grind a lot of pot, but it looks to be the easiest way for a beginner or am I missing something?

Never tried any of these yet, will be looking into it soon though. Here are a few on Amazon. I'm sure there are other options as well. Let me know how it goes.

It isn’t really hash unless you compress it with a bit of heat.

We are going to try the dry sift screens

I think you posted a video of a man in Afghanistan fry sifting keif the way they have for centuries. It was a good watch for sure.

I seen a video on how they make hash in Afghanistan. Looked pretty simple. Dry Weed,,A stick and some panty hose.

Had one since the early 2000’s. Still have it. Same brand too. It works perfectly.

Hey Thanks! I saw some other pollen boxes and I think that is the best thing for me, I have seen so far.

At what stage of curing can you collect the keif? I don't think I will be pressings anything right now. I just want to top off a bowl with it.

Scissor/ finger hash is what you get when you trim. Just scrape it off and smoke away. Good stuff to smoke. My dry ice hash was made with freshly trimmed trimmings. Curing is about the leaves, bracts, etc(the green chlorophyll matter). The trichomes don’t really cure though over time the THC breaks down into CBN(not CBD) which is a good sleep aid and analgesic. That takes a long time though.

To use a pollen box though, it would need to be dried at least.

Dried weed makes good hash or kief.

I have never tried smoking that. I don't save the leaves either. I waste a lot I guess.

That is what I was thinking. You would normally smoke it anyhow. If it was concentrated that would be a lot better. I plan on doing more later, but I just wanted to get started.

Never smoked scissor hash? You are in for a treat! Makes the tedium of trimming worth it. If you're like me, wait 'til you're done. I get ripped, I get lazy, and finger hash will tear ya up.
