Processing trimmed leaves
The inner leaves of the cannabis plant can be processed to make hash. Use your magnifying
glass and look for mushroom like gland on the leaf. If the leaves contains no glands, it is
recommended to discard them as they will only contaminate the end product.
Flat screening
The trichomes can be successfully collected by rubbing the leaves against a fine steel of silk
screen. Scrub the leaves against the screen, the plant material will be left on the screen and
the fine THC containing thrichomes will be falling through the screen. Collect the thrich-
omes by scraping them together with a credit card.
Either you can smoke the thrichomes directly or you can compress them into a hash. To pro-
duce hash, simply place the material inside a plastic bag and tie a knot making sure that the
plastic bag is sealed. After sealing the plastic bag, wrap packing tape tightly around the ball
of thrichomes making sure that it is completely water tight. Start boiling water and let the
bag sit in the boiling water for seven minutes. Then press the bag with a rolling pin. Finally,
open the bag and the end product will be a smokeable hash.
