This year wanna make a micro diary of my guerrilla grow and my passion for hashish processing. The most of the pictures of cultivation are crappy for safety reasons, obtained with old camera phone without GPS.
Mustapha has sent to me 200 seeds directly from Issaguen, Rif Mountains, Morocc from 2020's crop.
Pure sativa landrace grown there since 3 generations.
Mid April soaked 100 seeds, obtaining 79 seedlings.
In late July plucked away 28 males.
At the end of September cropped 49 plants.
These plants were visited only 4 times, at sowing, 1 time to cut the males,1 control and for harvest.
they have never been watered or fertilized, abandoned to themselves.
49 plants and not a single spot of rot
The most of them have been the classical columnar phenotype and purple leaves on top.
We have done a wet coarse trimming, discarded the damaged parts and indoor drying for ten days.
The resin will be processed in 3/4 different ways.
Little by little I'll add videos and pics adding comments too. I will assembly some raw materials of alternating quality cause I've not planned to make a diary of this adventure and the most of the processes have been made far from home.
This is exactly the 🇲🇦 morroccan 🇲🇦 way of sifting resin from kief. Traditionally, apart the hand rubbing method, dry sifting through a mesh is the most used way to obtain resin, from 🇦🇫 Afghanistan 🇦🇫 or 🇳🇵Nepalese 🇳🇵 Mountains to 🇲🇦 Morocc 🇲🇦 Rif passing through Bekaa valley in 🇱🇧Lebanon 🇱🇧. The average size of meshes used vary from 90 to 180 microns and are mostly made by silk and for this reason uneven.
I think the most productive ways to sift are Dry Ice and rotating pollinator + CO2, I've tried a DIY pollinator built by a friend and it can reach up to 20/25% of resin extracted at 120 microns and 15% at 90 microns. But smell and taste don't reach that traditionally extracted but this is another story.
Morroccan way is good compromise between a stashbox or more evolute methods.
It requires less than 10 dollar of expenses.
You need:
a basin or pot without handles
a heavy-duty plastic bag that contains the basin
a pair of chopsticks
a good 120 microns net
an elastic band
tape
Kif or trim q.s.
Here is the link where I buy my meshes. Very high quality, customable size and material (steel or nylon) and length and very kind vendor on AliExpress

Drum for 3 minutes.
.....perhaps you will find that you have an innate talent as a drummer, throw the shit away and put your head right......
Hey Growmies, some of you had asked to me if I prepare concentrates.......Yes I do!
I don't like modern rosin extraction but instead very rarely I like to smoke some oil.
The following is the recipe of cannabis oil made by ancient Mustapha's process.
It needs:
pharmaceutical grade ethyl alcohol (96.5% by vol.) or 95% for liquors
Weed
A jar with rounded bottom
A lot of time
This oil is 5 months aged, from 20 grams of weed I've obtained 3.5 grams of product.
Trim previously dried weed (20 grams) and put into a 500 ml jar. Cover with 200 ml of alcohol and leave it partially covered with cap. Let alcohol to evaporate on itself and shake the mixture 2 times a day. The most of the solution will evaporate within 10-15 days. When the solution is evaporated by 2/3 it needs to be filtered between 90 and 120 microns. Now is the time to finish and decarboxylate the solution by heating the jar by bain-marie until the green cream sticks to glass. The jar needs to be refrigerated before you remove the cream with a spatula to transfer it into a smaller jar. Store it in a dark place and open twice in a week for few seconds.
You'll obtain a petroleum green/dark amber cream (the green tone will turn into dark brown by time). If the job is well done the surface will crystallize and will shine like a mirror.
This cream is insanely sticky.
Smoke one drop a time. The collapse is around the corner.
Tips:
Best results, in terms of flavour/aroma, with single strain
Let alcohol to evaporate very slowly, take away some macerated weed (after at least 48 hours infusion) and add new weed/hash pieces little by little. Act as if it were a piggy bank.
The final product is a very strong shit, really narcotic.
