Rosin pressing

 Ok, so I decarbed some weed, to press, and make vape juice with the rosin. 120 micron bag, packed it up, pressed it TWICE, and got absolutely nothing. NOTHING!!!

  Just for S&G, I packed a bag with 4 grams of same weed, not decarbed, still in nugs. I got 0.9 grams!!! What gives??  You can't press decarbed weed, or what?

I'm scratchin' my noggin here.

    • Not sure if I'm following your decarbing to make rosin for edibles or to vape? You said vape juice why would you decarb when you vape that is itself decar ing I thought heat is heat. When they make live rosin it's from buds right off the plant. When you decarb THC chemically changes to delta 9 the THC that gets you high so if you decarb once then press it with heat it has already changed so you cant add more heat more heat then your oven like lighter heat just my thought.

      • I think decarbing something to smoke is a contradiction of terms. And seems to me decarbing what your going to cook doesn't make sense either cause it would decarb when it gets cooked. I have little experience making edibles so I may be way off. I would say if anything press then decarb if you want to make edibles of out of what you press. I would say decarbed weed is always dry and pretty crispy, I really wouldn't expect anything to press from it. Ok brain overload. It hurts to think that long. lol

        • i dont do any rosin pressing yet but why would you decarb it and then put it in a heat press? im not sure but you can overdo the decarboxilation process very easy. 

          some people decarb their weed for, say brownies, then they go off and cook their brownies for 35 minutes at 350 degrees!! by that time all you have is brownies and nobody wants that shite!

          • A couple of minutes in a heat press @220* isn't enough to decarb it.

            Not sure if a vape will get it hot enough, like flame combustion.

            I'm with Rick, my brain hurts!

                • Smoke and vape don't need decarb and bud needs to have a little moisture in it to help get the oil flowing. Some require a little more heat.

                  • When you get it working let us know how the "smoke" is especially for your migraines. I have a crap load of Autoflower left over from the Auto challenge and I am thinking that is the best use for it.
