Here is a cross post from here with the general method based on my prior run. That thread contains the journey to dehydrated teas. I use them for preservation, to make gummies, and for more potent capsules.

**********

• This time I did a vacuum extraction of 509 grams of fresh subtropicalis.
  
• I used three decoctions using 500 ml of preboiled and cooled filtered water for each decoction.
  
• I added approximately 1 gram of ascorbic acid powder to each 500ml decoction.
  
• I drew a vacuum on 2000 ml canning jars using an electric vacuum pump.
  
• This time I used 5-Pack 5 Gallon Reusable Mesh Filter Bags 5 Color Nylon Filter Bags 25 to 220 Micron Suitable for Hydroponics Gardening and Industrial Applications in succession to filter out the solids. This was far easier and more effective than all prior methods I have tried. Next time I may run the final tea from the 25 micron bag through a Aeropress to see if I can reduce the solids any further.
  
• Then I dried the tea to crystals at 71c for 48 hours in small silicone cups.
  
• The final weight of the dried tea was 20 grams which is a 96% reduction from fresh to dried tea.
  
• Multiple samples of the dried tea were tested using the qtest and colorimeter with results around 45mg/g of dried tea.
  

This has been the best reduction and potency result so far. The crystals are a bit more powdery and a more redish brown than other runs. I am looking forward to seeing how much I can stuff into a 00 capsule and how gummies turn out.


Looks a bit more like how I picture melange/spice.

This was supposed to be a novelty for Halloween.  Hillbilly pumpkin.

But it basically blobbed out. 

It wasn't what I was going for but the results actually turned out kind of cool.









Looks like his brain. 



Then I went for this ice cream cone.
Again not the results I was looking for.







But the dip n dots kinda look cool too.


I'll probably still post the them in the novelty thread. But I'm going to wait. So I can try again for better results. and post them all at the same time.




Damn HBP.  Everything I put together turned out like this.  Heres to a badass second flush

Interesting, I had something similar happen with something that might've had HBP.

This was from 3AM thought was Phantom, PE x Ghost because the fruits looked like that, but I remember the original swabs having Hillbilly Pumpkin, so who the fuck truly knows.

But yeah, I cloned what I thought was an early plin. Turns out I cloned grape-like cluster similar to yours.



I'd still get a few fruits, some that are swabbable, but I was plagued by these clusters.
