Powdery Mildew Hash Washing

๐Ÿ’ง Extraction First mentioned: Ep. 002

A remediation technique for processing cannabis affected by powdery mildew into hash. After ice water extraction, each micron fraction is placed in jars with cold water, shaken, and settled to float mildew spores to the surface for removal.

Bubbleman gives detailed instructions in Episode 002 for Mike who has PM-affected plants. He recommends labeling jars with micron sizes, scooping hash into cold water, shaking and settling, then skimming floating mildew spores that appear as 'a slick on the water.' He notes the process takes about 30 minutes per bag and acknowledges it extends resin exposure to water but ensures clean final product. The grater used must be boiled afterward.
