Got some very well grown and cured (visible trichomes) Shillong landrace direct from the farmer. Set aside 2g to make a small batch of cannaghee.

Used an air fryer at 115° for 40 mins to decarb followed by putting the finely crushed dry herb in ghee in a closed Ball glass jar and simmering in a water bath for 90 mins on an infrared cooktop.

The remaining material after straining out the ghee smelled potent so I made bhang from it by grinding with milk into a superfine paste.

Turned out very well. Pics show the stages with the ball being left over plant material post two-stage extraction.

Has anyone heard of rosin over here and have you ever heard of someone making it in the country?

Rosin is all the rage in the western world, even EU. Thailand has insane rosin too but I am so surprised no one even talks about it here.

We already make a lot of ice water hash in the valley so statistics define that someone would have experimented with making rosin here. Curious to know if there’s other hash rosin enthusiasts like me in the country.

Tests found that 92% cannabis grown in US have pesticides in them. Similar pesticides or worse are also used by Indian landrace cultivators to safeguard the crops. This is quite concerning as inhaling these chemicals causes far more harm as opposed to eating food which was sprayed with pesticides
