My crashed diamonds are inconsistent

@JazzIsDead

What besides strain will effect the consistency/structure of the diamonds?

Saturation level…

Learn of the metastable zone & understand why Ostwald ripening is your friend. (Read more…)

@pangea

IMO, playing with and understanding saturation level is the most important aspect to growing crystals in a sauce. Understanding the metastable zone boundaries and how to manipulate your solution to those boundaries via temp and solute concentration. IMO, one of the the biggest hindrance compared to most crystal growers is the lack of an isolated solvent component to aid in that manipulation.

What we need for THCA and typical terpene/terpene mixtures.

You do realize you can just add more solvent at try again when you miss right?!?

@downtheterphole

as long as you’re not decarbing your jar experiment you can always just add more solvent and fix the ratio

No?
