Probably too much gas, let it sit barely capped
Capped, medium. Oven overnight
This morning
Still bubbly, firm cap and back in the oven
This afternoon. all done. That’s the consistency I was looking for. Easy to package. Smells crazy good.
It worked just like you guys said it would. So cool. Thank you. Now onto some bigger batches.

Looks like you didn’t have enough solvent on ur cold crash pics
Hey, im just trying this out and im not sure, after 24 hours i got a seperation.
On the bottom there is a white layer, dont know if this is the the thc or if this is some fat or wax?
Can someone with more knowledge tell me what i have here?
If it is crunchy down in the bottom it probably worked. It may not be done yet. I’ll let others advise.

Thanks, ive tried to take some of it with a spartula let the butane evaporate and what was left was a white non sticky fine granulate.
Ive tried to squeeze it with my fingers to make sure if it sticks like the oil itself. But now im not sure if the crystals will also stick like oil or fall apart like ive wrote above
This is about 26 hours after i put it into dry ice
Mine stayed in solution for a long time. I used hot jar tek, not dry ice.
But, once it hit the right temperature, saturation point and pressure it turned nearly all of it to crunchy wet sugar
.
I probably could have let it go on for days to see how separated it would get. But, I need to get it to the lab and on the shelf. This is the consistency our customers ask for. Motts applesauce. This is one of 6 jars. They all came out the same. I didn’t take pictures.

Cool! Could it also be that i have to much solvent left? And just dewaxed it again or will the crystals always crush out?
Pure thca

Really? That would be supercool! 
Does the size of the seed you use matter? I have been using seeds that weigh from half of a gram to a full gram. Had a co worker ask if using a 7g seed would have better results or would you just be wasting a nice stone?
yes. too small and it may vanish.
using a large seed should make that seed larger. if the goal is to grow the biggest “diamond” then using your biggest crystal to date is probably the fastest route.
more smaller seeds would be my approach.
