Every Autumn, thousands of people look forward to one particular thing. The changing leaves or the brisk wind are not what people look forward to. It’s pumpkin. It’s pumpkin.
It’s easy to create your own hash rig from a pumpkin, and most likely you already have all the parts at home. The day after Thanksgiving is an ideal time to start.
Pumpkin Rig
MATERIALS REQUIRED
1 The medium-sized pumpkin
1 The metal spoon
1 paring knife
1 Flat bottomed glass downstem
1 The dab-nail that is designed to fit into the stem
1 Extra glass pieces, such as adapters, bowls, and so on, can be used to create a mouthpiece.
Paper towels
Bowl for collecting pumpkin guts
Directions
1. The first step is to choose the pumpkin. The first step is to choose the pumpkin.
2. Hollow out the pumpkin next by making a small hole at the top of the stem. This will create a lid to cover the remainder. With the metal scraper, remove the seeds from the gourd and the squishy insides. Put the pumpkin seeds in a small bowl to store for later use.
3. Once the pumpkin has been hollowed, create a hole to insert the downstem about an inch from the top. The hole can be made by gently twisting the paring knives while they are cutting the pumpkin. This will create a small hole that the downstem is inserted into. When the hole has been made large enough, insert the downstem by gently twisting it into the opening. If you encounter too much resistance, try hollowing it out more with the knife — glass is fragile! The flat-bottomed downstem is better than the curved ones, which are more difficult to insert. After the downstem is inserted, insert the nail.
4. The mouthpiece can be made by repeating the same process for the opposite side. It doesn’t matter what you use, for example a bowl or adapter from another rig. As far as you can, insert the downstem into the pumpkin.
5. The first time you pull the mouthpiece, check to see if there are any extra pieces of pumpkin. Inhale and check the airtightness of your lid. If you can feel the pull on the nail go ahead and heat it up — you’re ready to go!
6. You may find it helpful to ask a friend for help with dabbing. Balancing the pumpkin while looking to the opposite side makes aiming the concentrates more challenging. You can also enjoy the experience of lifting the pumpkin lid to finish the dab by submerging the face into the vapour. Ideal for all holiday occasions!
You’re feeling hungry after a few puffs from your pumpkin rig. The pumpkin is the stoner tool that keeps on giving — you can make some dank munchies from the pumpkin seeds you removed during the hollowing process described above with the easy steps below.
Roasted PumpkinSeeds in BHO-Infused olive oil
Ingredients
2-3 Olive oil tablespoons
Freshly carved pumpkins are a good source of pumpkin guts
Salt
Hash oil decarboxylated
Directions
1. To decarboxylate hash oil, put the concentrate in a heat-resistant container and then into the oven at 200°F for approximately 20 minutes. It converts THC from THCA, resulting in a powerful edible. You can store the decarbed oils in the freezer to make them brittle. This makes them easier to use.
2. While constructing the pumpkin rig, preheat an oven to 350°F.
3. Keep the pumpkin guts after you have carved the pumpkin. Put them in a small bowl.
4. In a small saucepan, melt 2-3 tablespoons decarbed oil in a low-temperature stove. The amount of hash depends on the user’s tolerance. For a mild effect, try 0.20 grams. The oil should be whisked gently to dissolve the hash in the liquid. Take care not overheat your mixture.
5. Place the seeds in a strainer and separate them as much as you can from the other pumpkin materials. The seeds should be rinsed under cold running water, and then poured onto a piece of paper towel. Pat dry.
6. Sprinkle seeds on a cookie tray, pour medicated oils over them and sprinkle a little salt. Stir the seeds to ensure they’re well-coated.
7. While you’re waiting, pop the pumpkin seeds in the oven and use the rig to take some dabs.
8. Stir the seeds after 10 minutes.
9. Remove the oven after another 10 minutes (total of 20 minutes) and allow to cool. Take your time to enjoy these crunchy treats. Sprinkle over ice-cream, add to a salad or eat them by the handful.
