A method of processing cannabis plant matter is provided. It is a particular aspect of the invention to utilize cannabis waste from the processing methods and in a sense recycle and use the byproducts to create additional products. The method describes harvesting cannabis plant matter at a predetermined time, processing the cannabis plant matter to create cannabis juice and cannabis pulp, and utilizing the cannabis pulp to create additional products. This eliminates the waste from processing cannabis plant matter solving a potential crisis in the fact that cannabis plant matter having cannabinoids leech into the soil and water table from disposal.

The invention relates to a method for producing an extract from cannabis plant matter, containing tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabidiol and optionally the carboxylic acids thereof. According to said method, the dried plant matter is ground and subjected to a CO.sub.2 extraction and the primary extract obtained is separated. The invention method permits Δ.sup.8 or Δ.sup.9 tetrahydrocannabinol to be selectively obtained both from industrial hemp and from drug-producing hemp, optionally after dissolving the primary extract in ethanol, separating undesirable waxes and removing the solvent under reduced pressure.

A horizontal axis rotary separation apparatus is deployed in a process for separating resinous trichomes rich in flavoring, aromatic and/or medicinal components produced in plant trichome glands from unwanted plant matter. The process physically separates resin rich beads at the trichome gland head from extraneous plant matter by one or move separation sieves. The sieves are provided in or as a casing over a rigid frame member. The sieves are mesh fabric bags or screen that are easily opened and replenished in a batch operating mode, and are removable from the frame for cleaning and maintenance. Other aspects of the invention include processes that improve process efficiency and speed, and yield products of superior quality.
