couple questions on HBWR...

[zmb187]

So i get the whole cold water extraction....just want to know if its better in lemon juice or the water.....also i see that I should filter out the powder after extraction....even use a tea bag... Well should it be more potent to down it all...meaning wet seeds and water ....I know should mix with juice ...wanted to see the bet method yall tried ....thanx ..

You don't want to be drinking that powder. Filter it.
A slightly acidic solution helps but I wouldn't use straight lemon juice. You don't want something with sugars in it sitting for awhile. White vinegar is a much better idea.

I prefer an 1876 balsamic

Ooh think that vinegar be lil rough ...sure it will dilute in orange juice..... Brings up another question ......how much water and how much juice?? .... Figure cap full of vinegar cap full lemon juice to how much water??also what amount of seeds is considered good to strong trip of the Madagascar strain??

Madagascar ? ? , Might as well plant them

I used to use about 1 cup off R/O water per about 10-15 Hawian seeds (scraped very well)

Last night we did some, it had been awhile!

Liberties got it right, I've used lemon juice and I feel like it does work.

SWIM can report from last night that the extraction went well...... Def lasted the full 8 hrs if not more......did as ya suggested MrEduck!! Minus the vinegar ...didnt have any on hand ... Squeeze of fresh lemon...bout 2oz and bout 4oz of cold water ..... 24 hrs later it was ready....... Used 8 scraped seeds in a tie shut tea bag.....

There are much better methods.. But whatever.

If your gonna do it like this, as liberty chicken said, use good water.. No chlorine,
Don't let light touch it especially while in solution. I assume your just gonna drink that water or whatever..gross. Keep that water in the fridge while its doing its thing. Its really sensitive and you'll notice a huge difference in potency if its made properly.


But yes filter it after the time allotted. Lemon juice is pointless. The distilled water would be plenty acidic anyway after sitting with air touching it. Easily drops to a pH around 5..
But you don't really want an acidic solution unless your trying to play with it, convert it into other shit.

Cool and with out the lemon i bet you could see the affect on the water easier....yup didnt add every detail but yes used bottled water in a sealed jar tinted to keep from light ..... Nah didnt even wanna taste it raw with the juice so added as much juice as i used water .... Bout another 6oz of orange juice.....one shot ....

Can the the tea bag be used twice??
