when i had a border collie he always loved rolling in duck or goose shit. he also knew wednesdays was trash day and he'd occasionally get past me, sneak out of the yard and knock over neighbors trash cans to forage.did he roll in something dead? Our border collie used to do that all the time. Right on his neck/shoulder area. Yuck
does she clean herself? like a cat would?Heyyy I was trying to wrap my head around that yesterday...why is it that Kushy (my shepard husky) doesnt smell as bad as the pit. I was thinking maybe because the thick hair retains the b.o. lol idk . The pit needs more baths then Kushy
not as much as a cat, but i notice her licking areas sometimes. I will brush her more tho thanksdoes she clean herself? like a cat would?
they self clean like cats, they technically bathe themselves they only need to be bathed once a year (unless an incident like this happens) and you shouldnt bathe them anymore than that because it can mess with their natural oils huskies have for weather protection,
you should however brush them twice weekly.
when i got thor i read up on everything husky and lab wise.not as much as a cat, but i notice her licking areas sometimes. I will brush her more tho thanks

Man, you rock. This is great info. So, you're saying there's no real advantage to cooking the butter for much longer than an hour at 210f, is there any real disadvantage? Am I decreasing potency or any other such hazard?personally. i would use coconut. its gained popularity since i joined but people seem to forget why its recommended.
for any that dont know..i know ive said this before.
thc has a logp of about 7-very non polar
In practice optimum colonic is 1.32-rather polar, intestinal is 1.35, oral 1.8, Cns 2, percutaneous at 2.6 and sublingual 5.5
Notice how this increases exponentially
So in a way the more non polar, the sooner it would be absorbed in the body
the longer the chain the more non polar and the more it will hold in solution. Lauric having a log p of about 4.5..and smallest mct having a logp about 1.8
The mct thing, isnt that big of a deal though. The main difference is it wont hold quite as much in solution due to the shorter chains and the higher polarity. Lauric being the longest mct, is best and found largely in coconut oil...mcts being best for oral use as they are taken up differently than larger triglycerides....as an example this is why thc is hard to use as a suppository(see above)..We do need to lower the polarity of thc as it is to get it to absorb efficiently..but the fairly polar fatty acids in coconut are fine and the variation of those acids is ok. The difference between the mcts wont have too much of an impact because its still a mix and, in any case a large portion will still absorb sublingually and quickly in your stomach..the numbers are optimum absorption but they overlap into each other.
from my coconut oil thread..
"....Now Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are medium-chain (8 to 10 carbons, kinda 6-12)
In the digestive system MCTs are broken down into individual fatty acids (MCFA). Unlike other fatty acids, MCFA are absorbed directly from the intestines into the portal vein and sent straight to the liver where they are, for the most part, burned as fuel much like a carbohydrate. In this respect they act more like carbohydrates than like fats.
Other fats require pancreatic enzymes to break them into smaller units. They are then absorbed into the intestinal wall and packaged into bundles of fat (lipid) and protein called lipoproteins. These lipoproteins are carried by the lymphatic system, bypassing the liver, and then dumped into the bloodstream, where they are circulated throughout the body. As they circulate in the blood, their fatty components are distributed to all the tissues of the body. The lipoproteins get smaller and smaller, until there is little left of them. At this time they are picked up by the liver, broken apart, and used to produce energy
MCTs do not require bile salts for digestion and therefore, passively absorbed by the intestinal tract into the blood stream where they are used for energy.. of course a bit simplified but basically faster onset and less degradation occurs...also contributes to thcs extended terminal half life as it has the opportunity to attach to various tissues
but you really shouldnt have it in the crockpot that long. the fat absorbs thc or like hash, very quickly. the time frame is extended for the sole purpose of decarbing. at 210 this takes roughly an hr when visually decarbing over double boil depending depth etc
2lbs is quite a bit of trim. id guess roughly 90 grams of hash is in that depending on quality. how much butter were you planning on using?
consider that about 3x the quantity is needed for the same effect as smoking. easy enough to do some quick math and see how much yiu want per cookie. and cost...i normally do 300mg edibles for people like myself
Thanks, Dia. But for me to take you seriously, you're going to have to back that up with a bunch of chem techno talk that I barely understand...Yep, only takes about an hour
love me some homemade hot sauceAfter finally lookingin the freezer I realised there may be too many super hots for cooking and drying and hot sauce making as normal.
I'm talking about 20-25 pounds of each type. I grew 10 types.
Big hot saucemaking time comi g up and migjy look into selling at a local market. Few friends run stands there already.
damn 30 jars made last week and maybe another 200 i could make with whats left
If ya want a couple just send me a pm.love me some homemade hot sauce
