Water Cruing for Mold - Saving The Harvest

[chemphlegm]

Ok i didn't come to the forum to be told to go read an extensive grow bible, i was asking the collective knowledge of the forum members for their personal best ways.

just wow. you'll fit right in

This is a dangerous game you are playing. You are wagering your health on some free nuggets.

I believe its penicillium or some common mold that grows rapidly... big web looking mold, obviously not going to grind up a nice dank moldy nug and smoke the spore keef my grinder collects.

I use clove oil to put fish to sleep, not sure that is a smell I want anywhere near my weed.

I Promise the oil is more potent than the cloves... people smoke clove cigarettes!

I know, I use clove oil as a source of eugenol which is an anesthetic.

not the right answer

Read the link I provided. If you are going to complain about the good advice then smoke all the mold you can. It’s natural selection at this point.


Penicillium causes food spoilage, colonizes leather objects and is an indicator organism for dampness indoors. Some species are known to produce toxic compounds (mycotoxins). The spores can trigger allergic reactions in individuals sensitive to mold

I've been propper sick from smoking moldy weed before.

I am not trying to bark away your good advice guys, i appreciate the involvement, i'm simply trying to stir up the conversation towards the post in a challenging way... Stay tuned and well see how it comes out. but basically what you are saying is this 20 grams isnt worth experimenting to save? Im looking at it with a microscope and washing it through water curing with natural anti-fungals for 10 straight days, then drying in high heat. Meanwhile you are all yelling at me that im going to die haha. Im not smoking moldy weed, simply seeing if mold growth is possible to reverse. Stay tuned should be interesting to see the nugs after.

For less than an ounce risk your lungs and health????
I'm sure the doctor bills will exceed the street cost of an ounce real fast. People are not being assholes to you they are just saying what you are trying is pointless. Especially, especially for 20 measly grams

Yes your method may work, and you'll get your great peppermint weed you are looking for, but maybe just try to grow better next time. I don't see this being logical at all, I get you wanting to do an experiment just "because" but that "because" is mold spores on your lungs that can grow and become real nasty issue....microscope helps, but are you trained to say you don't see or detect anymore mold, and clear it to go smoke?

You can't just wait until you hear what you want, it's a bad idea plain as that, the risk/reward ratio is ass backwards imo

The only thing I'd do if it was apocalypse and needed this last twenty grams forever, is a h2o2 wash, which is controversial , more water to rid mold. And then make an extract out of it, ISO or something. But for twenty grams again, what's the risk reward

Even if you don't see mold, at the end, are you confident that it isn't clear under a microscope and still present , better safe than sorry is a great phrase

And smoking moldy weed sucks, it's similar to galvanized poisoning if you ever welded, flu like it sucks

Can mold grow in your lungs,
from a dab?
Seems odd to me it could,
need a lab.
But one thing I know of
this is true
tokin' on them mold toxins
give you flu.

Never said the end result was smoking it.- i've put too much into it now to not at least mess around. Relax

For the sake of this thread i'm going to still record my findings. However i want to make it clear for people reading this- Mold is not a joke, and not to be messed around with. The Purpose of this discussion is for EDUCATIONAL purposes and is more of an experiment than a legit way to get bud. (Some people in the thread have a hard time understanding this.)

 

[Indacouch]

If you smoke that it's one thing ....all I ask is that you tell people what you've done before offering it to them .....you should have tossed it IMO

This bud probably isnt even being smoked by me? its an experiment haha, my friends are already well aware of it!

 

[BryBry10102]

And i am a MacroBiology major, although i'm just a freshmen so definitely not qualified to identify and examine mold... I have access to those resources however.

[DieselNuts]

I appreciate the effort and experimentation.
I have definitely seen videos on water curing. It works.

I have not used it or seen a smoke report on it after and obviously thats most important.
I know the old timers make hash from their moldy buds. Freeze them and through em an ice bath,agitate, and screen

HAve fun!

To me at close glance this thread is
BAD education!
Don't smoke moldy weed,
Don't water cure with stuff to kill the mold
Don't get your friends to try your experiment

just maybe, if you educated yourself before you dried it wrong ...This wouldn't be needed?

Don't kick a dead horse, toss it before someone gets sick.
