Is this stuff made from Herb that has CBD or from hemp? I keep reading the dosage on mg's but wonder what strength the CBD is.
Not familiar with this particular product, but all CBD products are made from hemp--unless the product is from a state that has legalized weed--but in that case it wouldn't be available online

The mg's listed is the stregth of the CBD. So a 500mg product would have 500mg of actual CBD in it. 500mg is strong and 5000mg is crazy strong. Think the recommended CBD dosage is between 10mg-30mg each serving. Maybe a bit more, if you'd like. Hemp is like weed, different plants and strains have different potencies/effects. If available, I prefer CBD products from weed plants, not hemp. (Think its because the THC and other cannabinoids add to the overall effect). But since California introduced new regulations at the beginning of this year, I haven't been able to find a decent weed based CBD product. So I have been using hemp based CBD for the past year and it seems to work well.

I've tried a dozen different CBD companies--both hemp based and weed based--and like someone earlier posted, Lazarus Naturals is the most potent for the best price that I've found

I’m going to share a recipe I’ve been working on for a couple years .
(This is a guide line n can be made smaller or adjusted to suit your needs)

3/4-1 pound of junk, bone dry
1kg beeswax
50ml peppermint oil
3000ml coconut oil. (No smell / no taste)
15ml sunflower lecithin pre oz of material.
(Liquid is better then the powder)


In a xl crockpot on high, bring coconut oil up to temp, add lecithin, mix,
Add dry material (I usually do 1oz per 250ml of oil) mix, the material will soak in the oil, it will look like to much material at 1st. Work it with a spoon till blended, cover

Once all the litttle bubbles start around the edge . Stir again, n turn to warm .
Now leave it for 10-12 hours , stir it if you think of it .

Let cool so you can work with it.
Then filter out the material, n set aside.
Setup a double boiler, n melt 1kg of beeswax, and the coconut oil; n peppermint oil, (50ml will give you a tingle , if you are going to apply to your face 50ml is on the strong side)

Once all melted n mixed , I remove from heat n let kool over night . The next day check it , if to hard add a little coconut oil,

If it’s good , melt again n pour into small jars

It’s crazy how good this works . I give it to everyone.

And made with junk
Perfect timing for this post, BHB!

I've got some coconut oil already made. Do you foresee any issues making this with premade oil?

Happy Christmas belated Christmas to everyone!

Many folks here are doing fantastic work, and every one of you is lovely.

I have been out of commission for a few days with broken and dislocated ribs, I and will not be around much for a little bit, I need to focus on my recovery and working, so I am cutting out everything extra.

I dropped a pack of Triple Purple Rhino x Hickok Haze into rockwool cubes, primarily to find a male, but I am always about the ladies when the chips are down. Crazy excited for this one.

Running Dynasty’s Huckleberry DesTar, a really sativa dominant pheno that smells like heaven, she has over a month or so to go.

The day I broke my ribs (last Saturday) I also discovered significant two-spotted mite damage on my mother plants. I have since found them in my small flower tent that is barely budding, but not the big flower tent with the Huckleberry, thank goodness. So, yeah, going to be a busy month. Really slow moving, really busy.

I loved reading all the updates, it was one of the highlights of my day. Half of you don’t get half the respect you deserve, and the rest of you get even less. Keep up the good fight, friends.

For those interested in “ zero veg” 12/12 from clone or seed, these girls were run under 600w HPS at 12/12 from tiny little barely rooted clones, no topping, no pruning, and very little pinching or bending. The clones had so few roots when they went in, one didn’t make it, so I am growing some peppers. Finally got my homemade nutrient solution dialed in for DWC. See small pic for maximum concentration, which lands near EC 2.4 S/m^3

I didn’t change my rez until it got pretty hot, EC 2.6! Hence the tip burn. The bell pepper gives no fucks.

Dang double whammy. Broken ribs are definitely no laughing matter......2,3,4......no chuckles aloud, or allowed. And no coughs, so baby tokes...baby tokes...you'll be good as new by spring thaw !

How long is pollen good for once I pull it out of the freezer? 2 weeks or less? I'll research around but figured I'd take it to the thread.
I would use it right away after it gets to room temp. When you freeze it even with proper drying some of it will be lost do to moisture expanding and rupturing cells. It will degrade fast once thawed.

I always store in multiple small a tubes so I only have to defrost what I'm going to use.

Damn, that's what I was thinking, but was wishful thinking.

It is just the black dog females I'm hitting are fast flower at like 50 days so I have to hit them a little sooner than the lvtk.

I'll just fertilize everything right away. I think I will still try to use the pollen a week after on the lvtk since it is a little further behind the b. dogs.

It may still work, it doesn't take much so even degrading pollen will work as long as a few of the 1000's of cells are still viable.

No joke on the broken ribs though, that's shits a bitch. @Michael Huntherz I feel for you bro, I've done it a few times. Stay lit my man.
Not my first go with it either. Sucks every time.

Amos Otis is The Undaunted Comic. Thanks for the tip on baby tokes. :joint:

I see many edibles in my near future, even baby tokes are pushing it right now. :peace:
