I would have happily seen a 2 hour movie about an anatomically incorrect piece of plastic for theirs.

Lol you’re not one of those guys triggered by a movie are you?

Deep dive here from a few days ago. I just picked up a small bottle of everclear to try to make a tincture. I have a bit of meh weed in jars and grove bags that won't get used by anybody I know that uses it. It's from my first couple grows. I think I'm just gonna decarb it all and use it for budder and/or coconut oil, and tincture. If it is not great flower, what kind of flower to everclear ratio should I be looking for?

I use just enough to cover the decarbed bud once I chop it up some. I use mainly the older stuff I have in rotation unless something new I just finished growing really catches my eye for making tincture. I let mine soak a lot longer than most going 7 days in the freezer so it gets all the goodies but it picks up more chlorophyll that way. Keeping everything frozen helps with that some though and I only use 8-12 drops in my coffee or Gatorade so the taste is fine to me.

Hypothetically speaking, I could soak it for the hour, strain it, save the weed in the freezer, and redo the process again if it isn't strong enough, right?

I would think so. Back when people used Isopropyl alcohol for the extraction they would do two or three separate fast washes like for 60-90 seconds and then evap each one separately to have different strengths. Most would end up combining the first two washes and then evaporating them. I've always used Everclear as I just don't trust myself to get all the isopropyl out of the tincture and Everclear works great at 190 proof.

What he said. I start with a full quart jar of chopped bud and add enough Everclear to cover. The 1 hour stuff I just made tastes pretty good actually. It may be because the bud was pretty tasty. I jar the primo buds and set aside the lower and larfy buds for tincture.

Movies are entertainment ... I either like or dislike the directors interpretation of the script. They don't trigger me in any way.

The anatomical incorrectness - the first few versions of the Barbie doll had tits that were a little too disproportionate for the torso.

 

[laddyd]

I would add I'm using 190 proof Everclear. That is crucial for a quick wash.

Yeah, we've got the good stuff. None of that watered down crap. Haha

Spoiler, but they might address her "incorrectness" in a pretty funny way O: possibly my hardest laugh of the movie, in fact

I have found the flavor difference between nice bud and trim to be leaps and bounds different. After this most recent batch of trim snot I am considering only using buds for my qwet from here on... Tastes like poison

OK ... gotta see this flick then. You have suddenly - and rather dramatically - increased my curiosity in watching Babs.

Welp, here goes nothin. Ground up 1.5 oz of some Volcano Girl I harvested in October. Oven at 230° for 40 minutes



Also, look how much purple has showed up the last couple days.

INCOMING!

Is there a good way to tell if your weed is decarbed properly?

Also, how do you store it in the freezer? Just keep it in the foil pouch? Let it cool off first, I imagine?

I put mine in the quart jars so all I had to do was dump in the Everclear.

That is precisely what I was hoping to hear. Thank you

 

[TCH]

And now, we wait.

It really was super enjoyable. I'd see it again. And EVEN with a boy...

That's the same shit that made me drop stuff on my toe and almost die earlier. You be careful
