[skiz1989]

hey all, idk if this is a stupid question or not, but i pretty much have my hydro system set up and everything, but i didnt want to waste so much money on buying some seeds (since ive never grown) so i figured ill try to grow some mid grade seeds that came in some herb i bought, how likely is it that theyll germinize? even if so does that mean they'll grow?

Its a good way to go about it, as if its your FIRST grow chances are you will either over water or over fertilize

If your talking about seeds you found from a stash you smoked then its called bag seed and seems to more often than not produce hermis. To germinate just put a couple peices of tissue paper in warm/hot water and put them on a saucer. Then place the seed ontop and cover with a couple other peices of warm/hot tissue paper and put another suacer ontop to form a mini dome. This keeps humidity up and will help if you leave on a window in sun to keep the temps quite warm. This is what i always use and get 99% germinated That said it depends on the age of the seeds. Not ALL seeds will germinate and this is made worse as time goes on.

mh ill message you my gingerbread recipe man
and yes i made that tree i sold a heap of em for xmas
i baked 500 pieces over the weekend aswell as pulled icky i can hardly fucking move lol
i still got 10 trees to assemble and decorate tonight lol

 

[MasterHemp]

oh man that is alot of gingerbread trees!
i looked up some recipes already including the icing but ill be waiting for yours for sure

 

[Grumpy Old Dreamer]

Welcome back MH, I hope you enjoyed your break

odlaw: how much do those trees cost, what with the components plus all the labour to assemble them they wouldn't be cheap.

 

[odlaw]

well i sold em for 25 (prob should have charged about 35 to 40 ) mostly to family and close friends and still made an ok dollar out of it as the tress dont need alot of lollies on em like houses
just fucks my arthritis over bending over icing the fuckers lol
i did a couple houses to sold em for 50 each

hmm i cant seem to find any photos of the house finished but i painted up the snowmen put red and green strips in the door and the veranda got iced with hundreds and thousands sprinkled on it and some freckles and a red and white spiral striped marshmallow pole up ecach front corner of the house and i melted down some hard lollies and the back window had stained glass lol
i do cakes and shit to i got third place at a show last 2 yrs running for my decorated cakes

ps: not sure which ill do for the special one mh the tree u can break apart layer by layer so easy to eat and store where as the house u basically got to destroy to start eating it but it does have lots of munchies attached for ron

last time i made a batch of mull cookies i was waiting for a mate to come round i ate one didnt feel anything by the time i ate four it had only just started to kick in. by the end i was so wasted i couldnt get off the couch and needless to say my mate missed out. have you got any trimmings master hemp? i used leaf and bud and that fully wacked me. ive found from experience that you have to choose a recipe that needs heaps of butter so your gingerbread icing is gonna be lethal.

odlaw i think you should make your own special batch of mull tree gingerbread id prefer that over a christmas tree any year.

 

[steve6green]

has anyone tried to make their own carbon filter? the one ive got works okay but the smell is still leaking out (i actually think its my clones) for my next grow i plan to use a bigger room (roughly 2.4 x 2.4) as well as my current grow room and am trying to get out of it cheaply. noise is my biggest problem and cops always going nextdoor im feeling a little paranoid.
didnt help when i left my refill tap on my reservoir on and it overflowed and almost killed my 1000w hps ballast (and me for that matter) awesome feeling seeing an inch of water lapping around electrics.

That looks mouth watering, so complex mmm yummy
i Would change this though "i got third place at________________ last 2 yrs running for my decorated cakes"
That could be a dead giveaway for the pigs, just sayin...

They sound like some real potent cookies i haven't had cannabis cookies before, so i was unaware that the thc taste would be present
im definitely going to do something with flavor if this is the case, i do have some trim left over from my previous harvest but its not much to make anything worthwhile out of, i should have alot more trim within the next 2 weeks when i harvest, so i will make another batch of edibles with that, for now im going to make some gingerbread men
ill make 2 batches one with cannabutter and the other batch without, should make for some good christmas treats for the kids and really good "special" treats for some of the adults

 

[Grumpy Old Dreamer]

When I get to the stage of having enough trim to experiment with, I will be using refined coconut oil to absorb the THC and filling "00" size gel caps.
I don't see the fun in trying to control the dosage when putting it in food - one cap, two caps, three caps ... floor sounds better.
Our friends in the USA get to pay high dollars for coconut oil/butter - we in Australia get access to Copha for next to nothing.
Copha is about 98% saturated fats and it's apparantly the saturated fats that are needed to bind with the THC.

 

[skiz1989]

It has a very obvious vegetable matter type taste. As GOD said Copha will give you better results (its what i was given the first time i ate it in food) but the taste isnt as nice when using butter. That said copha also stores ALOT longer than butter.

So far i find "white wings Hot fudge brownies" produce the worst taste, but "betty croker white choc chip cookies" makes it almost untastable. All three mates who tried the cookies were all ripping on me because they thought i didnt add shit to them at first as they tasted the same and didnt kick in for about 15mins to half an hour. Once they hit thought your gone for the day


GODS idea of caps sounds good, although ill let him experiment with how to do it first Baked goods arnt as fun as smoke i don't think as it gives you a really weird feeling that lasts for what seems to be ever.


EDIT: i don't think you taste the THC per say, its more the plant matter as anything thats lipophillic will bind to the butter. If there are tutes out on how to refine your butter i think it would be worth doing

 

[odlaw]

is vaped out of his mind on some icky hash scrapings
man its been along time since i smoked hash
hmm better back to the gingerbread trees lol

 

[steve6green]

masterhemp did you end up getting those bubblebags off ebay?? im about 3-4 weeks off from my harvest and were wondering if you had given yours a trial run

The last time i ate any cannabis baked goods was around 2 years ago, hash cookies, at a 80's party, i was told to only eat 1 as they were strong, me being me, ate 2, cant remember getting home, no idea how i got there and spent from 6.30am to roughly 2pm comatosed in bed, about every 10 mins id get the spins, slowly spin harder until id vomit, then id be ok for 10 mins, it was sooooo hardcore LOL do you think "Betty Crockers white choc chip cookies" would taste as good on the way back up ? lol

hahah tbh, i got the dual pack where half were white choc and the other half normal choc. I used the normal for the weed and the whites for munchies (otherwise thats a fucking terrible cycle lol....i got the munchies ill have some cookies...o wait now its worse....ill have more cookies....) The copha was given to me by a mate so not sure how strong it was but it was the first time i ever did it in food and got to admit its not fun. Similar story to yours where you think your fine but then BAM it hits again. After learning about the pharmacokinetics of drugs and its various ways to be administered the hugh and lows make perfect sense.

betty crocker was a bit up market for me skiz must have deep pockets ive always stuck to greens budget mixes

hahha i just add it to the normal shopping list, was unaware there was a differnce in price?

That reminds me of a time actually in the early Eighties

It was a time when hash oil was popular if you could get it - I had bought a 00 cap of oil that looked "watered down" so I thought ... "fuck it" and swallowed it.

30 mins later I was sitting down to a family dinner with my mates parents when it hit me ... a wave of deadness spreading out from my belly until I was a heavily sweating, grey looking breathing corpse that had to be "excused" from the table.

Vomiting didn't do any good as the cap had already done the deed - it didn't stop be throwing up until there was nothing left but badly beaten stomach lining.

Several hours later and during every lucid moment, I was still telling my mate that there was no need to call an ambulance ... then the "body spin" would start again.

Definitely a night to remember

@ G.O.D. - ROFLMAO Im only laughing because you described it so darn well, especially the "white/grey looking breathing corpse" part along with the "body spins".

I learnt my lesson, bring a bucket and a pillow next time LOLOLOL.
