It's not a matter of having a plan to convert THC. It's a matter of not realizing that my last grow was going to yield much more than I could smoke in a given amount of time and, as a result, having weed in jars that's gone beyond its shelf-life. I'm not really into the flavor now, but I...

^^^This, This and nothing but This!

I just ordered the Dake on sale on Ebay for $371 shipped and it will be here next Wednesday. I hope I get the plates/rig by next week, too....but I haven't heard from them that the order has shipped yet. I'll have to get some odds and ends like rosin bags and a piece of thick leather to use as...

I have priced many, many rosin presses, plates, etc. Most of the all-in-one rosin presses are very expensive. The cheap ones appear to be either extremely small or extremely crappy quality. I think if I can get the Dake press for ~$375 shipped and combine that with my new $400 Low Temp Plates...

Well, I was considering it....but when I watched a video of a guy who bought one, he pointed out the large amount of "slop" between the H frame and the part (beam?) that moves up and down along it..He ended up doing so many tweaks to it and spending so much time before he was happy with it, I...

I completely changed my plan yesterday when I realized I could get a Low Temp Plates CAGED plate set with controller for $400 and change. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on it. It looks like a nice setup, anyway. Now, all I need to do is to finalize which press to get. I like the Dake B10...

Commercial oil is hit/miss it seems. I usually get rosin because it's the best bet for getting something clean. BHO, on the other hand, has been a mostly negative experience. I can almost always taste the butane it it -especially if it's wax. Sometimes, it even crackles! If I can't get rosin...

That's the current #1 contender.

These are the ones I'm thinking about...but maybe they will go on sale for Black Friday(?) Pretty good deal from the looks of it. There are a few different variations of rosin plate sets they sell. This one looked like the best one to me...

It's not a bad idea to get more tonnage from the press depending on the size of the plates. If you're using large plates, then the psi decreases dramatically. The larger the surface area of the plates, the less pressing power you will have.

DHGate plates seem to be what many people are ordering now. Combine them with a decent press like a Dake B10. They have great reviews and are much less expensive than most of the all-in-one presses. I am considering them, myself. I just need to find the best price and deal on the best press...

Yeah, the oozed tar that came out of the pods had accumulated dirt and dust and various junk so I thought that boiling the pods and then filtering it through a coffee filter would clean it up. I figured I had done something wrong, but just wanted to experiment. Oh well, it does smell...

Interesting @nfhiggs! Thanks! The savings in the efficiency of LED over, say, HPS or MH, is somewhat negated then, by the need to add heat to the growing space in order to bring the transpiration rate up so that the plant can uptake the CalMag. That's great if you grow in a naturally warm area...

Cal Mag deficiencies under LED have been reported a lot. What, exactly, about LEDs is making plants deficient in these minerals? Do these deficiencies also appear under "blurple" LED and full-spectrum white LED the same way? Could it be due to the lack of UV spectrum?

Papaver somniferum grows wild like weeds in yards all over the city. We have a shit ton in the garden. I just left them alone. But then after awhile I decided to slit a few of them using a bunch of single-edged razor blades that I taped together...it made the multiple slashes in one pass. After...

I can't understand how vacuum sealing would cause greater degradation than not doing it, though. How is that possible? Isn't the "aging" process due to oxidation? So, if removing the air from the inside of the jar is decreasing the O2 levels inside the jar, then that should SLOW...

Volatile terpenes are also in abundance when trimming and inhaling strong terpenes for hours can really give me a headache.

I think attaining the old school flavor weed strains is going to take some time because those stinky terpenes were what growers tried to breed away/out back in the days when it was a sure prison sentence if you got caught growing. The less stinky the better -just so long as the THC levels were...
