If you've been doing this hobby for any length of time, you're bound to have run into problems like powdery mildew, leaf blight and other fungal issues. Once you get one of these it can be tough if not impossible to get rid of depending on your space. Basements can be particularly problematic...

And that's good advice to LOOK like you're a good upstanding citizen, it's all about perception. When I went in for my court date there were more than a dozen cases in front of me and I was amazed at how many of the defendants look like shit, I mean they didn't look like junkies or riff-raff...

I agree, I'm keeping it clean for the most part except for the insomnia attacks, but I suppose for 3-4 weeks I could just take the Ambien every night just to make sure I get sleep. Getting off with just 6 months is something of a blessing and I DON'T want to end up stuck back in the cycle...

That SBCOUPONS10 is still good, although just $10 - better than a sharp stick in the eye I suppose, pays for shipping at least, lol. ;?)

Hey dudes, I've been on a "holiday" of sorts, but now getting ready to jump back in and looking for some new strains. I've read some of these post on Cannarado genetics, sounds like they've got the goods, so I'm curious about something called Cherry Fucker, I just love that name, lol. I utfse...

So several months ago I ended up getting popped at the airport for some cannabis extracts that I was taking in my luggage - yeah sounds STUPID, but I was taking them to my daughter (who lives in a state that still hasn't implemented medical MJ regulations) due to a medical condition she suffers...

I will add that this was over 18 months ago and I see that OES has grown quite a bit as far as the number of breeders they're dealing with, not that that should affect how they handle such cases, but bigger isn't always better sometimes. Good luck dude, please post back if/when they arrive ;?)

I've ordered from him and not only gotten great beans, but on one batch where half failed to pop, he sent me new ones with no questions asked (and some nice freebies ;?).

Gotta be careful what you read on those boards, I spent a lot of time there over a year ago and after reading THOUSANDS of posts, I realized that the majority of the posters didn't really know any more than most people, with the rare exception or three. The rest were either cheerleaders...

USMJ and PURA These are like buying lottery tickets but with slightly better odds, lol. I currently own19 MILLION shares of USMJ - if it goes to a penny a share, it'll pay for the farm, lol. Current political climate is not the most friendly what with that WEASEL Attorney General Sessions making...

Busy, busy, busy, no rest for the wicked, lol, but then there's plenty of time to sleep when you

So I tried this with a coconut oil extraction. I put the container with the oil and herb in a coffee pot and put that in an electric wok and vegetable oil. I ran the extraction at around 240 F for an hour, during which I noticed lots of bubbles forming in the herb/oil mix. After an hour it...

Here's a great tip I hadn't heard of - water washing your finished cannabutter/oil product to improve taste and appearance, I'm definitly doing this right now with a batch of butter I made from an ethanol extraction that I added to Ghee. I'll try and post pics after...

I guess I'm just stubborn about avoiding over-processing because I'd like to retain as many of the lighter phenols that tend to go first with over-heating or for too long. I guess one way is to just try it without decarboxilating first and see if the process of heating the herb/coconut oil at...

Roger on the milk solids. Have you tried a product called Ghee? You can buy it on Amazon and it's a traditional Indian food product, I think I read that it goes back over a thousand years, and is usually produced organically (and sometimes with Hindu prayers chanted during the making, although...

BTW Fogdog, did you find coconut oil better/worse than butter? I've read it's better at extracting the goods from your herb, and the added benny that it's supposed to be healthy for you, makes me want to go that route first.

So the 5hr cook was with the same method,decarbed herb in water/butter mixture at 190 F? Hadn't heard of the bitter end product before, just wondering if somewhere along the way the temps didn't spike too high (only read about a bad tasting batch with too-high temps). Wouldn't you think that 2...

I've read several articles that say pure coconut oil is better at extracting than butter, and it's supposed to be very healthy too, anyone have any XP with this? If it's a better "solvent" then maybe you'd end up with more potent product and so use less for fewer calories (although I don't have...

Also, I do like sous-vide cooking, amazing that you can take a pretty cheap cut of meat, season it and cook it in the SV cooker for 12 hrs, and it can still come out medium rare AND be as tender as a more expensive tenderloin steak (and veggies NEVER tasted so good ;?). But other than for the...

I'm wondering why, at the temps and times needed, decarboxylation is recommended when making cannabutter? Some of those recipes talk about 12 and even 24 hrs cook time, so how is that not going to decarb the end product? I'd think decarbing in advance would just cause more THC to be converted...
