L.p.

F.y.i Seedsmans at the moment are only selling a 1/4 of what they normally would cos some breeders aren't on the books due to the virus etc
From.what I seen today attitude and herbies still have a full list of breeders for sales

i like the tracking on seedsman more than attitude

but yeah i havent looked at ordering lately during covid,

unlike some greedy bastards round here stocking up like they buying toilet rolls

:weed: :bigjoint: :bigjoint: :bigjoint:

Been mucking around with my mini flood and drain setup ended up just using a few plastic storage tubs I had laying around. I was going to build a frame but fuck it went with a tub and cut out a section to pull the res out easily, save buying more shit. If it sags where I cut the tub I’ll just put a plastic wedge in and get the materials for a frame when I go back to work. I’ll probably top feed I’ve got big halo rings I’ll chuck 2 of those in fill the table that way. I also went to the hydro shop got some clay balls and some other goodies. I’ll put 2 clones in it and se how it goes, I’ll put them under a 315w.
Only the best use those trim scissors ;) View attachment 4534256View attachment 4534257

He's gone full hydro! :eyesmoke:

I currently have 1Kg of unsalted butter simmering-down into ghee on the stovetop. Dosage-rate yet to be determined, but I think this one will be destined for the realms of "Fuck it! Let's go Postal!"

Mr Stag Semen has generously sourced a litre of pure 95% ABV rectified spirit for me (It helps to have friends in low places) which I'm going to turn into lethal tincture with the same machine. This will go towards making vapeable liquids.
How do you go from oil or tincture to vapeable liquids? I tried a bunch of ways and ratios of PG/VG and just couldnt get it to be strong enough when vaped? Gave up

fucked if i wanna scroll through hundreds of pages.
I did.

I made the EFFORT to educate myself, from a base of absolutely NOTHING. It all started because I wanted to learn how to start my chilli & tomato plants inside & that transitioned to weed. I got sucked into a vortex of possibility.....

That meant that I've spent the past 3 years trawling through hundreds & hundreds of pages of this thread alone to get specifically locally relevant information. AND THEN SOME.

'Spent countless hours/days trawling through a heap of shit & banter on this thread to find-out what I wanted to know & learn about where/how to find the stuff I needed to know about locally-sourced ingredients/soils/amendments, where to source seeds etc...etc...

I've got a massive Word document with advice, arguments, quotes, links etc....

I made an EFFORT, rather than simply ask for something to be handed to me on a plate.

When I was unsure of something I'd done my own research on, then & ONLY then, would I ask a question for clarification & input to supplement or clarify my own knowledge. I would then receive it from the cogniscenti.

There's a difference.....

And I also found that I share a warped sense of humour with others that enjoy the proceeds of this wonderfully pretty plant, whether I've indulged in its provender or not.

Sounds like you have a chip on your shoulder, you are looking way to deep into this. I just started a discussion about seedbanks. I have ordered from seed banks with success, it’s great to have a forum like this that we can share our experiences. Heaps of guys on here that have great info and share it with each other freely.
And then there are people like you......

This is something I'm yet to explore & find out for myself.

I've tried making hash oil & then dissolving it in PG/VG, & whilst I could get an effect, it's really not a good solution, as it just tends to clog the whole vaporiser & you have to keep cleaning the tank & changing the coils frequently.

The mate that just loaned me the Magic Butter machine has been using it to create alcohol-based tinctures for his wife that has horrible pain from endometriosis & has been searching for a solution for her for years.

I grew some high CBD plants for him/them last year & he told me that it works in oral tincture form, but oral administration is slow in onset & was after something that works quickly for someone who doesn't smoke plant material.

Between us, we came up with the idea of dissolving an alcohol-based tincture into a PG/VG mix that would be vapeable & have a rapid effect.

He came to my place a couple of weeks ago & we created a tincture of 85g of high CBD weed into 500ml of 95% ABV rectified spirit using the machine. I see no reason the same couldn't be done with high THC weed. His wife is yet to try it & report-back.

I'm going to try it this weekend with some of the scraps I recently collected & do a similar infusion in 95% spirit, then infuse into a PG/VG mix.

I'll try it & report back to you.

No, you didn't START a discussion about seed banks. It's been done to death. MANY times & the answers have ALWAYS been the same. You're just too lazy to do your own research.

My 2 cents not that it matters fuck all an its not based on takin sides here.... But i personally have spent the majority of my free time scrollin many of different threads here on riu an other sites on a wide range of different topics (i could list them but fuck typin for next hour) to gain as much info on all aspects of growin an all the rest of the crap that goes with it an after researchin somethin as much as i can to be able to have my own opinion on something i will then ask others on what their opion or advice may be on that topic. At the same time there is also allot of crap/useless info out there an is sometimes easier to send out a quick msg an see what others think.
