What did you accomplish today?

Thanks for the idea, I may have to do something like that with my potted girls. The twine around the outside just isn't cutting it.

I just made a big ol sloppy hamburger last night and fries.
This system works, I'm tellin' ya.
Took a while to get it down, but now it's EZ-PZ.

Be sure to leave a tail on the cable ties that you can grab to tighten later.
Not sure why, but they always end up a little lose and need to be tightened a click or two.

I made a frame that's triangular so it fits behind a door (not recommended, isn't very stable).

I used 5 grams of fresh bud and 250ml of olive oil. I boiled it on medium for 2 hours. The oil itself never boiled, but the buds were crispy and smelled awful when I pulled them out of the cheesecloth. The constant rattling noise coming from the kitchen for two hours almost caused a fight so I'll have to plan on trying again when I'm home alone.

bring the amount down to 3, the amount u using is ok, that amounts to a cup which is good...and i always let it get to room temp before using as well....

trust me it took me a while to get the hang of it when i learned....my first batch was a eek moment......

keep in mind i only use mine for cooking.....my cast iron pan right now is almost about infused with it.....

It's sounding like I screwed it up by letting the water level get too low and the water likely wasn't boiled on a high enough heat. Do you get a strong body high like eating edibles?

I don't want my edibles to taste good or require a large amount (since it tastes awful) to get high. I use it as medication and I worry that someone (worst case a kid) could accidentally imbibe a large dose and get quite ill. That's why I make mine strong so that I can simply swallow about a .35 gram chunk of oil. I like coconut oil because it's a solid so I don't taste it.

That's what I was thinking as well. It would be nice if I could make something and maybe take 2ml under the tongue before bed and save on buying gummies.

I make both alcohol cannabis tincture & vegetable glycerin tincture for sublingual, works well for relaxation &pain control, doesn't hit as hard as regular edible, & takes half the time to "come on "
I also hate the taste of cannabis edibles. So I do a dry ice kief, I use the kief ( decarboxylated) for the tinctures, edibles & even the medi-balms . My favorite are hash caps rather than cookies & gummies, taste too good .
