Mate, with no snyde humour intended here, that's simply withdrawl symptoms. Perfectly normal when you back-off on something your body/brain has become used-to.

I quit caffeine a few years back & the headaches were horrendous for a good week or more. Just need to ride it out.

How long since you cut-back & from how much?

EDIT: Have you considered growing different strains from what you've normally done? 'Could be a consideration.....

Tincture report:

I decarbed 50g of quick-dried (reclaimed from the bud-rot debacle) IB buds & used the machine set on 55C for 4 hours.

I used the lower temperature based on recipe's I researched & decided on the recommended time.

Strained through the bag that comes with the unit, but there was still a lot of solids, so I then filtered it through a coffee filter.

Remember, my goal was for vapable fluid that wouldn't clog the coil. If it was destined for orally-administered tincture, I wouldn't have bothered.

DSCN2494.JPG

Only my first time. I reckon I lost about 50-75ml throughout the entire process.

The result is a really dark green. Cling-film added to prevent further evaporation.
DSCN2496.JPG

I didn't clean the machine straight away, as I had 1 Kg of stovetop ghee on the go & another 50g of buds already decarbed.

I burnt the ghee & it has a very strong caramel smell to it, but went-ahead anyway. I can see a large batch of Caramel/chocolate Brownies approaching..... @DustyDuke ?


DSCN2497.JPG

I mixed 1ml of the tincture into 4ml of my normal vape juice & gave it a go.

First impressions - FUCK! It's like inhaling alcohol (which, of course, I was!). Took a couple of bangs & waited. 5 minutes later was very pleasant. 15 minutes later was much better. Not a mind-bending thing by any means, but very pleasant. Certainly not as intense as smoking, but I'm very happy with the results & suits my purpose. Very slight taste of chlorophyll, but I put that down to the rapid dehydration.

I reckon this is something I could happily cruise-on all night if I was to have a drag on the vaper every so often.

EDIT: It's not something that induces musical inclinations or skydiving like previous Friday night indulgences....

Dont know how well it works or even if it woukd work for removin the taste of chlorophyll. But i seen a bloke after makin a tincture he left it outside for a few hours an it removed the chlorophyll from it. :confused:

Only thing that leaving it outside would remove would be the alcohol. Once the cell breaks down the chlorophyll becomes harder to remove than simply keeping it out of the product to begin with.
