    Infuse olive oil with bho

    City Market has Stainless Steel 2.5 oz condiment containers. I put a gram of wax in there with lecithin. The lecithin helps emulsify oily compounds and keeps them in solution, and probably is not needed for a salad oil mix. I put it in capsules to hopefully keep the mixture homogenized as only...

    Infuse olive oil with bho

    Yes I use that dosage for me, I might make 50-100 doses/gram for other people. People have all different tolerances, I figure it is better to make something you can take two of or more if need be rather than be OD'd on one hit. Decarbing does cause taste loss, and as much as 80% of the THC may...

    Infuse olive oil with bho

    To make cannabis capsules I regularly mix QWISO extract with coconut oil or avocado oil. You'll probably want to decarb the wax, from any extract method. I mix equal amounts of liquid lecithin and wax plus a gram or two of oil and heat it to 240-250°F for twenty minutes or until it stops...

    Around Carbondale, at 6600', it's usually June 1 to mid-October. This year was mid-June. I usually start seeds April 1. I would think in Junction you'd have 4-8 weeks longer than me. The late summer rain was hard on my crop this year, making the plants too heavy to hold themselves up.

    concentrates

    Thanks for the video Grow Goddess. Their dry CO2 extraction looks interesting and it's fast. I've been having good luck remedying chlorophyll with 20-30 minutes of sunlight if my second QWISO rinse gets a little green.

    Has anyone grown out R4 seeds? (cbd)

    I just did an extraction of R4, QWISO'd four oz. The wax is a deep amber color, no heating over 100°F, from fresh buds. I was just surprised that it was that dark, other fresh material is much lighter, towards yellow. Maybe it is the CBD instead of THC content that makes it so. I was also...

    Making alcohol tincture first time~

    Grow Goddess, I need to try your natural decarbing method, sounds great. While heating is quick, I suspect the decomposition of the THC is quick too. I made drops before, but I used oil that I had made the year before, so it was probably naturally decarbed. The oil was similar to RSO, but made...

    Western slope growers

    Hi Colorado Old Guy, I'm no spring chicken myself. I like to use lots of organic material, to keep the worms happy. You say your plants get two meters tall. Are they Indica strains. The only time I have had plants that short was this year growing the R4 strain, an Indica. My Sativa dominant...

    Mine are hiding in plain sight too. A little rough terrain, and maybe fending off a bear or mountain lion to get to it. I would just like to see how they do without crowding or shading each other for a change. Maybe next year. I want to get my ground prepped for spring, burying a lot of branches...

    Has anyone grown out R4 seeds? (cbd)

    Hey, I'm happy either way. I have twice the meds for the next year than I would have had one been a male, and a good chance of cloning in the spring. I agree, the other way would have been great to have a male and beaucoup seeds too. I assume somehow, seeds will be available soon.

    Shatter E-CIG Oil, Yes, it works!

    Thank you Grow Godess, and for your link. I had another link but it didn't reveal the full scope of your postings, seen by many as a welcome contribution I'm sure.

    Shatter E-CIG Oil, Yes, it works!

    What is your ND sap mixed with to make a liquid? What ratio? I think I read you mentioning that your natural decarbing occurs over some span of time, what are specifying that as, and what state is your extract in during this process? Thanks

    Shatter E-CIG Oil, Yes, it works!

    I have been using a 1:1 ratio with PG USP and shatter, from either BHO or QWISO processes.

    Test for purity in silicone containers (safe/unsafe? Discuss?)

    Good information, Thank you. I like glass for bulk storage. City Market/Kroger has 4" pyrex containers with a lid. Reasonably priced, a couple ounces of shatter is about 1/2" deep in the bottom. Being glass, a razor works well for getting that last dab.

    EJ Mix Ratio

    Hi GrowinDad, sounds like you are getting it down. I haven't tried the EJ Mix. Like Grow Goddess, I have used PEG400 USP, and Propylene Glycol, separately. I switched to PG as I was allergic to the PEG. I mix mine 1:1, PG to wax. I add both to a 2oz stainless condiment container which I hold in...

    Western slope growers

    Another thought on those 'self-produced' seeds. I usually have 6-7 months growing, beginning April 1, indoors, then outdoors usually by June 1. So other than varieties that come from the equatorial regions, say +/- 25°, the plants must be craving to finish up since they are way past their normal...

    Western slope growers

    This year seemed a little rougher on the finish than past years. Too much late rain, too early a killing frost, 21° on the 14th. It would have been nice to get two more weeks, but just being able to grow is great. The story I have heard on those seeds are they are prone to being hermaphrodites...

    Has anyone grown out R4 seeds? (cbd)

    It's the first time I have grown it. I got the seeds from some buds I bought, and lucked out they were both females. They do have white trichromes, just not like some of my sativa hybrids. Some R4 pollen would be ideal, but I have been combining wax from R4 in equal amounts with THC wax, and it...

    Has anyone grown out R4 seeds? (cbd)

    I don't grow Indica strains much, the R4 is different. It doesn't have a lot of trichromes compared to many plants. my experience has been that by the time the trichromes are yellow, the plant is done. I think the sun turns the trichromes yellow when the trichromes stop growing. I like...
