CBD I understood to be the acronym for cannabidiol. I have been working with the R4 strain from GreenWerks in Colo. I have one patient with three discs compressing his spinal column to the extent his butt and legs are normally numb, making walking difficult. He tried just legal pot, got a tiny...

Letting the plants die after seven months of growth by frost is no big deal, other than the size of the plants. Never seen 'soggy' plants, a bit droopy, but it is very dry here, 10-20 RH%. I get about a kilo of trimmed bud per plant, and what I had tested a couple of seasons ago was 22% THC. No...

What is the risk, it has worked well for me for decades...

WRT curing, I like growing outdoors, and letting the first couple of frosts cause the chlorophyll to convert to carotenes. Gets rid of that green taste right off the bat.

I would want to know what oil the CBD is mixed with. It could be a vegetable oil, not sure I'd want to vape that. What is 95% ethanol based disinfection (disinfectant?)? Use an alcohol meant for human consumption, or high % isopropanol.

I get good results from using my large leaves. I replace 1 cup of flour with 100 grams of finely ground leaf, add an extra egg and tablespoon of water in a regular brownie recipe, although I usually double the chocolate as well. I cut this up into 105 (7 X 15) brownies using an 11" X 17" baking...

I have to agree with you on several points, also being a high THC tolerance person, and a month away from a year using concentrates. I was smoking 5-7 gms of 20%+ THC buds a day. Way too much. Discovered R4 for a friend, and have been playing with a 1:1 CBD:THC blend of extract, both for vaping...

I'm in the Roaring Fork Valley. The rec prices are through the roof. I kept my medical registration for that reason.

Do you think the CBDs need decarboxylation? I don't recall them being in an acid form like the THC-A.

We had no recreational shops nor sales available on the western slope until well into 2014, although rec went legal January 2013. I did not know Denver has had rec available for a year and a half now.

Simply that rec was legalized, but no legal outlet could sell it for a year.

With the V-hit B one can get a good 4-6 hits, with the Glacier; 8-12 ridiculous hits, for under $20... I found the PEG in the O.pen Vape catridges last August, that was post-rec in CO, but no availability until this year.

The O.pen Vape cartridges I've seen claim to use Poly-Ethylene Glycol, not Poly-Propylene Glycol. Someone said the PEG mixture is less likely to separate in time. I developed an allergy to PEG after three month usage in cannabis vaping, and switched to PG only. I don't need a long shelf life for...

Another strain in Colorado high in CBD is 'R4', tests at >18% CBD, and less than 1% THC. I have a patient with permanent spinal compression, and normally has no feeling in his butt nor legs. Traditional medicine offers no relief. He found some relief through smoking pot, but can't tolerate the...

It would be interesting to know what solvents were used. Were they winterized? I find soft waxes annoying to work with for e-vaping. They melt inconsistently, having less mass. If I buy a wax for a taste treat, I dissolve it in ethanol, maybe 1/2 oz/gram, and let it dry on glass at 90°F, makes...

"Ive heard alot if talk about this lately. Imo why would you want to adulterate your oil." I was looking for something to make shatter/wax an oil that would work in an e-cig. The intent in adding back in the light terpenes like limonene and eucalyptol was to avaoid unnatural substances like PG...

I have been very happy with the Seego V-hit Type B atomizer for wax/oil. It works best with shatter, not the waxy porous material. Near the bottom of this page: http://www.vapes.com/wax-and-oil-atomizers/

Adding back the natural terpenes was something that interested me as well. I got some eucalyptol which is a naturally occurring terpene. I find it leaves some little flakes of something in the extract undissolved. Limonene was the next thing to look at. I found a source for essential oils, they...

I agree, winterizing leaves less residue. I have been using a Seego V-Hit B, and find I can clean the vaping coil head by soaking it in Everclear for a couple of hours. I would recommend using the Everclear for winterizing too, I use about 4:1 alcohol to oil. The oil/wax is a lot more soluble in...

While I think 150° is too high, people who are vacuum purging at 115° are using a higher effective temperature than 115° because the vapor pressure is lower under vacuum. I live at 6600' altitude. Water boils at 200° here, not 212°. Retention of the lighter terpenes is imperative for flavor. I...
