My dad actually thought he was a Sultan - such a deluded individual.
I'm trying to get more cannabinoids and going more for a whole spectrum kind of thing. There's so much we don't know about which chemicals in cannabis are beneficial in conjunction with the THC and CBD that most focus on. I reduce to one quarter of the starting volume and use a syringe to dose. Anywhere from 8-14 drops is a heavy dose for me and I weigh 275. My wife is less than half my weight and likes 6-8 drops. I just picked up 1.75 liters of 190 so I'll be starting a batch tonight hopefully. I'll take some pics of the tincture when I pull it out so you can see the color difference. Gray wolf used to have a great thread on tincture but they lost the server and all the archived info. The lab tests I have seen show maximum THC extraction usually occurs by day 4 or so and I give them the extra three to absorb as much of the other goodies as possible.
The Doubletree.
I just drove into town and for the first time since the fires got bad we have a ton of smoke in the valley. It looks like fog hanging low over everything. I was going to stop for a picture but there's no place to pullover safely on the back roads.
@Singlemalt said freeze everything the night before and then shake it hard for 30-45 seconds but no longer than 1 minute. After that it's chlorophyll. One drop flattened me.
I've got some of his Chicken Dinner on the table and it's the best plant of all of them. Congratulations, I look forward to pics and reports.
Are they using Ethanol or Isopropyl? I know a lot that use Isopropyl alcohol do the quick wash technique but I'm not sure if it's a more aggressive solvent than Everclear. I wish we had more PhD's running lab tests with this kind of stuff. It's normally how I use weed and only smoke late at night so small improvements in the process could make it much better for me.
Everclear 190

I blast a fan across the measuring cup and put the kitchen exhaust fan on as I do it on top of the stove. Better safe than sorry as I've seen horrible accidents with evapping butane for shatter and I'm guessing the fire isn't much less with the 190 proof.FYI https://www.alchimiaweb.com/blogen/cannabis-extractions-alcohol/
Edit: I stop at having the tincture and don't evap out the alcohol. If I was going to it would be outdoors not in the kitchen, I'm not redecorating the kitchen again because of alcohol fumes.
So you're the send the kid away for the summer type, eh?
Sounds fun! I hope you get some great times going on your vacation. I'm alright. got done with a worrying surgery, and now I am back to smoking as much as I like. bwuhuhuhuhuhuha. Have you been to canada a lot before?
