The trouble with that is that once the pigment gets bleached below a certain level, the cannabinoids will begin to photopolymerize.

Over the years I’ve found three great (?) ways to turn dabs into varnish:
- expose to air for a year or three
- store in silicone containers (brittle crap after six weeks!)
- expose to sun for some weeks/months.

Stradivari’s violins are said by some to be what they are due to a tacky, very slow-setting varnish formula that he took to his grave. I sometimes wonder how a varnish formula incorporating cannabis distillate would have sounded.
..and would Sativa or Indica give it's personality a voice/tone?

I thought of that, but he only left his jars of wash in the sun in beakers for 1 hour and they lightened up considerably. He didn't do any winterizing and he did a really long wash too I think (I watched several videos today) . But I'm sure even that 1 hour did damage. I was more impressed with the water distiller trick!

If it was one hour, I doubt that did much or noticeable damage.

I like the water distiller! You have to be very careful to catch it before dryness. Water takes serious watts to distill, so you could overheat your extract.

The following is the sort of risky lab cowboy antic I used to love. If you use an IR thermometer and take your oil to a final temp of say 110 Celsius (taking great care not to overshoot ...might want to practice with alcohol and a pat of butter) it’s also decarbed! You really have to stay on top of it though, because with a kilowatt-plus heating element there is maybe a minute between just right and thick white smoke. The devil’s own hotbox.

The water distiller is a good tool for increasing your EtOH proof; the 1st vid guy complained that he could only get 75% in his province as opposed to going to the US for everclear. He could buy his 75% and distill it to higher proof. The problem I see is that he will decarbox his oil in his distillation step and his heated evap step. Great for edibles but no so great for vaping. I never use heat, but then I also don't recycle/recover my alcohol

Wow! I just watched the first 3 fights of the main card of UFC 261. The leg injuries were insane. The first match between Anthony Smith and Jimmy Crute has Tony kicking Jimmy in a nerve below the knee, which turned Jimmy's leg into a floppy mess and they had to stop the fight. Jimmy is such a savage that he wanted to continue the fight! The leg looked like it was broken, but it was simply a damaged nerve -



Now for the horror! The very next match between uriah hall vs chris weidman, FUCK... The very first strike of the match was Weidman's kick to Hall's knee. Weidman shattered HIS OWN LEG ON URIAH'S KNEE!!! His shin bone just cracked in half, and to make matters worse, HE STEPPED BACK ON THE LEG! It doesn't even look real, it is so horrible. Worst injury I've ever seen in the UFC, even worse than when that dude punched that other dude's ear off. This video won't be up long, mercifully. If you want to see it, you barbarian, here you go -




This sport is no joke, don't try this at home, kids...

Enjoyed the shit out of the 7 game set Padres v Dodgers !! How the dodgers blow a 6 run lead late to lose the series is unacceptable.

So cal pro ball looking real good early in the year . This week I gotta invest little more time in the angels see what their bringing to the table .

Baseball. I don't like it. I was traumatized as a child. I played Little League for a couple years and my father was a coach on the team. He had played in College and was really good but I couldn't meet his expectations. He'd get frustrated at me and yell in front of everyone. He wanted me to be good but I wasn't and didn't even want to play.

But a few years later I made him proud in Gymnastics which I liked much better than a team sport. It was just me and the Pommel Horse, Rings, and Parallel Bars. I can still walk around on my hands.

I found one that has an adjustable thermostat and from reading the reviews, people are using it for cannabis oil. Food grade stainless, and even comes with a glass carafe!

The same thing happened to Anderson Silva against Chris Weidman. When I saw I was like well shit, I guess it’s his turn.

The whole main card was great!

Yep ,I get it & was that lil to some degree w/my 2 student/athletes . Nothing like the elite travel ball coaches, mental & physical warfare going after a summer national championship from 10u-18u .

The savagery on these kids is unbelievable but you get your kids at a top 20 d1 school playing for a ncaa ring or the ivy Leagues or equivalent for education paid in full by them,hard to say little scar tissue isn’t worth it .

Are insects really natures cleanup crew that remove plants that should not be consumed by higher order forms of life?
Some say it's natural selection.

But what if the plant is weak because I fucked something up? (Not that I would ever do that. :eyesmoke:)
That would be unnatural and the plant is a victim.

I feel obligated to help.
:peace:
