Don't hate we're finally moving forward. Booby had his run and over stayed his tenure.

After 14 year in a row of finishing in the top 5 nationally, I think Bobby earned a couple extra years of sticking around. Even though Joe Pa will end up with a few more w's, he hasn't done anything to compare with what Bobby has built from scratch.

The Gators have dominated football in this state for the past five or six years, but I think it will get more competitive in the next couple years. It's amazing how disappointed I feel in a team that went 13-1. They had so much talent returning that we expected a lot more from them.

I was a Hurricane fan in the 1980's and again from 1999 to 2004. I'll start following them closely again this fall.

I have nothing but love for Bowden and everything he's done for FSU. But I hoped that he would be able to come to terms that he needed to move on. I was at the WV game and damn near came to tears watching him leave.

But the Sunshine State has dominated College football for 30 years.
Team of the Decade
80s - Hurricanes
90s - Seminoles
00s - Gators

It must hurt Mark May's soul that USC or Texas isn't on the same level as us.

I don't want to hog the thread, so this will be my last post of the day.

i got about 4 kgs of fine dry sugar trim...all i used was the work bag, 160(threw away), and the catch screen....dont have enough time to fully filter all this trim!

I made bubble hash before. When I finished, I threw the spent trim into a pot of water and butter to make cannabutter. I was amazed how much THC was left in there. I guess you have so much trim that you might not bother with it, but I would!

Also, be careful to thoroughly dry out that hash. You don't want it to get all moldy. Hopefully you know about the cardboard or the freezer method.

Finally, making BHO is more work than iso and bubble when you have that much trim, but I have long had a dream of a nine tube extraction set that could handle over a pound of trim at a time. I think it would be very efficient with the butane because most of it gets lost to evaporation. With nine tubes packed tightly together, they would stay much colder, way below 0ºF. That should keep the butane liquid long enough to dissolve the THC and run out into the collection dish.

Speaking of butane... Somebody asked where to get it. I used to buy Vector butane at Williams-Sonoma. That store is everywhere. They have the large cans of butane. The price is reasonable. And, Vector passes the mirror test. They sell it for the creme brule torch.

El-cheapo vaporizer

El-cheapo vaporizer

that rain was crazy!
what kind of vape is that joseaf? i think i may buy one in the near future

I got the unit on bay. It cost me $42.99. Money well spent!!!
I was going to purchase the Da Badda for $189. I have a VaporGenie and it is great. I use it often with I travel or stay at my mother's since the unit does not emit smoke.

The money I saved I order some seeds.

I recommend using a vaporizer because you can taste the weed and it's vapor and not smoke. I have tried 4 difference types of weed in the unit so far. The taste of weed is so damn interesting. I have one that has a black papper taste, real good. Another taste like diesel fuel with a little cirtus favor.

I use 0.3 grams of weed with the whip that comes with the unit. I think the new whip will use .1 to .2 grams. A 110mm joint uses between 1 - 1.2 grams.

Each time I use the vaporizer, I get 6 to 8 pulls from each .3 grams. After that many pulls, I am usually toasted.

:smokeit:

I don't think I have ever cooked less than a pound at a time. It is about as much work to cook 400g as 4g. I guess the ratios should still be the same though.

Is that 4g of good bud? I only use fan leaves for butter. When I have good bud, I just grind up an oz and put it into a bowl of cookie mix. If you use only 4g of bud, then you might need to eat an entire cookie or more to get high. A full batch of cookies weighs about 500-600g and about 2-5g will get me stoned. That is just a very small piece of cookie.

Ah...the joys of living in England....my super complicated front door with 5 locking pins connected via multiple shafts inside the door....won't lock this morning.

Why do the English ALWAYS outsmart themselves?

ARGH!!!

That's why I have an American Bulldog, I haven't looked my door for years!:whistling: If someone is going to come in and play with 135lbs of raging bulldog....well....be my guest!:nanana:
I suppose it might be a little hard to travel with one though, they can get a little testy so a TSA search might be a problem.... :biggrin:

I made some cannabutter day before yesterday with about oz. of trim, popcorn and vap left overs. I tried just a little last night, though it was a little late, so about when I felt the buzz..... off to lala land. I've got so much to do today I don't dare try any until tonight.
List for this weekend, Finish vent system for box 1 and 2. Go to the grow shop for some jiffy plug, rockwool, pH up and some nutes. Set up two ebb and flow units and put new mylar. Completely rearrange my veg box, install some new lights and take some clones. Finnish storage in attic and move stuff from garage to attic. Change oil in H/D and give it a general servicing.

Hope you guy have a relaxing weekend and....grow on!

I won't be able to grade until I can stay conscious long enough to tell. Hopefully tonight.

Right now I have a large squirrel cage blower from an A/C system running one 600w light. Can you say OVERKILL. I'm running a duct 25' to the other two lights ( 600w each ), those two will be running on a flip. So out of 4 lights only two run at a time. Depending on the sound I may build a muffler for it to.

And yes it is funny, I mean about running some six inch duct into my box....lol though I might be able to run a few more inches in there......

BTW, joseaf, were did you get that whip? That looks nice, mine is a real bitch to replace the screen and hole for the tube is way to small.

4 grams of bho
ill get cookies that take a stick to make 12 cookies.

Oh, BHO. That should make potent cookies. 4g of BHO probably equals about 15-30g of good bud, right? Cookie mix always calls for some fat, either butter or vegetable oil. You can dissolve the BHO in either one, in whatever quantity called for on the box.

I use fan leaves for butter, I save BHO for smoke/vapor.

gotvap.com or bay. I ordered it for ease of use. the 2pc whip is very nice. you unscrew the end and place about .2g of herbs. screw the end on and place on the vap and enjoy. I tried it out the box and woke an hour later. :)

I can't wait to try it with my new york diesel.

Awesome, I think that were I got my vaporizer from. I will order one post haste. That design is far superior to the one that mine came with! +rep
