don't let yourself think about what it cost you...think about what it's gonna gain you...that's one of the ways i get inspired

Lovely show you got here nameless... I've been lurking...
Edible dosage, a lot depends on solvent and the limits of solubility. My go to 100mg/g in coconut oil. I've gone up to 500mg/g but things get real hard to mix and emulsify the higher you go. Then the coconut oil is ingested directly or used for whatever edibles you're looking to make.
Throwing a little ethanol in with the rosin will probably help evenly distribute and increases solubility... Most is cooked away depending on methods (baking, gummies, etc), and even then, a little ethanol doesn't hurt, imo, just enough to get the starting extract to dissolve a bit. I like to use this method when going glycerin, as it seems to have a much harder time getting extracts to dissolve.
But, 100mg dosage, if decarbed and done right, sets me right on my ass... But, not a big edible guy, nor a real high tolerance. 500mg and I'm sleeping for the next 12 hours.
Hope this helps, I'll be watching
Good vibes

good tip lou! im glad your still around and kicking. ive got three different molds for shapes to distinguish between the candies. one will be hash (i have 7g of bubble hash) one will be rosin (have 7g rosin too) and one will be cbd/thc (looking for recommendations on cbd to order still) so hopefully i can start supplying myself with dependable pain relief and generating data to track and compile.
new lens came in, just an 18-55 to give me a closer range over my old 28-80. i got a wide angle attachment for now (35$ vs 350) so i can get the pics back up to snuff. i forgot the on board flash isnt tall enough to clear the front of the attachment, so im waiting on a new flash now.

heres the first recipe for the chocolate. i tried one yesterday and think it might have been a bit strong. my eyes were all fucked up for about three hours. i dont think i could have gotten away with being in public. even after 3x applications of eye drops i had very red eyes.
i think these are closer to 80mgs. but i estimate hash at 50% generally, which would mean this particular recipe would give you 15 chocolates at 67 mg each
i have 7g hash (precarb) for cooking
decarb - baked in oven at 225 degrees for 22 min. i didnt weigh it but i feel like it lost decent weight.
took that right out of the oven and scraped up 2 g
and put it straight into a non stick pot that already had 1.5 tablespoons of coconut oil on warm/low setting. i dissolved it into this over the course of 10 mins, just shaking the pot and keeping the heat very low.

they do taste pretty strongly of weed, but not too bad and it goes away quickly. they seem to be fucking me up more than i expected... even now at 45 mins in on day #2 i feel like my legs are tied to balloons and that maybe i should make them weaker next time lol. will continue to evolve and experiment with what works best for me. next cookery will be with rosin! but maybe an update first? tonight is the last night of 18 hrs, then we do the flippity flop!
Diggin' that heart mold. I have quite a few....superman logo, cannabis leaf, Halloween themed(skulls, pumpkins, skulls) . Everytime I go to a store I check out their baking section looking for different styles.
yeah! i got these in a three pack with seashells and stars. the chocolate is so easy to make i think i will start keeping an eye out for fun shapes. maybe some blue dolphins or transformers.... oh i had some louie v ones once that were dope... lol.
i think these might not store well at room temp because of the coconut oil, i might do some experimenting with different brands and types. no organic chocolate for baking at the local store.

lights off for 48 hrs, monday will start day 1 of flowering.
plants are all around 20-22" and have been fimmed and supercropped.
yellow clover is coming in good. i still have to organize the cables, i just got more zip ties this morning
here you can see some of the slight fuckery i spoke of, they are pushing past it just like they have before when i have let the dirt dry out.
i put in some moisture meters for when i cant see the soil

I was just in a large greenhouse where they use clover in long raised beds. They claim it reduces water consumption? Whats you experience? Any benefits you've had?
