Wow, 2 lbs per light. Very nice, she must be a real producer.
Wonderberry, that's a strain I've heard about but not recently. Is that williams wonder x blueberry?

I dont know how you can grow and not partake. Thats like being a vegetarian cattle rancher.

Wonder berry is williams wonder x bubbleberry (bubblegumxblueberry). Djxx I dont run co2 just 1k hortiluxes w botanicare nutes and a lot of tlc and tying lol. I flower for 60ish and flush till 70. This cycle got 7 days of flush. I use to partake but I was keeping most of my crop to myself, so I found its more productive for me to just grow

Actually I didnt do much training. Its a very short strain so instead of stretching it goes straight to flower. The only thing I do is tie the heavy branches . I lollipop and tie.

No smart meters where i live. I only have a heater ATM. The central ac is broke but I got a mini split for the room. My electric bill is usually under 80 a month I don't have a lot of electronics besides a huge tv so my electric bill won't be too high I'm just scared of it doubling and the "man" getting suspicious

You will most likely see your bill double..not that its a bad thing. I would not do the 2k to start with. I use 1k with fans/heating etc. and probably run 70-90 month just for that. Power company wont balk at that if you pay on time. You could probably get a little more efficient then me (basement coal room grow) but not by much. As you can tell by the locale of my room I am probably in your general vicinity. Start slow then ramp up as you go. We have pretty decent (not the best) electrical prices around here in comparison to other parts.

Rule number 1---dont steal
Rule number 2---pay on time

follow those rules and you will be ok

Decarboxylate the bud before cooking it in the butter. It's basically heating it up in an enclosed dish, allowing it to cool fully (before opening it), and then cooking with it or making it into some sort of topical or pill.
Basically the same thing that happens when bud is smoked, its removing a co2 group or something, turning the thc-a (which is non psychoactive) to thc (the psychoactive thc).

i suppose cooking it with the butter heats it up as well, achieving the same effect, although ime i think its stronger if you decarb first.

I'm not sure we have the 'definitive' answer on the decarb thing.... as to how much time, what heat, water/no water......

And how much cumulative heat before decomposition, and loss of potency. (I too, like my COOKIES) :biggrin:

and on that note.......

What causes some batches to take 1.5-2 hours to kick in? And other batches to only hit at 45 minutes to an hour????

And if you only cook the mash once..... How much do you throw away?

Questions for the ages!

And what if you want to make something that doesn't need cooking.... lol

I've gone from 14 to 15 hours cook time, to as little as half a day... and Still only need half a cookie 'make my day'.

Forgot to decarb once, didn't notice a difference. ??? or did I???

Of course I bake them at 350*F.....

I think that potency has a way of making edibles kick in sooner. Also, I've noticed that the longer I chew on 'em they kick in sooner. Possibly a sublingual effect?

I've never decarbed first, i figure if the exctraction goes fine, the cooking of the food product will definitely decarb.

Thats funny you posted that pic here dj I was just askin you about those leds on the actual thread lol. And as for my cookie method I simmered 1 z / lb of butter on around 200 degrees w 1qt of water in a sauce pan for about 4 hrs the cooked the cookies at 375 degrees. About 1 cookie does the trick for me but I dont smoke and hardly ever do edibles so I guess im a lightweight now lol

LED's, eh? Have they come down in price a lot? I remember looking at those 2-3 years ago and they were like $400 for the smaller sets. Just nuts. but maybe chinese knockoffs have flooded the market since then...
Is that the forum girl scout cookies cut, DJ?

I try to keep my bake temps at 300 or less, so maybe if i cook at normal temps (350-375) ill achieve the decarb effect during the bake.
Have to try that cinnamon too, if only for the taste neutralization. And chew each bite 50 times, anorexic style, like Truth.
